Re: Week 4 : England v New Zealand
What a totally fucking weird match that was. One question: is anyone going to ask TJP what the fuck he was thinking when he put up the box kick at the end, with not a single AB chasing it? To be fair that allowed Young's to dodge the question as why he box kicked possession away with no-one chasing
