Keep it ticking...

Big scrum!!!!

Eng 27 - 16 Aus, Pen Faz 51 mins.

Good penalty to give away by Slade. That was tactical to kill quick ball.

Slade not rolling..
Aus going for tries now.

Big scrum. Come on Sinck.

Yup. Hate to say it. He's currently the player that the media pretend Ford is. Fantastic highlights but just has too many flakey moments.

Great concentration Eng..Faz pulled out of shoulder hit there !

Debatable knock on..

On another note, if a player is tackled if his knees are on the ground, why do refs continue to allow players to hold them up or strip the ball?

Sinkler, you raucous little beasty

Brilliant Sinck. Billy got away with that phew.

Jesus Christ. Who just teleported in 2010 era Youngs?

Good play Youngs..let it be said..

Can't remember when I last saw Youngs play this well.

That review your post shit is doing my head in.

Poor finish attempt, Youngs.

I wouldn't go that far. Couple of nice breaks though.

Eng 30 - 16 Aus, pen Faz 66 mins.

Great question by Hooper - "Someone came in the side? Who was it?"

Literally pick an Australian forward mate. Any and all. That maul was going places before it was killed.

Good decision to go for the 3 though -I'd lay money we'd've screwed it up if we went for the maul again.

Great. TV in hotel has frozen. Ffs

Really? I was more thinking that his passing has actually been quite good.

Or have I missed some of the usual howlers? I'm not sure I've been paying as much attention as I should.

Bear in mind I haven't considered any of his performances particularly good for several years.

All change..

Solid shift from Mako.

Daly has been utterly dire. Ignoring the failure to tackle, he's been tentative sweeping, and that whole attack came from him refusing to compete for an eminently competable high ball.

By no means terrible but there have been instances of the passing lottery as usual.
