Really disappointing autumn for him after a good summer. I fear we need to move on.

If the tackler releases Smith there, it's a try, so penalty try surely

I think Farrell's got a good point. If Barrett releases, then a simple pop to May means a score. That's a poor decision.

Looks like we're getting the try anyway. As it turns out, if you run into a brick wall enough times, eventually you will get a result. Clearly there is no need for us to change tack at all.

Lots is stick for JVP for being caught passing the ball but he doesn't have much choice when there's no player anywhere close to resource the ruck. We're so far off the pace it's painful.
The elongated pass wind up was commented on by many on here however when he first broke through. Maybe a bit of confirmation bias, but looks like NZ targeted it really effectively
Yeah he has a wind up for his kicks as well. Tigers tend to offer a bit better protection because he has had issues with chargedowns previously.

I'm not happy about this. We should be hammering you, not getting anxious with 5 to go.

Stewards try was the best bit of rugby this team has produced since the WC, It was quite something.
