2018 Denver Test - NZ 18-36 England @ Mile High

[typicalfan]

Whitehead I thought was offside in the lead up to the try

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Good kick, weird call

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Is this rugby union?

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Short ingoals.

No shorter than what you get at some England grounds and they still put up bombs and grubbers.

Been a good effort from a young Kiwi team, but the lack of polish from the halves is pretty obvious.

The game changed from the moment Jake Connor came on

 

[mave]

NZ look clueless

[Walt Flanigan]

Whitehead is doing whatever he wants out there

What's with the pommy ptb's? They just flop it back yawnion style. No foot on the ball

ESL ref equals ESL interpretation.

Exactly how it was in the NRL last season

Hoops with the scoop.
It looks like he is clutching his shoulder.
Thanks captain obvious.

The NRL has been penalising those for years with a particular crackdown this year. Lazy and sloppy by the poms trying to get a quicker ptb.

Put your foot on the ball, that's the rules

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Apparently John Elway would be happy with a pass that went soaring over the sideline

Look at the crusty old myth sitting up there thinking "who else can I sign for a pie and a coke"

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Nice try. A bit more experience, time together and some players who can give stronger direction around the park and the Kiwi's have a strong nucleus to work with.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Biggest crowd ever for a league game in the USA

Thowie would have been waiting all week to use that one.

It really was noticeable of who was from the NRL and who was from the ESL.
Glad it has been cleaned up over here.
