England rugby fans react to narrow loss against the All Blacks (ft Anthony Watson)

[@kainoizking]

“New Zealand were not deserved winners”. All Blacks played all the rugby and scored more tries meanwhile England created nothing and the only try they scored was off an intercept. I can’t even imagine thinking that your team deserved to win when they only kicked penalties lmao

[@vanessalaing1591]

Cry babies!!

[@samoday2992]

Played all the rugby ? What planet are you on?

[@dmazingi]

Penalties are a type of point in rugby. And they are bloody effective when a team is ill disciplined. ABs eye unconvincing and even though I'm relieved they won I think we were poor ​@@samoday2992

[@Cpchurch87]

​@samoday2992 NZ had more territory, more clean breaks, made more passes (twice the amount) more carries, beat more defenders, more offloads, won more rucks, won more turnovers, scored 3 tries to 1. They were very much playing all the rugby

[@samoday2992]

@@Cpchurch87 the vast vast vast majority of the game was played in the midfield . You continuously committed foul play to upset the rhythm of Englands attack . You got away with murder and kicked the ball more than England . Those statistics are bs by the way and we both know that as England had 54% of the territory .

[@balebcutters]

@@samoday2992lol Englands ONLY try came from a bad mistake you goof

[@MrAhuapai]

The game showed the fundamental difference in the NZ approach and that taken by England. NZ look to score tries as the principal way to win games. They will take points on offer but ball in hand catch and pass has always been the All Blacks DNA. England similar to SA in many ways look to put pressure on through set piece and defensive pressure . They score a lot of points through line out mauls and scrum penalties. Neither style is intrinsically better , in the end if the team wins the RWC by a single kick no one cares. NZ has been spoilt historical by having attacking players with the qualities of Lomu, Cullen, Nonu etc so there is expectation from AB fans to not only win but win with glorious length of the field passing movements. The great teams like the McCaw era obviously can play both styles according to what is required NZ let England into that game by gifting soft penalties to them. If they can sort out their discipline they will be hard to beat moving towards the next RWC. The challenge for England is to be able to create more try scoring opportunities against the NZs and the SAs rather than the second tier teams they usually romp over.

Penalty kick 3 points, try with conversation 7 points. The ABs held their line and score two tries in the first half. Easy peasy. Englands kicking strategy is killing their front pack. If they don’t find more ways to get the ball over the line then they will never be good enough to take on the best.

England the better team. 3 triest to 1 ABs but greatgame england and you could if won it.

[@karlosdeevs]

[@edwardharris2388]

I'd like to think I'm slightly less biased than the average joe. England in this game did not have the same attacking structure that they've showcased in the past (notably against ireland and france) perhaps that's due to the team not being together for too long before the game, maybe it's because we were purposefully playing a different gameplan which used more kicking and territory management. The positives for england: they put New Zealand under huge amounts of pressure when they had the ball which led to us staying in the game through penalties. Our kicking game i'd say was a success, multiple times in that game we found ourselves gaining territory through it. Negatives: NZ managed to find some pretty big gaps in our defence that led to their tries. Our bench was just not up to scratch at all. When Baxter and Cole came on our scrum just melted. Dombrandt was pretty quiet I thought, only ben curry had a positive impact off the bench IMO. Randall and Ford had absolute nightmares this game, randall shat the bed trying to get the ball out the scrum and then had another poor pass to ford which made an already difficult DG nearly impossible. Ford put in a pretty weak tackle attempt on Telea which led to NZ going ahead with 5 mins to go, then missed a penalty and a DG to put us back ahead.

[@Poliguy]

England should have been up by 15? England were lucky to be that close, we were the only team with actual attacking intent. England nearly won because of us not because of them.

[@samoday2992]

You done absolutely nothing other than the three tries . You were very poor and got away with it. You will 100% get beat by Ireland and France

Brilliant game ,very entertaining, both teams had intent …..game could have gone either way Marcus Smith and Sittiti best players on the park Angus Gardiner the fittest person on the park….top effort running and talking all game Curious why England didn’t just keep plugging away to get within 15 yards rather than pushing for a droppy 30 out ?? Why take off your best Player?? Why replace the front row when they had parity with the ABs in the first half??

[@xyllorb]

Just a thought but can the World Rugby rules bosses change the value of a penalty kick to 1 or 2 points ? this could potentially change the mind set of how the game us played . Tries wins games plus makes for a more exciting game to watch when trues are scored ... potentially

[@dunloplego]

The All Blacks have a delightfully balanced squad, a competitive scrum, dynamic loose forwards, especially Satiti and Savea. The halves are a concern, but with Scott Robertson at the helm, look to see Roigard bring a new dimension to the All Blacks attack. For the first time in a long time, it’s the backline that is of the most concern, but it is a new era, with a coach looking to bring his own style of attack. We have the weapons in Jordan, Talea, Sevu Reece. Midfield is not firing but we will be patient with high expectations naturally. This team is humble which is fantastic at this stage and the combinations will develop over the next few years in the lead up to the World Cup and they hopefully will peak nicely. Looking forward. England, boring as ever, nothing to get excited about apart from Marcus Smith, but a wasted talent in the English squad. How can he soar with the eagles when he is surrounded by Turkeys sort of situation.

What happened to the england sides that got on top early and went for the jugular, we cannot expect to win games by just relying on 3 pts and drip goals, we need to ATTACK, and stop picking players rhat have virtually no game time, when we have talented guys in camp, playing every week and playing good rugby
