All Blacks Vs England Test Series and Fiji Exhibition matchthread

[Kiwias]

ABs have raised the pace of their game significantly and England struggling to keep pace

[OomStruisbaai]

That's the ball game.

[Bloutoria]

England suffering with this tempo.

[ASMO]

England have lost this game due to 2 reasons, the inability to turn pressure into points and Freddy Steward

[OomStruisbaai]

England bomb squad explode.

[Kiwias]

Itoje's first mistake?

[Hal Jordan]

We need some dynamism off the bench, do we have any, because Coles, Coles and Rudd ain't it, and Curry is not Test match fit.

[Enzedder]

What a scrum

[Kiwias]

Monster scrum!!

[Bloutoria]

They needed a 7-1 split...

[petej]

We need some dynamism off the bench, do we have any, because Coles, Coles and Rudd ain't it, and Curry is not Test match fit.

And the only one that does in Dan gets a head knock.

[Chilli2]

All those rugby players and the Poms can't find 4 decent props?

[Hal Jordan]

Rodd got mulched.

England have offered nothing since the hour mark.

[OomStruisbaai]

That's the difference between the Springboks and the rest

[ASMO]

England just falling apart, as mentioned earlier, the subs are just not international quality

[sockwithaticket]

4th Itoje penalty?

It's a shame his more visible performances also seem to come with a fairly high penalty count.

Rodd got mulched.

England have offered nothing since the hour mark.

Same as last week really. Finally quarter was a total nothingburger.

[Kiwias]

Why would England kick possession away?

[ASMO]

Oh look, 4 mins to go and Slade kicks it away, useless cunt

[Oxbow]

Slade kicking it away ffs.

[Hal Jordan]

Commentator: England management would have liked to have seen more from Sleightholme.

Us: We don't believe you.

[Kiwias]

Reece absolutely skinned there

[ASMO]

Banjo boy already shown in 5 mins why he should have started

[Oxbow]

Sleightholme is wasted on the bench.

[petej]

Sleightholme is such an obvious threat based on form.

[Enzedder]

FFS Jordie, learn to fucking tackle

[sockwithaticket]

No fucking way was that turned over legally.

[Insane_Homer]

Please be a pen try

[Bloutoria]

Penalty try loading...

[Hal Jordan]

No try, blow up and go home FFS.

[Insane_Homer]

Clear arm around the neck of ball carrier on his way to the line.

[petej]

No try, blow up and go home FFS.

Yep.

[Enzedder]

Correct call coming.

[Paddington Bear]

They’re bound the whole time

[Kiwias]

Clear arm around the neck of ball carrier on his way to the line.

Not the ball carrier and he was in front of the ball carrier. Penalty against England

[Enzedder]

Clear arm around the neck of ball carrier on his way to the line.

Had to do that due to the obstruction which came first

[Bloutoria]

[Insane_Homer]

Yup, that seems to be the case.

[Hal Jordan]

The difference was the benches, frankly. Pretty much even Stevens until the subs started coming on.

Thanks, England

[Paddington Bear]

Ah well. If we hadn’t spent the whole second half kicking the ball away we wouldn’t have had that sewn up.

Another great game, congrats ABs. Proud of our efforts at the end of a long season
