OK,

Having been at Welford Rd where, due to TMO and injuries, the match severely overun, I have not seen the Englands game. Heard much of the first half on radio (sounded liek an amazing defensive display and first time sing 98 that NZ have failed to score points in a half) and early second half (till 15-14). At that point I decided to concentrate on driving + younger daughter wanted to sleep.

Sky has a replay at 23:00 is it worth recording and watching tomorrow?

Were there any stand-out performances?

And thinking parochially how did the Leicester boys play and did they get injured?

LT

I would definately watch it if your an England fan, but just try to assess whats going on clearly and not jump on the Sausage bandwagon.

Very good performance by England against an out of sorts NZ, I cringed a touch watching it but you can't fault the result!!!

Its worth watching. AB's were not at their best, but we didn't give them an inch. Wood and Launchbury were superb. Ashton still not good enough. It's worth watching just to Manu actually pass. Brown was brilliant considering he was not in his favoured position. A great effort by England .

It was a good win for England, yes in perspective New Zealand were not at their best but England played well and you can only beat whats in front of you and England got it very right today. Congratulations. clap Just don't expect that kind of hospitality when you come to the Aviva Wink On another note why did Ashton feel the need to do that stupid and totally unneeded swan dive I honestly really hope every time he does that from now on he drops the ball. Its disrespectful and you don't see the All Blacks doing things like that when they beat teams, he didn't even do anything to score the try was just on the shoulder for a good break. Still excellent job England.

LT- a thousand times yes. I have been to twicks for the better part of 20 years for games, and tonight was one of the best, if not the best, i have ever seen.

I ended up sitting next to a family, which i rather enjoy, as opposed to sitting next to drunken Muppet. Anyways, at the end of the game watching mum/dad & son on their feet screaming themselves hoarse is something i'll remember for a long time.

England & SL showed what they can do. For this game it clicked completely. Enjoy the replay.

Robshaw, Wood, Barrit, Tuilagi and Launchbury were the standouts if the highlights are anything to go by. Ashton seems to be taking a few plaudits but he's still rubbish in my opinion and played rubbish today. Unsure on Farrell, but obviously he was good enough today.
