Again

yes.good game and tight as we all new it would be.if england can just execute a touch better in second half should win handily.

Pretty poor from England, got some pretty dodgy calls otherwise they would be behind.

One bit of good play after 40 minutes does not "justify" anything. You think NZ and OZ will look at that performance and be fearing anything. Defensively England look OK, but attacking, they are so bad. They look disorganised, Chase is all over the place. Massive improvement needed.

Lets not forget, Fiji are also missing their best player very good game though but expecting a different England side second half.

has he had sex with your wife? he made a mistake get over it, he has put a few players in space this game and hasn't dropped a high ball yet which is usually your big moan.

sinfield is the strongest in the halves and rangi chase seriously isn't up to it, he isn't a bad player just not good enough at this level.

Rob borrow if he can't defend in the position he is playing why is he playing it? first big man who ran at him went past him.

Also Briscoe is having a worse game than Charnley did against Australia.
next game.

1.tomkins
6.widdop
7.sinfield
9.Roby and McIlorum interchanging

Based upon this first half, in the semi-final at Wembley it will be New Zealand 48, England 6. (HT New Zealand 30, England 0).

how is your 2nd team Tonga going again?

The coaching's the difference.

Fiji are without Akuila Uate and Sisa Waqa.

Who are England without? Gareth Widdop and ....Danny Brough maybe?

Oh hang on....why did that happen?

Roby, who imo would be the difference here

Forwards aren't creating enough go forward.

When space has been created to go wide the timing and execution is off one some of the passes.

He did drop a high ball in a previous match - as I had predicted in advance. His issue seems to be fear under pressure when people are bearing down on him. As to a "mistake" if England had any chance in this tournament (which they haven't) a single mistake would be enough to lose the final. If the England goalkeeper in fottball makes a "mistake" it's not acceptable. It shouldn't be for an England RL full back to make such a stupid mistake. Your attitude explains why we are a bunch of losers.
