Rubbish handling from Wilson.

It's been very good so far, but we've made a few unforced errors.

Good half, we've pierced their defence a few times and made a few too many unforced errors. We've got to keep up the intensity and take our chances.

We really are developing our running game very well.

This shows the strength in depth we have, we've been the better side and with a bit more attention and some slightly less dubious refereeing we should've gone in ahead (the last penalty for NZ was shit, their guy moved out of the ruck so haskell had no one to ruck against and fell over the top, never a penalty.

Burns and Parling have been superb so far.

We need to get our composure back a bit here.

there was always going to be a period where they kept the ball in hand and put pressure on us, this is very good defending right now.

Yep and our scrum has been excellent. Whatever the result here, for such a weakened side this is very impressive.

Poor from Owens again, Burns knocked that backwards.

Nigel Owens needs to learn the difference between forwards and backwards

Owens has given us fuck all and it's putting us under pressure.  I like him as a personailty but I hate him reffing England games.

Need to cut the errors here and get some territory.
