Fiji vs England - 11/7/26

[Scotty]

I hope we can get another try in this YC period and then this team can use it as a training run building the attacking shape that Blackett is trying to do and coming away from the kicks. Not that the kicking strategy is bad when done properly but we need to develop out attack and attacking shape.

JvP for Leicester vs England is night and day

Same for Ben Spencer

 

[OllyM97]

England winning, but not sure how big an improvement it is. Fiji mistakes giving England so much field position.

I was that bothered about this game that I’m sat in the garden having a beer. Seems like Fiji have been garbage so far and we’re beating them how I would expect us to beat them.

 

[Scotty]

They need to change the advantage law we made so much ground and came back

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

what we've all been waiting for

 

[Quel Carreleur]

Same for Ben Spencer

If we're going to list everyone it applies to, well be here all day

 

[Scotty]

Noooo not at 13, if he must play for England make him a 12.

 

[Saintjay]

SB dreams just come true.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Maul tries should only be worth half a real try

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Also scrums are ****,
Nice sunny summer day, perfect pitch, playing against one of the most attack minded side in the game and this is what we've got to watch

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Vile

[BrokenWing]

Henry Slade’s thinking “I could’ve done that”

 

[Scotty]

BJVR ENGLISH GOAT! let the anger and *****ing begin mwhahaha

 

[Reiser99]

We're Fiji this bad last week? I didn't watch them vs Wales.

they were poor but in a different way. More reckless as they had more of the ball. You’ve not let them.

“Different England this weekend”

Nooo… just different opposition.

Amazing what playing a team rank lower can do

I think to work as a rugby commentator you have to have been recently kicked in the head by a horse

 

[Grizwald]

Disappointed with Fiji. Just haven't got into the game at all.

 

[ChicagoKid]

Fiji are horrible today. Can’t even get basic handling correct.

 

[Gavin]

The comeback is on.

 

[Welsh Exile]

Comeback is on.

 

[Welsh Exile]

Personally I think Borthwick is a great manager. Possibly the best there’s ever been. I say give him a lifetime contract off the back of this.

 

[Scotty]

No just different opposition

“Different England this weekend”

Nooo… just different opposition.

It works both ways, we arnt on SA level and Fiji/ Wales arnt on ours yet. Maybe they will be

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Think that'll be a red, a clear kick into the chest

 

[BrokenWing]

Why does it make a difference if he was holding on or not?

Does that justify kicking someone?

 

[Quel Carreleur]

Genge is shithousing, but the kick is well after he's free

 

[Welsh Exile]

Yeah, Genge was holding his leg but then you see him clearly let go and then the Fijian kicks him.

 

[Quel Carreleur]

Why does it make a difference if he was holding on or not?

Does that justify kicking someone?

It matters if he's still being held, and could be nterpretted as an action whilst trying to free himself.
It isn't remotely
