    Dear Mr English player...want to compete, come play in the best Comp.

    The fans in England are also keen to see the young players moving over to improve in the NRL. We should do it the degree where only 50% of NRL players are eligible for the Roos and see if that will knock them down a peg or two.:lol:

    So is it proven once and for all?

    England's backs did cost them. The forwards didn't have any trouble at all getting England into the position to create good scoring chances. In the first half and the period around which Burgess got his second we had more than enough ball on the Australia goal line. But did anyone ever feel...

    USA 37 - Jamaica 22

    Whatever happened to Nate Smith? He was being touted as a future NRL player a few years back?

    International Rugby League - Looking healthy ..

    Union has a bigger salary cap and compensates any marquee signings from league. We're just lucky there hasn't been anyone worthy of it. SL has no money at all, relying totally on the payments from Sky television, which given the economic downturn will be disasterous when the TV deals are next...

    International Rugby League - Looking healthy ..

    Give over. The Union players in the UK are of a higher standard than in SL now. Sure they still have the rolly polly forwards but their backs are better. Union is a much bigger sport in the UK too, so the chances of signing a Union player already attached to a club is bordering on the...

    James Roby - thoughts?

    What more could Ellis do? He made a couple of try saving cover tackles, tackled well and put Burgess in for his second half try.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    You could argue that it did. The two decisions after England regained the lead in the second half went to Australia and were both wrong. The penalty against Sinfield which gave Australia the field position for the Slater dive over was the wrong call, Thurston was clearly pulling Sinfield down...

    James Roby - thoughts?

    He was a player who was brought through in SL to work off the back of Keiron Cunningham. Up until last season in SL the play the balls were ultra quick and Saints could go 60 metres following a collision win through a run from Cunningham and a scoot from Roby. Their combination was a large part...

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    Phil Clarke sums up the stupidity that is the SL clubs. 53% of Super League players can play for England. Shocking. The fact that the input from the youth systems is so terrible in terms of depth, England have absolutely no chance of ever beating Australia, ever.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    International league is still well and truly dead. There really is no point having a world cup or a four nations next year. Just have a series every other between Aus and NZ.

    England sleeping again......

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    Thurston and the ref are clearly having an affair. Get a room. Disgusting to see grown men flirting on a rugby pitch.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    Flying headbutt from Hannant. Shenton will wake up hopefully, though it might be sometime next week.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    Another stupid call. England are getting nothing.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    Another stupid, soft try but what about the penalty call that leads to it? Just what are the touchies doing and why don't they have a word in the refs ear about that? It's good, professional cheating by Thurston, but you need the officials to be on top of basic stuff like that. It was so...

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    The referee called the heel touch unintentional. Hayne pointed to his eyes and told the ref to "Use your f'ing eyes you pri$k" to which the ref replies, "You didn't mean to do it". Stevo who is a world cup winner and the other commentators didn't know if that exists as a rule or not.

    4 Nations Final - Australia vs England

    A good comparison. Fielden's career was ended not by Mason's punch, but by the death of his mother that hit him so hard. That and playing so much so young and leaving his body weak. Sam Burgess has suffered a similar personal tragedy, losing his father to cancer. But he hasn't let it affect his...

    Referee for Final?

    Which begs the question of just what a 'video referee observer' actually does? From the title one would assume it means he is put there as a representative of the Australian side to ensure that the official video referee is not being biased or incompetent. Which then begs the question of why...
