[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 148948"] I thought the scoreline flattered Tonga a little to be honest. Credit to them for a spirited performance, but other than the two well taken tries they barely found their way into the England 22. And someone desperately needs to teach them how to tackle. How Latu didn't get binned for smashing his shoulder into Moody's face I'll never know. Especially after all the other no-arm tackles he threw in. And f*** it, while I'm moaning - how did Tonga not once get penalised for dragging down the maul in the first half? Every single time we tried to set one up a Tongan fell over. I think it can be safely assumed we won't come close to the Aussies. The state of pessimism can be accurately summarised by the groan that went up across the country when Farrell was brought on. And quote of the night goes to my Dad, who I was watching the match with. Upon seeing our returning captain touch the ball for the first time he eloquently proclaimed: "Bloody hell, Vickery's a pudding isn't he?!?!" Make me chuckle because it's true. [/QUOTE]
