Smallman1 Enjoy mate. Gutted not to be there. Have wanted to be at an England / New Zealand game as long as I’ve played/watched rugby…

Smallman1 PS - ‘hospo’ might just be the worst of your dictionary of shit phrases/words.

Anybody else fuming when we kicked it out to finish the game rather than have another go at them? Terrible attitude for a professional sportsman.

    Amps Yes. Gutless. Most of the excuses I saw were that the ref was so inconsistent, that he could easily penalise England, and let New Zealand win the game. Don’t buy that at all…

    All this said, England were by far the poorer team for 68 minutes. An excellent finish, and a draw shouldn’t detract from their failings of the first 3/4s of the match.

      Amps Pathetic end to what was a great comeback. If I was an England fan i’d be FEWMIN’!

      vinnyt77 and let New Zealand win the game

      Would rather fail trying than not try. We had all the momentum, it was more than worth a shot.

        Thoroughly enjoyed Twickers on Saturday!

        Jones gone. Not sure about that to be honest.

          Amps I am. The results in the last few years haven’t been good enough

          Can’t have too many complaints Jones, time definitely up.

          Was hoping he’d stay till the World Cup!

          His numbers in general are boss, and the world cup is 9 months away, not sure about the timing.

            Amps England weren’t going anywhere under Jones. We’re currently a ¼ final team at best, which isn’t good enough, and I don’t think the team would have markedly improved under Jones in the next 9 months.

            New coach has the chance to improve things, change some of the mentality and philosophy. If it works out, great. If it doesn’t - so be it, he didn’t have enough time to completely overhaul things.

              Maybe, maybe not, but I wonder if a consistent selection and a good showing in the 6 Nations might not have been a spring board to something.

              Anyway, here’s hoping Ford and the Vunipola brothers never get a game for England ever again.

                Amps, what does your Twitter feed say about it?

                What’s the consensus?!
