@bencoles_ If that is Ojomoh, he whips the ball across the Italian defence to Daly and England get on the outside. Time for a ball-playing second receiver in the England team

After ten minutes, England had 96% territory and 74% possession. And nothing to show for it.
This later decision to kick by Seb Atkinson, with the options available, is up there as one of their more frustrating moments.
@willgkelleher@TimesSport Get a drum in like England Rugby League and England football for chants; Trumpeter a la England Cricket; encourage singing like England Football; good music essential - pick the songs people want to actually sing
A thought for you...
England fans. What would you do to improve the Twickenham atmos, make it a "horrible place" to go as J George said, more engaging for English & less welcoming, hospitable for away teams?
You can't say make it £20 tickets, and beers £3... @TimesSport
Entirely deserved @Scotlandteam. Really happy for them and their fans as well. Definitely the worst and least imaginative @EnglandRugby performance I’ve ever seen. Eddie Jones being tested again and rightfully so! The lack of plan b is worrying.
@OwainJTJones Both tries should have should not have been given. NZ 4 side entry into ruck for first try, Goodhue knock on in ruck before second try. Owens not having a good game here
All Blacks been brilliant both sides of the ball so far. Ireland need a breather. Need to regroup, but they're not being given a chance. Smith goes over for his second. Shock and awe.

Horrible reffing. Tier 1 team, you keep the ball till you score. Tier 2 team cannot turn you over or come from onside position. If you still can’t score never fear, I will send cheating Tier 2 players to the bin.
@diggers Both forward, both correct decisions - in real time called it, and on replays confirmed it. Tough, but they are the rules. Players can adapt and not face these issues
Gutted the game’s off, especially for the fans. Anyway, tag an @EnglandRugby fan who’s travelled to Japan and I’ll pick one to sort out with some of my #RWC2019 stash

@CharlieGoodwin They weren’t eligible as hadn’t played 100 games. Needed a cut off point to make the poll manageable/doable. Explained in the poll stories but forgot to mention in the result (will add).
