'England were unlucky that Lawrence got injured!' Yes, in the general sense but Borthwick chose to go 6:2 so is it bad luck or bad judgement if a back is injured early on?

You're so unfair.
I've given him plenty of praise for his second half efforts.

Not really. Who would you have had on the bench in a 5:3 that would've made losing Lawrence significantly less disruptive?

You praised him for running away from the posts to ensure Finbar had a difficult kick?

Yeah, that was weird. There were a couple of occasions where that happened - MSmith not only didn't go under the posts, but actively ran 5m wider, and then Earl did the same for the last try. Not that it's likely to actually matter, but points difference could be important and it seems weird to not try to optimise a conversion where there's no risk.
