Internationals Spoilers: New Zealand -V- England

[Skinny_Ravs82]

Who's nervous?!?!

 

[Jesbass_old]

England knock it on, but it looked back to me at first glance. That COULD be the game, but we've still got 4 to go.

 

[Skinny_Ravs82]

knocked on! Kiwis off the hook in the last few minutes

 

[IanS_old]

Jesus. Error after error. Come on. Basic footy.

 

[Jesbass_old]

Who's nervous?!?!

Kearney.

 

[Jesbass_old]

Got to the halfway mark at the end of our set. Fien kicks for touch but Pryce gets it and looks to spark something, but Gardner knocks on! (Again, it didn't look too forward at first glance.)

 

[Jesbass_old]

3 to go. Get the try, boys, and let's go home.

 

[Skinny_Ravs82]

Kiwis get the scrum just 10meters out and time is nearly up I think

 

[Jesbass_old]

I think we're going for a field goal...

 

[Jesbass_old]

Fien kicks across field, Vatuvei passes it back and Benji scores!

TRYTRYTRYTRYTRYTRYTRYTRYTRYTRY!!!

[Skinny_Ravs82]

Benji scores!!

Kiwis are off to the World Cup Final!!!!!!!!!!!!!

32-22 ktc

 

[Jesbass_old]

Still 2 minutes to go, but England won't be back.

 

[Jesbass_old]

What a horrible reward for the winner - the chance to get hammered by the Aussies, lol. It's like winning The Contender to get pummeled by Oscar de la Hoya! :lol1:

 

[Jesbass_old]

Smith narrowly misses. 80th minute.

New Zealand 32 (Ropati 2, Perrett, Hohaiai, Harrison, Marshall tries; Smith 3/5 goals, Marshall 1/1)
England 22 (McGuire 2, Peacock, Gleeson tries; Purdham 0/1 goal, Burrow 3/3 goals)

 

[Skinny_Ravs82]

and Smith comes back to take the kick (this a type of kick Witty would do with his eyes closed! haha)

misses it stays 32-22 and game over

 

[Jesbass_old]

Cayless knocks on from the kick off, but that's full time.

New Zealand 32 (Ropati 2, Perrett, Hohaiai, Harrison, Marshall tries; Smith 3/5 goals, Marshall 1/1)
England 22 (McGuire 2, Peacock, Gleeson tries; Purdham 0/1 goal, Burrow 3/3 goals)

 

[Jesbass_old]

I am NOT looking forward to next week. We scraped through. We limped like a bad poker player. Seriously, we need to step up - no, leap up - to have a chance.

 

[Jesbass_old]

Benji being interviewed after the game says there's a lot of improvement in the team - I sure hope so.

 

[Jesbass_old]

Cayless being interviewed acknowledging that we slackened off and recognises that there's plenty of hard work to be done.
