Just.
Take the lucky win. Flush the dunny. Move on.
Lucky? Nah.
Should have 10 up at half time.
Last 20 we were on top.
Deserved, but deservedly close.

Good to get a win to start the year. We're never at our best to start the season off and will be much better for the run. It's tough coming together so soon after the end of the domestic season against a tough physical England side who gave it to us.
Man Razor looked like a nervous wreck up there. Welcome to international rugby.

Happy to get the win in the end , losing sucks more

We’re really missing a world-class 7. Pleased to get a lucky win there.

Savea is a great player, but when he plays so loose... It utterly fucks the make up of our loosies..
-
@mariner4life Yes!
-
@Darth-Sader GOAT still looks fit.

Newell with Aumua next to him is lethal.
Aunua has made a difference since he's been on. VG impact

Hard win, rusty as fuck and England very good. Especially defence, we still don't know how to deal with rush defence, almost a decade and still haven't figured it. Need more munters like aumua, people who can make fucking metres up the middle
Totally agree. Well said that man !!

bring back foster
And we would lose by 30
I see little difference to be honest. If anything we’ve gone backwards.
Backwards from the peak of RWC, with less than two weeks to prep. No surprise.

Am liking Jamie George.
Nice bloke.
Why can't he be a fluffybunny so I hate him?

Sounds like Sititi if they can develop him
-
I hate we still are not a turnover threat. Teams keep the ball for phase after phase

IMO he just doesn't get involved enough early in the game. Should be on the bench to wreak havoc in the second half.

Well done NZ
I called England winning the series 2-0 a month or so back and they should have been going to Eden Park 1 ahead with their tails up
The door should have been shut with 20 mins to go
NZ didn't panic, played the long game knowing England can't score from deep, and got tighter and more precise as the match wore on
Thoroughly deserved their win
NZ will now win the series 2-0
Comfortably

That George Furbank is fucking handy.

We won, be happy. Overall looks like we trying to find new game plan. Thought our tactical kicking was poor compared to English who had good plan. Noticed one change was how they seemed to use 9 as like first receiver in general play. A few times FC got the pass from winger and had no idea when facing rush defence. Happens more than once so looked like a plan. Interesting to see how coaching staff adapt
