Amps The expectation of players to be ‘perfect’ in every contact is too high a bar, regardless of whether it’s rolling away or wrapping the arms etc. It’s causing anomalies in the results. The French should be fuming.
alistair vinnyt77 sadly not. I’m left with Borthwick’s England. Launch it and keep it up the jumper. Just like his mate Jonno
alistair vinnyt77 why would I be talking about his captaincy? His record as head coach was abysmal both in results and playing style
vinnyt77 alistair Just checking who you were talking about, dude. His coaching was not as inspirational as I hoped it would be, but England won the Six Nations under his stewardship. Hardly a car-crash.
alistair vinnyt77 England have admittedly got a bit better this half but still kicking away far too much possession
vinnyt77 alistair Much better in second half. Ford > Farrell IMO. Though I have a feeling Farrell will be back for Chile / Samoa, score a hatful, and start in the ¼ final.
vinnyt77 None of what England are doing is gonna keep Farrell, Erasmus etc up at night - but they’re playing with grit. I’ll take that for now….
vinnyt77 alistair This might be where we differ. I’ll take the result every single time. I love watching Smith, when he’s not playing in a team that I want to win.
alistair vinnyt77 I wouldn’t start him in this tournament but he’s a devastating runner in midfield when the game is stretched
vinnyt77 Workmanlike, but efficient. Actually starting to believe I might see England play when I’m in Marseille in a few weeks.
Mad_Cyril Smallman1 went to bed. We are absolutely awful to watch. Surprised you still let Darren watch?
