[2014 EOYT] England vs New Zealand

[LittleGuy]

That's a penalty try, all day long.

No, too many defenders nearby, certainly should have been a yellow though.

 

[admartian]

Brilliant at the breakdown.

 

[Darwin]

McAwe

 

[Mikel92]

Blatant offside that close to the line? Guess I would have taken the yellow though!

 

[Patchey]

Sweet Jesus. Stop giving penalties away. It's pretty obvious Owen's has lowered his tolerance at the break down, so adapt!

NZ will see this out, but this was a very winnable game all things considered.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I agree it should be a yellow.

I have to say the officiating has been awful this game. Inconsistent in the extreme; I doubt either side have a ****ing clue what they're supposed to do.

EDIT: Should add: if it's a penalty it's a yellow. 50/50 call.

TMO showed it wasn't even a penalty though - that's why Nige couldn't yellow Tom Wood: he wasn't offside.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

would love an interception now...only way in hell we're going to get out of this position.

 

[Mikel92]

Try time!!

 

[Peat]

Was coming, fair play.

 

[Darwin]

YES! Fantastic patient build-up.

 

[admartian]

nice try.


i think hartley ****** the Abs more than anything. Not surprised, dude is a ******** on the field.

 

[Bean]

Try's should just flow now IMO.

 

[Mikel92]

Oh God...

What now

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Good wet weather try. Not a lot you can do to stop something like that - 22 phases of bashing tired bodies.

 

[RyotoTheDragon]

omg!! haha this is turning to ****

 

[Patchey]

That try shows the gulf between us and NZ. When we had consistent phases of possession in the NZ half we showed no where near as much composure and very impatient.

Or...is it a try? Yes, yes it is...

 

[Bean]

Owens trying his best to stop NZ from winning haha.

 

[Mikel92]

Owens being influenced by the crowd I think...

 

[admartian]

wth STOP LISTENING TO THE ****ING CROWD NIGEL! he heard the boos with the Coles incident, and WANTED to issue a yellow. Heard the crowd here, and called for a Bull**** tmo review.

Owens being influenced by the crowd I think...

lol ya think? AT LEAST twice today...

 

[Darwin]

**** of Nige. Stop listening to the crowd and start watching the match.
