George Ford kicked everything, including three first-half drop goals, to give 14-man England a pressure-relieving 27-10 win over Argentina at the Rugby World Cup on Saturday.
Written off ahead of the tournament and down a man from the opening minutes after flanker Tom Curry's head clash with Juan Cruz Mallia resulted in a red card, England took nearly every chance that came its way from a careless Argentina to start Pool D with a big win that no one saw coming.
Argentina replacement Rodrigo Bruni scored the only try in the last minute when it was already over, as Argentina finally put a string of phases together without making a mistake to wear down an heroic England defense that had already done its job. Bruni bundled his way over in a forward surge. The yellow was upgraded to red by TMO Marius Jonker, meaning Curry played no more part and his first game back since May because of injury lasted barely three minutes. He briefly put his head in his hands as he sat in the sin-bin, then started to peel off the bandage medics had applied to fix a cut that came from the clash.It was England's third red card in four games, with Farrell and No.

Greenbelt blowback continues to slam Ford government | Front Burner | CBC PodcastsDoug Ford’s Greenbelt scandal continues to deepen. In the past few weeks, there have been two high-profile political resignations, revelations about a mysterious consultant known as “Mr. X”, and another provincial watchdog who panned the Greenbelt land swap as rushed and flawed.
