    Going to be tough....need to keep discipline and the penalty count down as a first requirement of a game plan.

    It's a shame that this isn't the final.

    Not a big lover of Rugby but found myself setting alarms for the England games this World Cup. I’ve got the bug.

    England at +7 at 11/10 is a cracking price surely? Like I said I don’t follow rugby but am away of New Zealand’s dominance.

    come on the lions!!!!

    I'm the same. Still don't understand half of the rules but made sure I was up and showered in time this morning.

    Agreed, the two best sides meeting a week earlier than they should.

    On the plus side if we roll the Kiwi's today the final should hold no fears.

    Brilliant defending. It will have been a while since anyone has shut the Kiwis out in a first half. Probably should have had more points for all the possession and New Zealand will feel they are still in the game more than they should.

    Wow, fantastic first half from England. That high press defence has worked really well so far and put NZ under all sorts of pressure and they haven't had a sniff. Can England maintain it though? You have to think NZ won't be as bad in the second half and will certainly have some scoring opportunities.

    Against opponents of such quality that first half must be one of the finest an England team has ever produced.
    Hardly a mistake....lineout and scrum both working well....but the quality of ball handling outside has put New Zealand under so much pressure they are not committing men to counter ruck.

    I think that's is a concern that perhaps we should have had more points on the board. NZ only need one score to get some real momentum going and then they could be tough to stop...

    Saw most of the first half and just now the last ten minutes. Hats off to Tonga for maintaining their intensity, been a brutal game. We've looked disjointed at times.

    I'm only a casual watcher of Rugby Union so don't understand many of the rules. I don't really know why our second try was not given.
