Conspiracy theories are silly. It's just an overly pedantic decision.

NZ kicking the ball back to England too much. Understand that they don't want to be pinned inside their 22, but they're not taking much territory with their clearing kicks and they're unable to make inroads on English ball at the lineouts. Need to change tactics. Pile up the phases, keep the ball in hand, and work the ball out incrementally. Then attack from there.

Overly pedantic? It was wrong!

England have to regroup and stay calm and composed. Must start doing things with a bit more clarity with the ball in hand.

What a game this is. I’d be in bits if this was Wales. Fair play, your heads could’ve dropped after that but shown good character.
