    That was either brilliant play or very lucky.

    But they are as bad as us with the constant knocking the ball on.

    That's more like it. Steward deserves that.

    Already looking much more dynamic with Smith on the pitch.

    Improved towards the end. Deserved to win but made it look extremely difficult.

    So many forward passes. Both teams. Do we not penalize them anymore?

    Chile had an early spell whete they looked good with ball in hand, but for the last 30 minutes there we've really smashed them.

    Nice mix of forward dominance and backs getting involved. Arundell and Smith are both showing their class.

    Classy again from Arundel. He's a good player. 52-0.

    That often happens this stage of the game with all the subs both teams make.

    I would significantly reduce the number of substitutions allowed. For me, it spoils the game. I want to watch 15 v 15 not 273 v 273.

    They do come off as well, they don't all stay on at the same time.

    Anyway, I thought back in your day they used to have 500 a side, using a decapitated head.
