England v Australia @ DW Stadium, Wigan

[sputneek]

Sin bin??

 

[aussies1st]

Thurston off and England in again

 

[user_nat]

Poor effort Australia.. poor.

Morris was defending like England in the first half, a winger in the middle of the field.

 

[Dragon]

LOL Ganson... what a strange fellow

 

[Light Reflections]

Biased prick.

 

[Ghoulies]

Haha. Oh Ganson. Will he at least pretend that he isn't doing all he can to keep England from being utterly embarrassed?

 

[kiwileaguefan]

harsh call to sin bin thurston...Australia have totally switched off in this second half...

 

[Evil Homer]

If we'd played properly for the whole game this would have been an easy win.

 

[Chriss]

Biased prick.

Couldnt agree more. He's been bias all game - most rediculous reffing I have ever seen.

 

[umina panther]

farrah back on haha why

 

[sputneek]

Farah back on again. FMD.

You could argue that if Australia played like they did in the first half we would win by 60.

 

[aussies1st]

FMD English almost in again

 

[sputneek]

Yes. This ref is biased no doubt.

 

[Evil Homer]

You could argue that if Australia played like they did in the first half we would win by 60.

Would they? 3 tries were as a direct result of Lee Smith being garbage, and one was an interception.

 

[user_nat]

I think England may have discovered the "run at Lockyer" tactic.

 

[Angry_eel]

England need to get rid of the winger and centre on right side. they would have won if it hadn't been for them.

 

[aussies1st]

Terrible 2nd half, if we play like this we will have 50 put on us. Good fightback by the English, hope they play like that for the rest of the tournament.

 

[TimmyB]

Reffing has certainly favoured England.

I wouldn't call it bias, just the difference of super league and the NRL. You get away with a lot more in the NRL. Ganson isn't letting our players do the same.

Though the Sin Bin was ridiculous.

Greg Inglis MOM...well played Greg.

and 23,000 watched the game, good stuff.
