Welcome back to the Pick and Go Podcast! Despite an impressive opening 20 minutes from the All Blacks, England came out swinging, determined to crush their grand slam hopes. What began as a promising display quickly unraveled the All Blacks’ attack looked disjointed, at times even schoolboy-like, while England simply wanted it more.Wales finally broke their 19-game drought with a gritty one-point win over Japan a result that brought much-needed relief and belief back into their camp. Ireland, meanwhile, comfortably put Australia to bed. The Wallabies looked tired, mentally drained, and still feeling the aftereffects of a long and punishing Lions campaign. The All Blacks now face Wales this weekend to close out the northern tour. After a mixed series of performances, fans will be hoping the men in black can finish strong and remind everyone what this team is truly capable of when they find their rhythm.
