They need to play better in second half to consolidate the lead now.

Our backrow were terrible for the first 20, he needs to change it up for the next test.

Brown has had a really poor half.

Subbing Burrell when he did was incredibly harsh, i understand why but I think singling him out like that was unfair.

Yep and it's going to be hard for Burrell to come back from that. Robshaw and Haskell, unsurprisingly, are doing nowhere near enough at the breakdown.

Brilliant by Haskell there and that pass from Ford was great. Hopefully that'll boost his confidence.

Well I've never been his biggest fan, but I have to admit Haskell was immense today.

And how good were our bench ?

Agree, Dave.
James Haskell was fantastic.
Pleased for George Ford, too. Did exceptionally well when he came on. Brave move by Eddie Jones to bring him on for Burrell.

Just how good is Maro Itoje?

That was fantastic.  It could be an epic series as Australia will improve from here.
