England A vs Portugal XV

I mean does anyone really come out of this game that well tbh?

Portugal 10 got a great clip for his highlight reel.

Skivington. Decent interview.

just watching now and it seems like a closed door game that the rfu figured they could spin into an event.

Portugal got some youngsters some experience against tough competition, England got some guys together for a camp, and France got to evaluate a referee.

Phew, that was close. All down to Ewels inspirational leadership.

Feels like a game that age grade should be playing not seasoned pros (and in some cases: seasoned internationals)

The kids were busy elsewhere.
When organised, I believe Portugal expected have access to their professional players (I guess they've not had no negotiate player release with professional clubs before)

Maybe they weren't expecting to make the European semi finals? It is odd though.

The likes of France or Ireland must be able to muster a 2nd team for a game like this. Portugal should have been done in the summer when they could put a proper team together

Portugal have a semifinal tomorrow vs Spain that why of their line up, just don't know why this game was organised, served nothing at all

Could have served as a warm up?

Wood of loved to have seen this match up but as soon I saw Portugal's squad I did not go through with the purchase of tickets

Don't even know if it was a full house
Lost all interest just picked up the Metro turned to the back page to see the result
