    Nope. But then I thought we’d beat them in the last tournament final, so who knows?!

    Put it this way … I’d take us to win the third/ fourth playoff ( if there was one )

    Rain might even things up but it’s a long shot for an England win

    England looking good so far, just a bit of ill discipline to correct. Mitchell has finally come to the party.

    Better first half than I could have hoped still think SA will turn it round second half though we can’t keep the intensity of the first half for another 40 mins can we?

    Brilliant first half. Only thing missing was a try or two. We are in their heads, especially with the early substitution. South Africa have all the expectation and pressure and are losing their heads. Farrell should keep his nerve like his team mates have. Leave it to the opposition to get worked up.

    We're stronger in the maul/ ruck and are kicking too much.

    Which one, Phil or Grant or Peggy ? lol.
    Im not a fan of Union but in fairness, you can't knock England for that effort and determination in the 1st half.

    Much better first half than I’d have hoped for, we’ve got ‘em rocked. We just seem to be better than them in all areas, surprisingly. Let’s see if it lasts… hopefully….

    I just hope we aren't having a massive "hit him frank" moment.

    If we've any try scorers in the squad, now might be the time to show yourself.
