I like putting the Ref : TMO descussion through the stadium speakers

Doesn't look good for Billy, but there's a dip as Stuart's tackle starts affecting.
Yellow seems right

Or Oz have upped their intensity and we don’t have the platform we did in the first 20 mins.

I think Steward was relying on the support that he knew was wrapping round behind him and so went looking for the double hit which didn't work out. Not the best decision making.
well yes
but still the wrong decision.
Yes. Should hold his width. Care should also do a lot better with the tackle instead of trying to jump out the way.

The England defence has been poor and discipline worse.

How can we look so lacking in confidence with the game situation as it is (was)?

Have we had many chances or did we just look good for 20 mins without actually creating any real clear cut chances?

Best chance was Curry's break, then passing wide to Marchant with 2 defenders, unaware of Smith inside unopposed

That might be about it and I’m not convinced Smith wasn’t well covered.

I'm fed up with being embarrassed about our performances. We were absolutely stuffed.

Well played to the Aussies. Fully deserved. The RFU made a huge mistake keeping Eddie.
