| Much better from England. England seem to have had all the calls (as have all the big teams this tournament) how Cummings got an England penalty for that I'll never know!

| Robbie Burrows has made a big difference mixing it up giving Chase a bit more time and space.
Fiji have lost there defensive line all because England have upped the tempo.

No. I think he is our best attacking option and should play stand off or maybe centre. It's a waste playing him at fullback, especially with his weak defence of kicks.

i would agree with you if he was truly weak under a high ball or with kicks but he is not. as proved at the end of the game then and with a couple of other kicks.
more space opened up in the 2nd half and Rangi chase got better for it but against aus and a lesser effect new zealand it will resemble the 1st half. Tom Briscoe isn't better than charnley either.
Burrows isn't big enough in defense against aus and nz, Inglis, jennings and sonny bill running at him will hurt us.
But much improved 2nd half well done England.

| 20-25 minute England blitz killed Fiji. They couldn't get hold of the ball. Still plenty of Inprovment, particularly when we're 20m out and we aren't running through defences.
Also fed up of hearing the referees whistles in this tournament. Every game has had about 20+ penalties.

| Taking the Wigan players off made all the difference. McIlorum is not so much a poor man's Isaac Luke as a bankrupt, destitute, poverty stricken, impoverished one. O'L did nothing of note. Farrell is not big enough at this level. I'm not sure of Burrow but you can guarantee he will be on the end of any half break. Chase & Sinfield grew as the game went on. Excellent defence from both too.
