How was that not crossing for the SA first try?0

Having watched Chile find huge gaps in the Japanese defence, today, I would say it’s even easier than expected.pblakeney said:

As I said earlier, we couldn't have hand picked an easier group.
It’s not only a travesty, but should ensure England come through the group stage in better nick than the rest."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
Their defence was excellent to be fair though. 14 men managed to stop Argentina scoring for 70 minutes. Even if Argentina look like they’d never seen a rugby ball before at times that was pretty impressive.Dorset_Boy said:England are doing what they are doing well, but haven't threatened ball in hand at all, and never looked like scoring other than through Ford's boot, but Argentina have been terrible.
It's papering over a few of the gaping England cracks.0 -
Some break by George there @blazing_saddles0

Good start thrown away by poor tackling0
-
Biggar went for the ball, not the tackle.0

Fiji attacking in a way that England and Borthwick couldn't even imagine.

Can Shaun Edwards come back and sort this shambolic defence out?0

To be fair, when have England ever attacked like Fiji? 😂0 -
It's a bugbear of mine that England never went after Edwards and let people like AF be sacked. Anyone that doesn't fit the RFU mould is discarded.0

Also the likes of Balshaw before the Lions used him as a battering ram.0 -
Good point, to be fair I was being a bit tongue in cheek!0
-
Good game for us neutrals so far.0

Biggar has been to the Farrell tackle school - he'll get a red card if he doesn't wise up.0
-
No arms tackle. Has to be penalty try0
-
Terrible decision.0
-
Getting away with a few here. Fiji know they just have to run hard at the Welsh defence and they’ll break through.0
-
That sort of thing annoys me. Ref says use it as the scrum half has hands on the ball and they decide to take it back into the maul where it gets tied up and they lose the ball. Stupid play.0
-
I'm confused, was the rationale on the no arms that they only had one tv angle and it was inconclusive?
It was clear as bloody day!0 -
Biggar needs to STFU as his missed tackles cost the first try. Gobshite.1
-
He wasn't wrong though. Clock red, in front and in your in goal area? Probably kick it out.Pross said:Biggar needs to STFU as his missed tackles cost the first try. Gobshite.

I can’t watch.Pross said:Some break by George there @blazing_saddles
Too much stress.
Going to watch first half now.
Becks is out there soon. Staying in a certain cyclist’s place in Montecarlo.
So somebody might as well carry on in the Vuelta.
