Weird game. Like a hungover run at the park on Sunday.

There's a blatant hit on Curry off the ball there. How's that not a penalty.
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.

Good to see we had the ball in the opposition's 22 at the start of the half and failed score .. again.

No check of for offside?
Nowell really looked slow there.
I checked it and he's not. Just really good timing.

If we're going to say one good thing, our lineouts have been good so far. Good deceptions and movement and we're going up uncontested every time.
We're gonna lose this one now, aren't we.

International fullback steps a one man chase with the width of the pitch at his disposal shocker.
Piss poor kick to the 'corner' barely gets us into the 22 but we rumble up to the 5m and then give away another penalty. This is painful to watch.

I was, of course, referring to the offside.
We get into the 22 again and once again seek the nearest NZ forward to try and bash through. Ridiculous.

That was gorgeous from May (albeit he would've scored that two years ago). Shocking support levels though. Vunipola and Simmonds isn't working - we need Willis on pronto.

Ribbans preparing to come on. What do you want to bet it's for Simmonds?

Farrell not exactly a supportive sort of captain is he? Is he sulking?

Like Steward vs Japan last week? Thanks for walking in to it… said the kick chase to England’s fullback.

The amazon coverage is pretty rubbish. They go so far back in history with slow motion artistic shots to start showing replays and miss the offence or pivotal moment and then miss the live moment as they cut back to live.

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

8 visits to the 22.. no tries. That's pretty abject.
