That was great despite the drop!

 

[Aucklander]

3 in the tackle and the ball just happens to pop out.

 

[Aucklander]

Last chance here for England to draw level.

 

[Aucklander]

Another incredibly dumb moment from England.

I enjoyed that game. Maybe hardened rl fans can criticise. But except for a moment where a guy on LU said Smith was out. That game took me whole attention away from the cricket.

Nice tough game That,I think all the boys will be happy they don't have to back up again next week.

A really tough good game of RL. England had their chances, 12 errors hurt them and silly plays early in the tackle count. They had the better of Australia in the final 30 minutes. Tough conditions to play in.

England can be proud, something to really build on and attack the next world cup in 4 years; which will be on home soil for them.

Nah, I enjoyed it thoroughly too. Good, tough game of footy.

I'm glad we made it competitive, but it told me what we already knew; our pack and our defence are the equal of any, but we don't have the backs and halves to win competitions. And although we continue to produce a remarkable quantity of talent from quite a small base, I don't see that changing anytime soon.
