This is looking like a great game already.

13-3 already

 

[LamieRobertson]

important try

 

[nwgull]

Can't understand the ref's interpretation of the advantage at the end there. England had a nailed on 3 pts and only advanced about 10m before he called advantage over.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Should have kicked the pen 16-11 better than 16-8

 

[Dave the OAP]

Playing better. Bit more accurate kicking we would be back in this!

Jerry guscott is the most anti English miserable ****er there has ever been.

The ref didn't give it did he? Played advantage and called it over just before England lost it I thought.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I thought he gave penalty advantage, Clive woodward obviously thought so too.

He did, but it's rare at this level of rugby that a ref would call advantage over for anything other than a score for a pen on the 22 in front of the posts!

Anyway, I still think we're going to win this now.

 

[Blackadder]

Game on. Don't think the TV judge could be 100% sure that the ball was over the line. Good Pen.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Get Nowel off
