Very one-sided. England 35-7 up after 35 minutes.

Geezuz. And people worry about the ABs throwing away caps...

I recognised a heck of a lot more Fijians today than I do English.

Some good young players in this England squad. I think at lot of them will be back in the Autumn and the next Six Nations ahead of the so-called bigger names.

Finished up 70-14. Adam Radwam (debut) and Jamie Blamire (2nd cap) of Newcastle Falcons both scored hat-tricks.

Great job by England

Just when you thought ITV were the bottom of the barrel, along come C4

Amateurs

@mikethesnow Can't be worse the ITV team on Wednesday not realising for at least ten minutes that Denmark only had 10 men.

So we're not expecting England to do very well again?

@bones Favourites for 2023 RWC iMHO.

Not if a lot of the school kids I saw today are involved.

Their best players may wel be somewhere else, possibly?

I got 5. Does that make me a bad rugby fan?

I must admit, if the obvious doesn't need stating, you're a master at doing so.

Now if you take my comment in the context of a lot of the *nobodies" being the future of England and making them favourites for 2023.... can you add something better? ,

Not if Eddie Jones is their coach.

I think he is trying to unfurl a very long joke/setup about how unbeatable England would be if they played the ABs again.
At the moment I think that is a rather dangerous ploy.
