England vs Australia - 01/11/25

[Jimbo]

I wouldn’t have made much of England defence it didn’t look too solid in patches, to be fair though the own try conceded was an intercept, considering how Aus have played and scored lots of try’s recently I think I’ve maybe been unfair on how good it actually was.

Love to see Pollock calming the situation down there...

 

[TommiG88]

The ref has a bet on Aus scoring another try

Anytime there's a dust-up the first person to get involved is Pollock and never for the better

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Disgraceful from Pollock, cut him immediately

Not watching the game?

 

[Jimbo]

Was that a pity YC, need to check the stats but if Englands pen count is lower it doesn’t seem quite right.

 

[Wasps92]

Brilliant defence.

 

[AlRums]

That was a very poor Australia beaten by a mediocre England.

Still congrats England, you did us a favour.

Australia looked weaker in 2nd half.
Maybe being the opposite side of the world last week didn't help fatigue.

 

[TommiG88]

Does this victory mean we’ll probably be in the top seeds for the World Cup?

 

[Geordie]

First game of the Autumn against a battle hardened Australia...the coaches will be satisfied. And things they can certainly work on.

Job done.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I think that went about as expected, though I did think Australia would be a try or so closer

Players we thought would go well, did
Players we didn't, didn't

Very interested to see what we do in the Fiji game - wouldn't be surprised to see the same again but with bench and starters swapped

Pollock was lucky he scored a try because if his main involvement was getting a yellow that wouldn’t have been good with his awful hair.

We could lose to Fiji yet! Habe to wait until at least that match is done

Earl seems a bit of a strange mom, I’d have probably go Roebuck he was just class can’t remember mistakes did well in high pressure situations and just gets the basic right all the time.

Imagine being this bitter. Bet you vote SNP don’t you?

For what it’s worth if you gave the English a vote I’m sure you irrelevant kernts would be independent.

I’m sure the commentator said he scored two ties when he was deciding it. He nearly did but not quite.

 

[Rugbyfan564]

Steward’s hand seems ok he was just showing his repaired finger to Pollock.

I thought Steward was really good second half after a poor first 40.
