England vs Fiji 26th August 23

[Saintjay]

Englands defence in a nut shell.

Let off for us. Lazy by Cole.

 

[Wasps92]

We're so ****.

 

[Jimbo]

I'd give it just because it looked great!

 

[TommiG88]

Borthwick for king!

 

[Reiser99]

We get lucky.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Saved by the TMO,
Deserved to be a try tbh

 

[Lé Ddanno]

I'd have given that on the principle that it was the best thing in Twickenham for 6 months.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Yeah great try in my mind. Cole at fault there.

 

[TommiG88]

Cole is just no longer international standard. Mind boggles how he's in or around the squad

 

[BrokenWing]

Would have been allowed last week

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Mitchell actually got the ball away as soon as it got to the back of the scrum!
A rarity in this day and age

 

[Jimbo]

I don't get why FS just passively half commit to the tackle there if your outnumber in a 2 on one then nail the ball carrier hope you get to him quickly enough to disrupt the pass, it's not like he has the pace to drop off the carrier and make the tackle.

 

[Wasps92]

Last 10 minutes we look tier 2 standard.

Steve Borthwick wants peddled.

 

[Protalus rampart]

After a small bright patch the rain has returned England to what I expect of England nowadays

 

[AlRums]

imagine what could be if the Fijian scrum half deliver quick ball

 

[Saintjay]

Max Malins Englands best speed bump by far.

 

[TommiG88]

Last 10 minutes we look tier 2 standard.

Steve Borthwick wants peddled.

I'd go with 20mins

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Cole is just no longer international standard. Mind boggles how he's in or around the squad

reality is because Englands th's depth sucks

Schonert should be in the squad but he is also very much a injury question mark.

But outside him who else is there?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Max Malins Englands best speed bump by far.

I dunno, speed bumps usually make you slow down: Semi didn't even break stride!

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Malins doesn't even look like he's seen the inside of a gym. Needs to actually add some muscle.
