We've been shit. No sugar coating it. This is a pretty miserable effort.

Even if it is clearly outside of any ruck? How far back can one go?

The back foot, which it wasn’t.

Ok, but it was to the left of the ruck, right? Need to see it again now

Spot on. Shoite from JVP.

Eh? Bottom line is our players made a succession of really stupid mistakes.

This - boneheadedness has been an ever present with England teams for years. Is this a feature of premiership games as well?

OK so.. nightmare opening for JVP with a terrible kick and the intercepted pass for the opening try. Maybe he was trying too hard to make up for the kick.
Jonny Hill doesn't look great.
Same old England.. chances in their 22 and we mess up. We don't convert chances. Poor.
Got away with third try due to the neck roll. May have been a poor call from the ref on whether the ball was out of the ruck.. couldn't tell.
Some better moments but we are our own worst enemies quite often. Some brain dead nonsense and terrible execution which I'd sadly par for the course.

Lol

Not sure which I’m more sick of: Jonny Hill or the Habana Sage advert.

Low bar tho, we were execrable

I wrote a really long detailed analysis of that half point of view. TL,DR f'k off Eddie your ship sailed many years ago.

Was that a record by Smith for the fewest touches in a half of international rugby?

Early second half reminder that it’s the Raynal show.

Ben Youngs ASAP. (Counts to 10 and saays half a dozen Hail Marys)

But look on the bright side. We could be Welsh.

Yeah, I've been on a Ben Youngs passing course as well

And I was told I set the bar low!

Oooh, an actual nice bit of play

If he's too injured to kick wtf is he still doing on the pitch!!

Raynal’s been truly awful but what happened to his keenness on ponging Billy’s lineout infringement? He’s ignored every other lineout for the same thing.

We are completely clueless/shapeless/aimless/incoherent in the backs.

If someone would make a ‘It’s the Raynal Show’ meme I’d be eternally grateful.

"Hallelujah, it's Raynal, men!"

No check of for offside?

Nowell really looked slow there.

Can’t believe Steward couldn’t catch Ioane for the try. He is soooo slow.

Fret ye not. Ben Youngs will be on shortly!
