England vs Australia - 09/11/24

What has to happen for Borthwick to get the hook? Realistically I don't see it happening regardless. Jones going suggests all is not well behind the scenes it's only really coming out what a dick Jones could be while he had the job.

complete lack of dawg

Only one, little French dawg in the NH right now.

No true northerner in the side (Ford doesn't count because he went through the Leicester academy)
Defence was fine until Curry went off

The RFU having more money than they've got I suppose.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

CCS prob showed why he is more a impact player today atm def think he's Englands future at 8

Is it? England have conceded 8 tries in 2 games now.

Would be interesting to know if there are performance based get outs in his contract, no way they can afford to pay him off after paying off EJ and also paying off Leicester

Were 4:6 this year so far, likely to end 5:7 (though don't count your chickens, could be 4:8 if we don't switch on)

Soo frustrated at our defence, we just get picked so easy outside.

Fair play to bring it back and get ahead but it wasn't amazing play for that last try. Just hands outside vs poor defence. Soo frustrating.

We played some good rugby, very good start, had a bad period but got back into it and into a position to win it but just could not close it out.

I don't know what we do here, we arnt a million miles away but when we are getting caught in defence yet our attack needs work is a real problem.

Tbh I just don't think he's fit enough to play 80 of an international, and then he starts making silly decisions.

Yeah cause I was absolutely talking about last week and not the first 20 mins of today, and also clearly joking

Got a bit of cash from selling the naming rights to Twickenham.

Yeh 100% agree

 

[Saintjay]

But in that game it started to go wrong after the first 20 minutes. Not in the last 20 minutes.

True but in the lead In the 79th minute. Scrum near the half way. We should not be losing that.

So another 2nd half lead turning into a loss.

Imagine if joe was england coach… imagine what could be on attack

The RFU are committed now to English only coaches.

 

[Grizwald]

Borthwick well out of his depth at International level.

Ciao

Is there any topic for Italy Argentina?

 

[Grizwald]

Could be messy against the Boks next week who seem to saving their full bore side for the fixture. If memory serves it was a heavy loss against the Boks that brought the boos and Eddie's downfall?

Put one up there now

 

[McTallshort]

Couldn't give a toss because Coventry beat Tigers

 

[AlRums]

The blitz defence really doesn't seem to be working for England.
