Lets wait and see
So we are losing games on purpose and playing like this just because we don't want to show our hand too early? Hahahahaha come on now
I'm not saying thats definitely whats happening so read my original post again, and anyway we had a pretty dreadful year before the last world cup and we got to the final so I wouldn't completely write us off

Where do Eng go from here?

Attack - rubbish for the most part
Defence - rubbish for the most part
Scrum - not great
Lineout - had its issues in parts

Have we unearthed any new talent or bedded in any new partnerships these AIs - also no. Ribbans one cameo off the bench was class.

Any thoughts on the Amazon coverage of the AIs?

It's improving.

New broadcasters take time to bed in. They are getting better. Them being way cheaper than other subscription services (plus having other prime membership advantages) means I hope they start getting more rugby coverage going forwards
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

I'll stick my neck out and say that SA training this week was probably harder than that!

Johnny Hill should be dropped he is a liability.

Our whole team was boys against men

Only positive in the game was that touch wood we will get all players back uninjured :smt023
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity
