[2018 November Tests] England v South Africa (3/10/18)

[Reiser99]

For me while there were finally some good moments there, England's attack is still too predictable.

 

[Nubiwan]

Your loss really, but it is silly to mistake this England side which is less than the sum of its parts as representative of British rugby.

As an example I would wager most full strength Premiership sides would theoretically be in a similar position to SA right now, if not a few more points. England international rugby/RFU is a joke and has been for ages. Taking players and making them worse is a speciality

I watch enough Magners and Heineken league to see that Super Rugby, and NZ inter provincial rugby is better entertainment, thanks.

I mean I'm not kidding May might be our best player defensively today.....I can't be live that's a sentence I would ever write.

 

[Reiser99]

ffs Farrell, the one area where we had 100% is gone.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

The way May just jogs around international players is so satisfying

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Dat counter tho

 

[ncurd]

Not sure I can agree with taking Nowell off.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

How many times have we just blindly thrown the ball behind our own players and put ourselves under pressure? Shields in particular keeps doing it.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

The way England are playing at the moment, Ashton's support lines could be very beneficial

 

[Steeler]

score prediction vs the All Blacks?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Why is Marx still in the game?

Not happy about Nowell being brought off for Ashton.

On the plus, Care will hopefully up the tempo a bit and Mercer has looked good.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

What does Daly have against passing to May? Becoming mildly infuriating

 

[TheSaffycen]

So we made a big deal of getting Shields over why?

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Shields with that famous New Zealand offloading game

 

[ncurd]

Shields you idiot....

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Shields is a plank

 

[Bada-Bing!]

That's not going win Shields any new fans.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

******* Shields
