Anyone else experiencing sound breaking up on Sky?

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Not here.

Jeez Sky, it's Dalton 'Papilee' not whatever you are saying.

[PhilboSE]

NZ should have been pinged for De Groot standing up there.

Agreed.

I think he will be if it continues. But he had all his mates piling over which masked it.

Lucky.

[PhilboSE]

Well worked pressure try.

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Marler off?

That's a big loss.

[PhilboSE]

Tough debut for Baxter.

[PhilboSE]

Entire NZ front row stood up at that scrum.

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Shhhh!

[Kermit power]

What was the ref doing calling tackle there???

The Kiwi player was almost bolt upright?

[prand]

NZ looking predictably strong, England having their good moments but the ball is being kicked too much by England in attacking positions for my liking. Nz set scrum is impressive (though arguably the wrong side of the laws). When was the last time an All Black scrum was heavier than England's?

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Agree with that Prand.

Lot tighter than I thought it would be. Second half will be interesting.

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Ref not having a great game. Missing loads of infringements on both sides.

[Jasey_]

Neck roll my arse.

And as for that put in.

[Kermit power]

How has he called that straight at the line?!?

[PhilboSE]

For gods sake. NZ lineout thrown straight at the receiver and ref calls it fair.

[Jordie Barretts sock]

Like I said, ref not having a great game.

[Jasey_]

It was actually heading straight for the ref !
