[@JamesWRDunn]

Love Genge’a prematch speeches the bloke is so passionate.

[@lukesalter5925]

Great episode, and interesting to see the work that the analyst do behind the scenes. Feel we will get a better idea of where England truly are at this Saturday.

[@crystallineentity]

Good episode, and that was cute with Sladeys girl walking towards him at the end.

[@luketheduke4741]

Quality episode, the brains trust are clearly worth their weight in gold! Good luck Saturday boys, show the all blacks what you’re made of!

[@luke.hutchinson]

Billy and Genge straight into the food and beers afterwards :D

[@mattb2633]

Great win, lads

[@Canvashed]

Don't let Cockerill anywhere near the pitch on Saturday when the HAKA starts!!!! Might get a flashback to 1997. 😆

[@rupeking8799]

Lol

[@pierreroberts6842]

Love working with him.

[@chrisgill_UK]

Great video!

[@danielwaller2629]

We’re all thinking the same thing, why the ruck has Guy Porter got a samurai sword? 😂

[@pierreroberts6842]

Clinical. Professional. Performance.

[@pierreroberts6842]

Track. Thanks. You. Guys. 😮

[@JohnCooper-zp5pv]

What's the story behind the samurai sword Guy Porter is holding in the dressing room post the Japan game?

[@darthmong7196]

It's a ceremonial katana that's presented by Japan to their opposition.

Very interesting

Very interesting. Thanks.

That’s all they wanted 😊

[@pierreroberts6842]

Impressive 😢

[@tedphillips4197]

Oi this episode kinda good

[@orangutanklaus7035]

Really interesting episode but for my taste too much data driven. Last thing I would want to do during half time would be being confrontational by numbers and analysis on a laptop 😄

Good thing you are not playing in the squad then 😅

How are you. Doing. 😮

[@hayden9944]

Man United’s management should watch this 😅

[@thecuttingsark5094]

Man Utd were one of the first teams in England to use ‘money ball’ data analysis.

[@pierreroberts6842]

Coaches. Couple.

[@pierreroberts6842]

England. Man. React.

[@JulieDorsetBelle]

🤣Comical the people on here ranting about analysts! They are all a support mechanism not brainwashing FFS. I'm still seeing plenty of innovation and instinctive skills in all matches...

[@ianbetts4266]

That went well then, back to the drawing board after South Africa smashing England.

[@jep1912]

The backline should be.... V-P, Smith, Faz, Porter, Arundell, Radwan, Steward........ end. Can you imagine the fear that would create in every other team on the planet.

[@omh9309]

Too inexperienced to go against a world class team

[@joeboonmusic4004]

@@omh9309 Agreed... I'd personally have JVP, Smith, Farrell, Tuilagi, May/Ollie H-C, Arundell and Steward...

[@mikerobson762]

Cant understand why Nowell keeps getting picked on the wing ahead of guys who are faster or bigger and faster than he is....

[@tonkerdog1]

All those computers and yet in attack they look clueless and over coached.

[@2504anon]

it is worrying seeing the level to which analysts are involved, this is Eddie's big brother surveillance rugby in action- it won't work. Strip creativity and intuition out of the game and you'll go nowhere and have a confused and disjointed group of players. The french play off instinct and are the best in the world. No amount of data analysis can match this.

[@TW-ks3pn]

If you think the French aren't doing similar levels of analysis you're deluded

[@Canvashed]

@@TW-ks3pn yes but ours sound Welsh!! Their saboteurs 🤣

[@michaelhendriks6238]

I agree with you Henry. I believe it will lead us to formulaic and sterile rugby. Imagine you took this approach with parenting. Your kids wouldn’t learn any independence or decision making. No wonder there is a lack of leadership. You don’t learn and earn confidence and assertiveness by being told what to do all the time.

[@NTL578]

I agree, it’s all so clinical and corporate. The best teams to watch so far have been the ones just playing with patriotism Argentina, Italy, Scotland, France. I’ve no doubt that these teams use tech stats etc. But it seems like overload, ‘sticky words’.😮

[@owenbrash1750]

No wonder players seem to lack instinct, more analysts in this set up than proper skills coaches and people encouraging players to express themselves in their play

[@JulieDorsetBelle]

They were just highlighting one aspect of the support team FFS - if you were a regular viewer of these you'd know that. Data analysis is through all sport now...and it works!

[@garykivell]

02 no one cares about these nobodies! Let’s hear from the players !

[@garykivell]

What a load of bull! Get rid of these so called analysts 🤬🤬🤬

[@jackbarnett9355]

What are you on about bloke

Is it because their Welsh 😆
