Some more on it:
Lawrence Dallaglio tonight vowed that England will be competitive in Saturday's second Test against New Zealand - and claimed that changes are inevitable.
England head coach Clive Woodward intends naming his line-up tomorrow, with several players sweating on starting places. Woodward has promised not to over-react following England's 36-3 drubbing in Dunedin, when the world champions suffered their heaviest defeat for six years.
But the axe looks certain to fall, both up front and behind the scrum, as England find themselves facing a huge test of character.
"Inevitably there will be changes, because you cannot lose by that many points and not look at certain positions," said England skipper Dallaglio. "We have come down here to be competitive, and that's exactly what will happen in the next two Tests (against New Zealand and Australia).
"Any defeat is disappointing, particularly to those who are not used to losing, and I haven't lost many in the last couple of years. We must not forget we won the last 12 meetings with Southern Hemisphere teams before the Dunedin Test, and while we have lost heavily, a lot of hard work went into creating that record and we must bounce back."
While England continued licking their wounds today, the All Blacks conducted an opening training session watched by 3,000 adoring fans at Waitemata Rugby Club, in Auckland's Henderson suburb.
The ground, where All Blacks legend Michael Jones played his club rugby, was packed as a vibrant feelgood factor remained following Saturday's crushing success.
Four players - wing Doug Howlett (shoulder), scrum-half Justin Marshall (knee), centre Tana Umaga (cramp) and flanker Richie McCaw (headache) - sat out training, with only Howlett giving any cause for concern.
But while the All Blacks ride a crest of a wave, England must effectively start again after being left floundering hopelessly in the blocks.
"If we don't get certain basics right, then we will get well beaten here, and we must play our game with the passion and emotion that is required at this level. Everyone who faces England, automatically finds that level because we are the world champions. Our passion has to come from every player, and I don't know why it wasn't there in Dunedin," added Dallaglio.
"The scoreline does look very damaging, but it was down to several missed tackles that let them in for what I consider easy tries at this level.
"Yes, they took them well, but they didn't have to work incredibly hard to score. There was no recovering from that first-half performance, but if we had competed in the first half as we did in the second, then it would have been a much closer contest." |
