Dalton Papalii Torches England For Opening Try

BY Philip Bendon · Saturday Nov 19, 2022

New Zealand are all the way back…. Or so the opening twenty minutes at Twickenham would have you believe.

The All Blacks have come out like a house on fire and have ripped through the English defence seemingly at will.

Leading the charge is the bleach blonde backrower Dalton Papalii who got his side off to a flying start with an interception try straight off a line-out.

Showing sensational pace, Papalii left the English defence for dead enroute to a crucial early blow.

As it stands New Zealand lead 14 – 3 deep into the first half.
