    Australia 10-11 England

    England are really drinving now as Owen Farrell looks to go for the corner with Tommy Freeman sprinting on. Just, just, too long.

    One-dimensional England? Not in this half.

    And there we go. England win a defensive penalty and will have the chance to clear away.

    Richard Taylor: England trying really hard, but it all looks a bit laboured and predictable. There isn’t that spark, that joy or showmanship that every side needs. EJ is such a dogmatist that he has squeezed any spontaneity out of them.

    Henry Ellison: Love the bloke but think that is the last we see of Danny Care in an England shirt. Hauled off early and deserved to be. Was very poor.

    Mark Burt: Grim viewing for England fans. Some will argue test rugby is all about the result but they won’t be playing teams missing 9 starters every week. If this was against Ireland, they’d be obliterated. Change is needed.

    Robin Johnson: England already look a different team with JVP on at 9.

  12. Sensational Ireland make history in Wellingtonpublished at 12:03 British Summer Time 16 July 2022

    FT: New Zealand 22-32 Ireland

    This morning Ireland beat the All Blacks to clinch their first-ever series win in New Zealand.

    Tries from Van der Flier, Keenan and Henshaw gave the Irish a healthy lead at the break, but after an All Black comeback a superb score from Herring saw Ireland extend the lead before claiming an incredible win.

    Take a look at Michael Morrow's match report.

    The forwards took it upon themselves to make their own decisions, all of a sudden they were making the carries and inches that gave the the momentum

    It's a great bisecting line from Steward, he is down as one of England's most important players. He is durable, reliable and massively consistent.

    Well that half livened up a bit.

    Try: Australia 10-11 Englandpublished at 41 mins

    Freddie Steward

    Freeman, Lawes, they're all trying but can anyone get England over?

    Replacement Jack van Poortvliet picks the perfect pass to Freddie Steward who uses his momentum to bundled past the Australia line and give England the lead.

    Owen Farrell's conversion is missed.

    Freeman is pulled back inches away from the line on the left. That looked a certain try.

    Off the posts!!! But.....

    Australia keep the ball in play and Courtney Lawes is straight in with the tackle, not allowing Australia to get the ball away and England have another penalty. This time they kick for the corner.

    Right call to take Danny Care off? Hit the thumbs up if you agree. Down if you don't.
