England have been growing, and second halves have both been won by ABs, so don't discount SA yet. BB was amazing off the bench too, such energy

Oh im not discounting SA, on the evidence of these two games I'm expecting them to sweep Razor's ABs this year. But, it's still early days and he hasn't had a lot of time with this team yet.

Did you catch the moment where a ruck had formed and one of the English players was doing the usual grab a leg to hold a player in, but it was Nic Berry! :)

Like a light switch. England had all the momentum at that point. Also props to Cortez what a time to come in on debut. Did the job.

Yeah he looked pretty composed and his service from the ruck was very Aaron Smith like.
