The Kangaroos were drinking the night before.

They were, it was actually Bennett who snapped them out of it at halftime telling them not to embarrass themselves and their country anymore. I remember it well, great game.

It's strange that in a sport where we are continually criticised for only having 3 competitive nations, a nation ranked 13th beats 3rd and most people just want to bag England.

I wouldn't read much into it. It's a warm-up. Well done to the Italian boys though.

Whoever runs the domestic comp in Italy should be petitioning the Italian government for funding now! Might not be so fortunate next week.

I had a sense of impending doom so I did what any England fan would do and pulled out my phone to capture the moment of embarrassment :lol:

Good stuff Italy. Great to see them win even if England played half arsed. At least theres some kind of sign that teams outside the big 3 are getting better.

Haha, everyone was laughing as it went over, as they should.

Too many people worrying about a warm up match, ahh well, pity it's not in the test record books, that really would've been funny.

Until most of the Poms play in the NRL you will remain 3rd.

Forgive me for not being up to date. .. but why the warm ups ? And where has the game results and fixture details been broadcast ? I realise I could search for all this but ffs if they want this world cup shit to work they need to be promoting and adverstising it

lol, I simply got everything on my facebook.

All I had was my shitty non-smart phone and got all the news and results and score updates without picking up the paper or going on a computer or watching tv or listening to the radio.

A simple trip to nrl.com and you would see all you need.
