*********************************************************************
With England now being "OUT" OF THE RUGBY WORLD CUP. They clearly have nothing too lose.

SO all the players in the 31 who have not played a game yet should be given their chance.

The likes of Danny Care starting at 9 and Wigglworth on the bench.

Easter and Kruse, Slade etc etc.

what do you think.

What have they got too lose?

Nothing.

error after error.

Beginning to think we should get a 606 team together, we'd do better than this england team

England far from impressive.

thats probably why Care hasn't been playing. All the options to his left so he darts to the right on his own and turns it over

Have we declared offloads illegal? We seem to be going to ground and laying the ball back, or passing the ball when the opposition is no closer than three yards away.

It's utter dross.

Ford looks clueless, midfield is shocking.

This is dire.

Robshaw looks out of his depth, this is bad.....

I will relcutantly agree with you there. It makes me wonder why quinsforever was stating that England are as good as Wales in another thread earlier. Highly delusional comments.

If i was Stuart Lancaster i wpould be right PI"""D OF write now.

I bet he cannot wait to get out of the England set up.

This is a shambles of a game. it really is.

Dear God. A bank guy gets a yellow. That's a first

It makes a complete mockery of his comments earlier.

I appreciate it was probably a yellow but seems mean to give it in this game.

lol, it's great isn't it haha

Everyone running round like headless chickens.

Except Care who’s mooching around like a headless sloth.

And old king Cole who’s having a bit of a snooze. He must be the most rested player in the competition.

Still, fairly sure we'll sneak it.

Not sure what this thread has to do with Wales???

We've been bettered at the breakdown in that 1st half, it's simply not good enough.

they look disinterested

Again the structural problems are evident. No one to cut a line in the backs so the Uruguayans can drift. The. Forwards are slow to the breakdown so we aren't generating quick ball.
It's just so predictably poor

This is really not good enough from the England team.

You can clearly see how we lost both to Wales and Australia.

Is this display down too the coaches, or the English players?

Which ever it is, it is not good enough. We (England) should be playing better than this.

Or is it down to Uraguay not allowing England to play like they want too?

What is our strategy for this game? We seem to let the forwards have it for a bit, and then give it to the backs without any appreciation for where the opportunities might actually be at any given moment.

Can someone help me out here, the missus wants to know why she hasnt seen Prince Harry.?

Why have we picked a back line with 4 fly halfs???? Wtf are the management thinking!!!!

I believe England should reach at least 50 points. Uruguay look exhausted already. England are probably a little exhausted, but only mentally, and it's showing. England need a new coaching team with a new philosophy - plenty of good coaches available for you, especially in New Zealand!

This is just horrendous to watch

All these playmakers are making pretty passes but no one is going forward so it's all just Frak Poopie

about a quarter of that side should never play for England again after the world cup, why are they playing today

Sorry posted twice but still...
Forwards are lazy and we have no strike runners!!

But very true

Other than going wide who is there for Ford to pass to?

He only normally attends twickers, this is up north

she already knows that, I dont think she will buy it. i'll just tell her his car broke down.

I see our first try shouldn't have been awarded. It does seem as if officials switch off a little when lower ranked teams are involved.

When it was know that England was kicked out of the rugby world cup, he started supporting Wales?

So instead of being in Manchester, he may well be in London.

It was forwarded I thought that at the time.
How do our players think this is acceptable...this is their job! If I put in such performances ubwould be fired!

Good point nathan its good to see England taking Rugby out to the rural areas.

At last forwards run hard and clear out!!

Poor poor poor, no set moves in the backs just bush bash bosh.

I was expect so much more, these guys know the coaches are gone

Wouldn't really call Manchester a rural area, but the game needs growing up north

I think I'm gonna have a cow man - I've just seen Cole have a bit of a run. Might need to sub him now.

That's not bad. Hope we can do that against fifteen men too.

Watson is just a try scoring machine.

Reminds me of Rory Underwood.

So you are allowed to score against a team with a man in the sin-bin?
Someone should have told Wales

Harry now supports Australia, I think...

lol, your right!

Dan Cole needs to go on a diet as do most of our forwards, too fat and slow, the game appears to be changing.

Nice to hear had we gone for the kick vs Wales and drew the game we would have just qualified for the QF. Grrrr

thats awful my commentator, you can't say that!
