    Bet the Kiwis have not been kept scoreless in the first half very often.

    Perfect way to finish the half

    Concerned about Farrell leg though.

    If we can keep the level of intensity up we have this, nonsense decision for Underhills try the defender had made his mind up to smash our dummy runner it's why you make dummy runs 

    What worries me is New Zealand for all the possession we have had havent had to work as hard as us in keeping the pressure on and they are well capable of playing possum and hurting us early which would be hugely demoralising. 

    I hope Farrell is ok

    Fantastic first half defensively. We just need to keep that work ethic up second half.

    TMO decision was completely right.

    Phenomenal first half performance from England. You can bet there will be a sting in the tail though.

    Farrell won’t last long. 
    Limping before kick off.

    Huge decision that. I’m not savvy enough to know if it’s correct or not but feels very unlucky.

    Not an expert on rugby rules but that didn't look like the ball was going forward, the player passed the ball backward. That seems harsh to me that the try was ruled out. Very marginal decision.

    Scotsman really rooting for England here. I almost feel dirty 😉. England soooo deserve to win this.

    Pair of nonsense decisions in my opinion 

    The first one I disagree with but I get why the decision went against us as stupid as it was. The second one is farcical and not what the video replay is for but whatever. 
  • Really one sided game, the All Blacks being made to look a bit ordinary 

    but somehow you still fear a comeback from them

    Scotswoman here the same. I support England against SA but England v Wales would a tough call. Normally it would be Wales but for me they have been more annoying and didn't really deserve to win their quarter final

    This is set up so perfectly for a kick in the balls... I don’t like it. Come on England....

    England seemed up for this right from the start from going onto the pitch. They have played forward throughout and tried to run the ball.  Deservedly & should be more ahead . 13 points is a good margin but New Zealand can come back.

    Video decision again - too much video decisions - what is all this pffafing around ? 

    New Zealand try - the pfaffing around of the video decision didn't help. England dropped focus. Barely deserved and back in the game.

    What a terrible try to concede. 
  • Ffs - should be out of sight and now given away a try.

    Daly's missed penalty is looking very expensive right now
