[2014 Mid-Year Tests] New Zealand vs England (1st Test)

[Sam Owen]

Argh Brown!!!

WHAT THE ***** OWENS

ABs were all flying over that ruck off their feet. That far out with that much momentum and that's another yellow not given.

Justin Marshall isn't so bad when he's calm - the problem is any sort of excitement, such as a rugby game, and he loses his chips

That's when he's at his best!

Also, the ABs aren't impressing me so far. I even thought the haka lacked a bit of pizzazz.

[Peat]

Weird mix up that.

 

[Sam Owen]

Good D from England. Just gotta get outta here and execute everything

 

[Sam Owen]

Brilliant kicking from the English maybe that's where it is..

 

[The Jones Boy]

This looks like the first hit out for both teams, very scrappy.

 

[austingtir]

England are very very uncomfortable under any high ball. Other than that they look pretty damn good to me.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Burns started well, forgetting one overshot kick. Brown hasn't started so great..

 

[j'nuh]

All things said and other than one mistake, Burns has been fantastic so far, in controlling the game and defence.

 

[Sam Owen]

Yes!

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Burns has been good, youngs has been ****

 

[donmcdazzle]

Tackled in the air there wasn't it?

 

[The Jones Boy]

Early days folks... a lot of rugby to come yet...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Should've been a penalty against Haskell there, but frankly: If any AB fans have the minerals to complain about that after all they've been given so far..........!

 

[Sam Owen]

Tackled in the air there wasn't it?

Almost! But no...

 

[Big Ewis]

GOOD start so far from England. But the AB are very present as well.

Haha valid point

"Danny Cipriani listens to Nickelback" :lol:

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Scrum appears to be steady enough
