    I dunno. I think the selection is fully justified. Our wastefulness up front in the 22 in first half is the only reason this game was close.

    Conan and Henshaw starting next week would be the only changes barring any injuries.

    Simon Easterby, the only international rugby manager alive with 100% winning record. A living legend.

    England attack has been really bad in the second half. We have played well but England has fallen to pieces

    One of the worst performances in a long time and they still secure the BP against England. What a time to be alive.

    As a Sam fan, I have to say Crowley is very good since on.

    It's a great situation we're in.

    I listened to Brian O'Driscoll at HT on ITV remain so calm about the performance, or lack thereof in my view.

    I should have shared his confident patience.

    This second half performance has been levels above the first, not hard I know, but 22-0 so far.

    Conan Sheehan and Crowley the difference. Doris and Porter came good as well.

    Crowley has the benefit of Ireland winning at the rucks, we played with much slower ball in the first half.

    I wasn't happy with the blame landing on Crowley when NZ beat us in the AIs, I wouldn't be blaming Sam for the slow start today nor our slow ball.

    Gibson Park wins man of the match. Him and Lowe were the 2 standout performers.

    Crowley clearly the best option at outhalf at the moment. Prendergast had two poor decisions directly before both England scores. Quite slow to gey his kicks away and real lack of pace.

    Massive difference since Crowley came on. Far more pace, better decisions, Goal kicking better too. For me he needs to be given the starting berth for the remaining games.

    Lawrence has been lively - be worth keeping an eye on him for the rest of the tournament

    Conan has been great coming on. JGP and Lowe are game changers.

    Hansen is weak, I wouldn't have him in the 22.

    Can't be arsed getting in to the Prendergast/Crowley debate- it's tedious. I'm glad we have two out halves competing against each other.
