England's set piece isn't ideal at the moment.

Some very odd reffing. Why call that not straight?

Wrong move to go to wing, again. We are useless.

Absolutely cretinous play at the scrum. Solid ball, let's sit there and look at it, then try some blind side move.

JVP probably getting the hook at half time, and rightly so, he's badly muffed this.

He's playing at club speed; why ? .... because the Eddiot wasted 20x caps on Youngs, that should have gone to finding & developing a replacement.

Half time might come at the right time for Faz to get his ankle right.

Maybe but he has shat the bed here.
England in attack early he kicks a moronic ball like his brain is shit
Beautiful pass for 1st nz try
Slow to pick and kick
Wrong decisions when has time.

He has been terrible. It’s going to take a lot for him to recover this appalling display. He’s been NZs best player.

Nowhere near enough of a lead at HT. Should be easy for England to mow that down once they get a roll on.

Have you seen us before? We don't score freely and consequently we don't do well when behind.

Picking poor old Simmonds at 6 looks like another Jones selection triumph.

Why do England bother picking Marcus Smith. They just seem to use him as the shite kid who turns up training every week so gets a game. There doesn’t seem to be any plan to get him in the game, rarely takes at first receiver. It’s completely baffling

Oh dear, I missed the start of the match so didn't see the intercept pass for the first try.

Well, I am researching my family history looking for Irish roots er….begorrah.

The only positive is that NZ might think they’re world beating after this.

The worst thing about this is that Youngs will now be unchallenged until the RWC. This is very, very hard to watch

He’s done nothing right yet, and plenty that’s wrong.

If they're going to waste him the way they do, I'd rather he's back at Quins.

Unfortunately, unlike Ford, he doesn't have the experience/gravitas to tell Farrell to get the fuck out of the 10 channel and let him do his job.

They cant let Jones stay if England win 1 out of 4 in the AN series surely? If they do, that tells you everything you need to know about them.

NZ have been poor since first 10 minutes, but England have been much much worse.
