why is NZ foul play as soon as they are under pressure never penalised
|
|
By:
Both teams and the ref making some silly errors here.
|
|
By:
NZ looking flashy but still England well in it. Could be an ok game.
|
|
By:
england playing against the welsh ref as usual,bit like the irish/french ref,any 50/50 goes against england,blatant.
|
|
By:
excellent first quarter from england & kiwi's feeling the heat. england probably should be a few more points ahead & burns worth his starting place so far

"Danny Cipriani listens to Nickelback"
No wonder he is never picked. |
|
By:

Gloucester fans will be livid watching this from Burns...
|
|
By:
can we confirm the nickleback rumour? if not it is an ugly slur on anyone's character. i would take legal action
|
|
By:
unless someones legs fall off i think i've done my dough on over 5.5

|
By:
Would be nice to see at least one try...
|
|
By:
the ref will probably go over for the 1st try for the all blacks
|
|
By:
You get the feeling NZ aren't enjoying this. Seem devoid of ideas.
|
|
By:
nz looking disjointed, not knowing what to do. Definately rusty but will they lose? THat is the 10% question.
|
|
By:
NZ over the years have gone in at HT behind plenty of times, only to explode into action in the second half. Not many signs of life here though.
|
|
By:
Even the NZ commentators on the radio are getting excited for England: "England are transformed, they are Fiji, this is exciting" So much for dull boring Eng rugby.
|
|
By:
damn eng winning at HT would have been really handy
|
|
By:
short side ffs
|
|
By:
Some of the less partisan types who were interviewed in NZ sounded a little bit worried. Joe Schmidt as well was talking recently about the way England are heading. Winning teams tend to be those that have been together for a long time and Lancaster's team have an average age of about 24 and are already looking decent.
Long way to go though obviously. Still, a good performance here will prove a few points. |
|
By:
9-9 HT
No cutting edge at the end. Plenty of good battling play before that though. |
|
By:
Burns been excellent,Wilson been awful.
|
|
By:
Decent 40 for sure for Eng. Seem to be building a real squad these days.
|
|
By:
At least the draw backer at 42 per game may be able to get away without a lot of damage. Nice first half that. Even game and maybe a sneaky lay of NZ is in order.
|
|
By:
Wilson slower than a cargo ship in body and mind.
|
|
By:
Yes Burns has played his first decent rugby in over a year today.
|
|
By:
Have NZ put in a single backline move? Never seen so little creativity from them.
|
|
By:
england player looked to be taken out again 4 yards from try line
|
|
By:
Bookies around 12/1 and 16/1 for the draw. 47/1 on betfair. Definitely still better value on this site in some places.
|
|
By:
Draw price does seem huge - but it did pre match too!
|
|
By:
that's a pity england were worth a lead there.
no other team in world rugby plays the way NZ do at the breakdown because no other team would be allowed to. hands in all over the place, on the ball, pulling arms away and watch for those low swiping arms aimed at the legs of players trying to stay on their feet in the ruck z |
|
By:
48 on the draw is good value,england look strong
|
|
By:
what do NZ 1.05 backers do now?
|
|
By:
Draw not that huge considering the price of the fav.
Mind you if this was an aviva game we'd be at about 10/1 on 9-9 HT :) |
|
By:
Probably collect. Got to worry that England didn't capitalise on a couple of great opportunities.
|
|
By:
they should give gambling up
|
|
By:
Back them again at 1.15 I'd imagine.
|
|
By:
cheers for the reply guys. give up gambling is a good one :)
|
|
By:
NZ get their best chance of the match and Coles just cant help but try to cheat straight away.
|
|
By:
And NZ kick.....
