Apparently still loads of people outside the stadium trying to get tickets?!

Very average performance so far. Kiwis bossing it. Kicking game is very poor.

pretty dire game in all honesty

The ref has ruined this game so far.
2 tired teams so far.

The camera work by the bbc is awful. Just glad I'm not watching the game after a few pints!

I hope the NZ v England game is coming across better on TV, because in the flesh it's slow, boring and lacking in nearly all attacking flair.

Both teams have been poor, like they are afraid to lose.

I remain clueless as to what McNamara thinks Widdop brings to this team ahead of Gale. At least Gale has energy. Our attack is terrible. Defence is solid enough. Saving grace us that the Kiwis aren't using their superior talent in the backs.

nope.That is a fair summary

Watkins and Burgess touched the ball about twice each in that first half.Criminal under use of the three quarters

It is shiite. not a good advert for the game,


I saw a lot of better games in the RUWC.

Widdop is crap and we have no one who can kick.

Gale in next week win or lose.

It is like both sides are playing without half backs. Can only get better imo

Gareth Widdop is ridiculously average,

The milking of penalties at the PTB is IMHO bringing the game into disrepute.

Needs to be stamped down on.

We need to learn how to attack. Not sure McBanana is the coach to do that.
