i actually fancy them to turn england over now..


we've lost our scrum half and hooker...and Mcbanana has brought in the wigan reserve hooker as cover...


our weakest link is without doubt our coach...i'd sack him now and replace him with nathan brown,at least brown has experience of coaching english talent

Silverwood in the ANZAC Test, hahahahaha, the teams weren't getting back far enough, it wasn't a good match, he hardly penalised. There weren't that many pass plays, Origin I was a much better spectacle.

The grassed area around Headingly isn't big enough. Orgin players have 10 days preperation time.


I agree, theres a difference between letting the game flow and not just blowing the whistle at all... Players will push the boundaries if you don't police them, and that happened in the test.

from SL website:

"The Exiles final training day sees Captain Danny Buderus put the Exiles through their paces."


Why was a coach not appointed??? Makes it even more farcical...

I hope the RFL don't recoup the money they have used on their completely disproportionate promotional campaign.

thanks RS, didn't realise.

to be honest i haven't been following this match at all, i still don't like the concept. But i hope it's a good game and a good turnout.

Loved the score line.

Starting to think that McNamara might not be the best man for the job. Not that Wayne Bennett would get England to be much better. With wendyball and rugby having so much more money than League in Europe, maybe it's time to shut up shop. I'd prefer to see a Kiwis v Oz 3 match series most years anyway.
