Rugby World Cup Japan 2019

[Paddingtonwolf]

Oh absolutely. Lawes pinching the lineout was rather just.

 

[Sniffer]

Might regret the chances we've already had in their 22.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

May giving the perfect example of how to deal with the cross field kick. Let them catch it and knock them straight into touch. Excellent.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

If there is no TMO for obstruction that is brilliant

 

[Sniffer]

Fabulous

 

[Tredman]

Hmm, not sure about that.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That's a shame. England played brilliantly to engineer the chance but the TMO is right.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

The New Zealand lock moved to tackle the dummy runner which left the gap for Underhill to run through. Its probably fair enough, but a real shame.

Complete non-Rugby fan but seems weird to me that England were punished for what seemed nothing more than a NZ player being an air head and committing to tackle someone that hadn't even received the ball.

 

[Sniffer]

Put ourselves under pressure with a shit kick by Ford. Well defended..

 

[Nando]

Aye, no real complaints. You'd be peeved if it went the other way for sure.

That's what the run is designed to do, and that's against the rules unfortunately.

No way this pace can keep up. They will be towing caravans by 55 minutes.

 

[Sniffer]

Need points before half time to make the first half domination complete.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

If New Zealand walk off 7-0 down they will be delighted.

 

[Tredman]

Brilliant first half. Whatever happens now Eddie Jones has shown he’s got this perfectly right.

 

[BillyDee]

Shame we left a few points out there, and gutted for Underhill to be denied again. We've shown the ABs are beatable, just hope we can keep it up.

 

[Sniffer]

Fabulous 1st half by England.. I think New Zealand will be happy they're still in with a chance.

Insurance bet placed on the Kiwis at half time. Still shit odds considering they've got a 10 point handicap.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Possibly the best half I've seen us have since 2003.

They've had absolutely nothing, not a single chance.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That was a truly sensational 40 minutes by England. Stunning.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

The New Zealand line out is totally dysfunctional. Why are they persisting with throwing to Read when Lawes clearly has him beaten all ends up in the air?
