@African-Monkey thats the thing, cant be fooled by a big score, similarly by messy play given the way these games are played...we always score too fee or it was too easy and we score too many

It's the quick taps that are probably annoying me the most. I'd ather we at lest try to play more structured and to the set piece more in the 2nd half.

ACT Crusader

Good start. Better speed and alignment on the defensive line. No missed tackles.

Tbh with how crap we started it is impressive how many points we can score in a short amount of time. 43 in 30 mins, especially playing without wingers.

Our offense is a step above from previous years.

Pffft, they got smoked at home by Fiji and Italy.

Japan can't tackle.

Ok. And Englands TOP team (who are probably the 5th best team in the world currently) only put 50 on them, while we could hit 70-80 with a B team.

We're beating the clock currently and people are pissed it's quite astounding 😂

Wouldn't say I'm personally pissed myself, but I'm not fooled by what I'm seeing either against crap opposition.

A fixture we're learning nothing from.

I agree we don't learn much from this. More so directed at some others claiming we are going to get smashed the rest of the tour following the performance this half.

Didn’t realise Blackadder was playing?

taniwharugby

@KiwiMurph esp as he had his jersey grabbed before he got the ball

Victor Meldrew

Roigard scores at 43 mins. Only 6 more tries in the next 37 minutes from the bloke and he'll be back to his best
