Witth England it's either forwards OR it's backs. We've not really caught up with the 15 man game concept.
it's all the practice you get playing without 15 men ;)

At least. His lack of pace for an international wing is hilarious.

Very good, really good, impressive, excellent, liking the intent to attack, great speed of play, etc etc etc. We're playing fucking Chile you clowns. And even, there's been a ton of crap play so far.

If we try and play like this against any of the better teams, they'll eviscerate us. Support play is still poor and there are ample opportunities for non tier 2 teams to disrupt or steal the ball.

This
Yeah we arent going to play like this vs anyone else. Its a mostly B side throwing the ball around vs mostly amatuers it tells us almost nothing about England.

Plenty of reasons to be realistically negative about us going further than the quarters..this performance is not one of them.
