England flanker Lewis Ludlow will face a disciplinary hearing after being cited for striking with the knee in Saturday’s 70-14 victory over Canada.

Ludlow, who was leading the team for a second successive match, struck the head of Canada front row Jake Ilnicki 30 minutes into the game at Twickenham.

The 26-year-old was sent to the sin-bin but the citing officer deemed the offence worthy of a red card, thereby triggering a virtual hearing on Thursday evening.

The losing teams ratings are higher than the winning team?

Lots of 8s for a team with a 44% win ratio. When they eventually win again, we should see 11/10s.

All Blacks player ratings vs England | Autumn Nations Series

Compare these to the England ratings and you'd think the ABs lost by 30. Every English player was apparently fantastic and nearly every All Black was rubbish? Jeez, wait till the All Blacks actually play well then, if you can't beat a bunch 4s and 5s out of 10 then there's no hope. But, this is Ben Smith we are talking about, he produces some of the worst rugby takes in media.

England should have kept Marcus Smith on. He was running hot. Apart from the intercept try England didn't really look like scoring a try. NZ created far more opportunities, but they bombed almost all of them either by giving away penalties, pushing risky passes or knock-ons. Pretty frustrating. Their game management is also way below par.

Thought England got the rub of the green until about 60 mins when the ref started to level up the penalties.

Do Ben Smith's initials also stand for BS? Hard to figure out how we managed to win that game if we all played so badly? Will Jordan 6.5? Really? AB's made plenty of mistakes some of which were due to great England pressure. Amua's throwing was faultless in the 1st half before being all over the place in the 2nd and he was great round the field so 6 is fair. But if it wasn't for an intercept England would have been try less. We scored 4 one was disallowed. So no, England should not have won that match. Borthwick should know by now you're unlikely to beat the AB's in 3

He's not saying they can't do that. He's just calling them morons for doing it. It's called an "opinion". Deal with it. Or are you into mind control?

Hard to argue with any of this. The biggest takeaway for me was we found a way to win & to win late. Early on we would've crumbled.

I suspect Razor will change up his team next year & Reiko & Jordie won't be the midfield. But for now, with 3 tests to go, it makes no sense to change v IRE & FRA.

"The Home Unions have only won SIXTEEN test matches out of a total tests played of 152 versus". NZ were blessed! Boasting after that scrape? But congratulations on your personal achievement. 😉

And I am saying the match is in England's House and he and you should show respect and manners. Can you point me to the rule/etiquette that the English spectators by singing their rugby song as response to the Haka?
