Better 2nd half, still outclassed over the 80 mins though really.

Thought we did better than expected,the turning point was the Kevin Brown disalowed try,Missed the 1st 20 mins as the alarm didnt go off thought Luke Robinson looked quite good and Shenton looked strong,The problem is the kiwis are massive all over the park and are so hard to put down,Continuos tackling on the big men must take there toll,Pritchard is just a beast,Same as the Samoans the problem is that is how these people are naturaly built,Were just nationally not meant to be built big and strong.even the big guys like Burgess and Graham are dwarfed by the Kwiws,anyway a similar nation in the aussies next,there just far faster than us,But certainly some encouragement,theres always PNG,Comon Emannuel!!!!

I watched the England game on Monday, having read ESO's texts I was expecting us to have been blown away, but I actually thought we played quite well! Don't forget we were playing the World Champions in their own back yard (or should that be cake tin)

I think we were pretty much blown away first half.

Fair comment. We played well - but not for long enough.
