Ford's kicking from tee is unacceptably poor today.

Ford really needs to sort his kicking out, he's cost us the equivalent of a converted try now. It's not good enough.

Yep, terrible kicking by Ford.

That finish by Watson though ... he really has turned into the player I thought he would now, truly phenomenal winger.

Yep was a great finish.

Ford needs to sort this out though, an international kicker cannot be this poor.

We've coughed up way too many penalties today.

That's three cracking finishes by England.

Ford misses again.

9 points now missed by Ford. This is one of the poorest kicking displays I've ever seen.

Ford's head has gone, I can forgive him missing the conversion for the Watson try, but the other 3 were awful.

There's 4, Clifford has got some jets on him.  I don't understand why they were calling it a knock on, the ball clearly went backwards.  I'm now convinced that Biggar doesn't understand what a knock-on is and a couple of commentators seem lost by the concept as well.

There was a nice little clip of what Harrison brings with the ball in hand there, shame he's at 6 not 7 so he hasn't been able to get involved in the battle on the floor.

Fair play to Yarde, brilliant play from 2-3 people in the build up, the hand off by lawes and the turnover/pickup from the floor by harrison were superb, the latter was largely missed by the commentators though.

This will be an impressive win considering how awful Ford has been.

The thing Is Ford has done well in game, it's just his tee kicking that has been shocking.

Thing is though as a kicker you can't miss that many kicks.
