England not just brutes with no skill or speed?

The All Blacks are dismissing suggestions England will provide a one-dimensional threat at Twickenham on Sunday morning claiming the hosts have proven they're far more than just a bunch of big forwards.

In the past England have focused their game around a massive pack keeping the ball close to the ruck and kicking for territory.

However the All Blacks assistant coach Wayne Smith says England have shown they can play an expansive backline game and the men in black would be foolish to think otherwise.
