England v Tonga Test Series 2023

[Wb1234]

12-12 with England not playing that well. when they settled in second half Tonga never looked like winning.

If you take off the rose tinted glasses

England scored two tries through individual brillliace

they were getting belted in the forwards

Which I’d expect given the size difference of the two teams. England played to their strengths which was speed and footwork against the bigger but slower tongans. A classic case of a better backline beating a better forward pack.

I watched it with both eyes open

england were poor but individual brilliance kept them in it

England are not the only ones that have been able to handle that much more than the spiteful messages left on the phone

It’s typical sht advertising. England has a marketing gold mine in welsby and Lewis yet haven’t seen them at all this week, they should be plastered across social media and tv adverts.
