[RWC2023] England vs Chile (23/09/2023)

[AlRums]

Strange isn't it, we've had good Comms hearing what the referee was saying, here nothing

 

[IT157]

I'd be worried if there wasn't a class gap to a team where most players play in the South American division.

And let's be honest, the gap is currently not that big…

Class apart from everyone on the pitch including other English players....

 

[ncurd]

He looks like our best player. He is one of our best players. That is the point I'm trying to make. He's gets unfairly **** on by a lot of England fans.

He's the third best fly half in the squad. And he doesn't get unfairly **** on he gets stupidly overly praised.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

This commentary is insane, have they been told to be nice to England players or they'll lose their media passes or something?
The amount they're bigging up Billy despite doing absolutely bugger all is mad

They were going crazy about Daly earlier despite his pass to the floor leading to a 50+m turnover before too

Bit like here

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Thought Lawrence was looking good until then.

By who? On here? lol. I am one of the only people who thinks he's actually a good player it seems!

On BBC website comments. Don't think so!

He has very few fans amongst the English.

Tbf he hasn't knocked it on, belly flopped statically or been red carded so it's probably an improvement from his recent outings.

Again! Dan runs a line outside in towards the posts and care just stays there watching him before then passing to a stationary player behind

 

[TommiG88]

So I changed Daly for arundell in my fantasy

 

[IT157]

Arundell with the two easiest tries ever in a game?

Care has been hideous

In recent years your possibly right. But as long time Farrell is **** why the **** don't we play Ford advocate. I assure you it's taken a long long time to realise he's actually just average.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lame move, try should only be worth 3pts

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Iceman? More like sliceman amirite?

 

[IT157]

Care has been hideous

Second game in a row we are begging for Youngs to come on. Who would have thought it!

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Just a thought. Why are we seemingly the only team who have to always "rebuild" each cycle as if from nothing. I swear most other top teams have pretty good continuity when going between coaches even if there's a bit of a drop in their top level

 

[BrokenWing]

I wonder, with the number of players in this squad that are off to French teams afterwards, if there's so sort of agreement being put in place for international release.

 

[TommiG88]

We are starting to a touch more fluid

Comment from BBC website. I'm sorry but what a silly comment considering the team is drastically different and Farrell is playing well conversions aside.

"England maybe just aren't very good and worse for having Farrell back in the side?
Eddie"

edit. maybe it is Eddie Jones trolling....
