I'd take a Balshaw over a Steward

the problem is with the rush defence England employ, if the other team gets outside that, you need the FB to have the pace to get over and cover, Freddy for all his positive attributes has the turning speed of an oil tanker and the top end pace of a pedalo, the AB's wingers will just run around him for fun.

Nervous as hell about this one, much more so than last week. I'd be happy with another 1-point win against this very good England side, tbh.

Razor has looked at England's game - lets see if he can get the players to get around that. I think he has the players and we should have this if Christie can get them moving a lot quicker than last week.

Dmac needs to test them a bit more as well (if that is in the game plan)

If not, this link is working. Best on a Brave browser as it stops the pop-ups.

It looked to me that he was taken out in the air there, wasn't called, so there we go, but I'd like to see it again.

NZ punished for showboating there. Astonishing. Huge let off from some sloppy stuff from England
