I like George Ford playing behind a pack going forwards!

Re: England vs USA
Why has Jones picked so many Tigers players after their season they asked.
2 games in and 2 Tigers players given Man Of The Match.

Re: England vs USA
Eesh, what a dumb way to end though! Not bad not bad, forwards looked like an impressive unit. I'd be happy never to see Piers Francis in an England shirt ever again though, he's useless.
Re: England vs USA
Daly was shocking! Injury or not JJ has took over Slade's place in the squad,can play wing too so perfect for the 23 shirt.

Re: England vs USA
And for all his skills, Daley is just plumb, dumb stupid. Game won, hooter gone and instead of hoofing it off he not only risks further contact and injury to his own side, the dumb jackass allows the US to pressure fora try.CitizenSmiff wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 1:44 pm Eesh, what a dumb way to end though!

Plain stupid, given the energy sapping conditions!

Re: England vs USA
Job done. A decent performance.
All Tigers players played well.
Ford was his usual excellent self.
Genge came on and looked threatening and made a great run which helped set up a try.
Youngs came on and did what most people have been wanting and gave quick ball and looked to create things.
Cole’s scrummaging was great as always.

Re: England vs USA
Youngs was poor! Passing was off,waits till both hands are on the ball too before scanning the field and dilly dallied at the BD as well getting turned over which led to the sequence of events which led to their try.

Re: England vs USA
He got turned over as there was no support. It was either get turned over or give away a penalty. There were a few opportunities for England to kick the ball out and finish the game before USA scored too.
Re: England vs USA
Yes there was,there was a player on his left shoulder who he ignored and went the other way.

Re: England vs USA
Ok. You clearly just don’t like Youngs. Fair enough.
It’s interesting how you have only commented on his errors and not others. Ford made a couple of passes which weren’t too good.
Genge conceded a penalty.
Other players made errors too but it’s only Youngs you commented on.

Re: England vs USA
I just think he slows the game down way too much. You can get away with it at this level because the second tiers linespeed, alignment and getting back into position is a touch slower but at the highest level that split second is the difference between winning and losing.TigerBoy1880 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 2:16 pm Ok.
