There were like three go's at heaving that over the line. Correct decision.

The fact that Chessum looks confused says a lot.

You are beyond delusional if you think a loss would change Borthwick's thinking.
Borthers is clearly immune, but the RFU had been very uncomfortable of late until England managing to cobble together drew the spotlight. Seeing England regress again ought to to stoke the fires of discontent among supporters and the media.

Samoa's repeated failure to execute their kicks has finally come back to bite on the arse.

{EDIT} Bar the obstruction and fwd pass :lol:

To be honest Samoa haven't been great really, and look a bit weary now. Any competent team would be doing them in the last quarter regardless of the performance so far.

Should it really be a penalty? Samoa were trying to help us.

I’m just so pleased we get Fiji in the quarters. Fiji in the semis is awesome.

On the positive side, Smith yet again taking it to the line and creating holes.

Good point, well made, but perhaps should have added he is an "England" lock.

That Itoje guy is doing his best but wasn't there another guy with that name who was world class?

That's a full hand I need to count spider cam hits in rugby and football this year.

They need to do a better job of it, no ways should that be interfering with play.

Ah Wong has looked amazingly good for a guy who has had more clubs than Jack Nicklaus.

Apart from "Played for Borthwick at Leicester" I really don't see what George Martin brings to the team.

Doesn't look like they're thinking, they have these set plays to follow and that's it.. Drawing in before offloading, nope plan is to pass wide.

Midfield looks better with Lawrence and Marchant which surprises no England fan at all.

As I recall, you South Africans were keen proponents of the twat DJ during any stoppage of play.
