Vinipola spills ball with first touch and SA have a penalty almost in front....

 

SA slightly in the ascendancy

 

Got to keep the lead till half time

 

Back to 3 point game

 

Get in. Great kick

 

Great kick

 

At least Farrell has his kicking boots on!

 

Think Erasmus will be paying a visit to the refs room at HT

 

Half time. Well well well, brilliant stuff from England, can we keep it up for 80 mins ? Come on

 

Soooooooo much better than i expected.

Keep it up lads!

 

Impressive first half from England....

 

A very different game from the last SA outing. I wonder what the French make of it. England suppressing SA so far...

 

Boks line out a mess, England must be delighted so far.

Let’s not start to dream…..

 

Good 1st half from England, a dour battle but we've tactically had the edge. Must keep our discipline in 2nd half...

 

Bejaysus there’s 3 of us shouting for ye here

 

1st try could well be decisive in this, we've got to try and make sure we get it ! Or alternatively just kick them to death lol

 

I could see England facing a storm at the start of the second half. Need to weather it

 

Got England +2 at 9/2. GSTK.

 

Ffs huge chance gone, gotta throw it in straight there ! Costly

 

The French were too loose and ‘open’ against the Bokke, as a result there were gaps and space for SA to benefit from.

England’s ‘dour’ style is working - keeping it tight and forcing errors from the Bokke
