Not expecting much from England. Think Borthwick is very limited as a head coach. Did well in turning Leicester round but the English Prem is not a good standard compared to the international game and he just got Leicester doing the basics well. That’s not enough at international level.

I’m no rugby expert but how can Curry’s attempted tackle be a red but Santi Carreras‘ premeditated-Toni-Schumacher hip/elbow to the shoulder only be a yellow?

This card referral officer is a dreadful invention.

A good half for England despite playing all of it a man light a good battling performance with some excellent drop kicks from Ford to keep the scoreboard ticking over.

I've managed to secure tickets for England V Japan and England V Samoa so hopefully we are in a good position in out group by then

Well that was a pleasant and unexpected outcome. Early red card so back to good old Leicester basics - with an absolute masterclass from Ford. Los Pumas were very poor mind.

Well played by England. I turned it on after five minutes or so and saw there was a red card against and expected to watch a drubbing, but the Argies imploded after we kept our heads and Ford knocked over those drop goals. A ridiculous result, really, but it would be nice if we could keep a full complement on the pitch...

Shame about the performance! We are so far behind the big boys it’s scary.
Fiji’s physicality, counter rucking and turnover is outstanding.

England are rubbish, but they should still reach the Semi's tbh - doubt they'll get any further than that.  They've got all the players do do something but the coaching and selection is dreadful.

uruguay/portugal etc really stepping up this time around, and there's talks of expanding it which would be a good move as then you get 4 team groups with no bye weeks and the tier2/3 nations will have genuine chances to record world cup wins.

Plenty of tasty games to come before we even get to the knockout stages!
