This Georgia v Portugal game has been enjoyable, conditions are good so there hasn't been handling errors every 30 seconds.

What a finish! 18-18 and a missed kick from either side in the last 2 minutes

Really wanted Portugal to nick that at the end, they've been such good value so far. Great game

Chile look decent, not afraid to play a bit

Chile looked like a bit of a threat and then England woke up.

Smith showing some top quality there

Just about adequate half from England. Handling errors aren't Borthwick's fault and the intent is there.

Smith showing some top quality there Farrell could totally do that. Care, Daly and Malins have been absolute gash.

Chile's lineout just isn't up to it

Owen really pulling the strings here against the mighty Chile, I think we have no choice but to start him at 10 after such a commanding performance

They should get Austin Healey on the coaching staff if they want this many utility backs

I gave up watching when England crossed the 50-point mark.
Nick Mullins (?) talking about how different life is for the Chile players, compared to their England counterparts - quitting jobs, moving cities, sacrificing relationships, etc., all to have a chance to play at the tournament - one minute, then bigging up England's performance with, "Where's this team been?" the next, as though this was ever going to be anything but a rout.

Yeah it was Mullins. I absolutely fucking hate him.

0 from 4 of your own lineouts is an interesting strategy.

Both teams are going to be knackered at the end of this match.

This is some game!
Pretty neutral re the result, although on balance I think I'd like to see Ireland nick it.
I'll be cheering for Wales tomorrow (and feeling bloody weird in the process).
