Who did Slade come on for?

Well that's Ford's last ever England appearance then.

To be fair, there'd be howls if farrell had thrown that miss pass...

Kruis has deserved something for a busy championship.

Opportunist try by Kruis...charge down.
Con Ford.
43 - 14 after 65 mins.

Ford opens play up and Robson follows Coka well..try in corner

50 - 14 after 69 min.

Jesus over hype Cokanisiga much?

Well, on here maybe. My point was that looked like such a bored, desperate attempt to make something happen. But it will just be more proof that he's not as good as Farrell, who literally refused to even try a pass off his left hand earlier.

Hughes silly needless tackle.Ita get another chance.

Big gaps in the stand. Is Italy at home not normally a sell-out?

There was a ton of people leaving shortly after half time from what I saw. Don't blame them. Really wish I'd done something else with my day.

Sniffer Shields bags a brace..Kruis charge again.
Con Ford
57 - 14 after 79 min.

Robson's passing was an improvement, but it was under such little pressure it's hard to get too excited.

FT: Eng 57 - 14 Ita
Not sure about Coka motm..- Kruis maybe.
Somewhat stilted showing.

Still far less laboured than anything from the incumbent. Plus he looked interested, was always on the ball for mauls etc

Agreed.

Two of the easiest tries ever for Shields. I genuinely think I could have taken both of those, but that’ll be enough to displace Wilson or worse, Curry.

Didn't learn much- like to see more of Joe though, and Manu and Billy survived. Italy were surprisingly poor, maybe give ourselves a bit of credit.

Me reading some of posts in this thread.

I thought Kruis too but Cokanasinga was solid considering how much work he seemed to be trying to get through.

Boring day of rugby overall.

daft hair mate

All is ordered in the universe once again - England are fekkkking brilliant, Joe Cocker is the new Jonah (and he only needs one hand), Youngs/Farrell just get better and better, Morris confirms they would have humped the All Blacks today. Breath easily - the RWC's in the bag.

Dallaglio scoffing at the idea of Cokanisiga starting ahead of Nowell. WHAT THE FUCK IS IT THAT IM MISSING?

Hair. You are missing hair.

To put it into context, I am looking forward to Arsenal v Man Utd tomorrow.

I’ve got more than Nowell currently. Pace too, which is really saying something.
