One very dodgy VR call (couldn't see the offside for the love of me) and some suspect calling in mainly our favour but some unbelievable brainfarts from most of the England players who clearly cannot handle the pressure.

McNamara will make himself a god if he can sort them out in the break.

Priceless to see Sheens face for the penalty try. Absolutely correct decision, he would have definately scored, as we know he only needs a single blade of grass these days and he had a good five metres to touch.

Balls - the Aussies are lucky not to penalised out of the game. Pathetic performance from them. They're not the same Aussies who would hit hard but play it fast, it's just the Michael Maguire school of rugby league being allowed by inept officials.

Its a sad state of affairs that the majority of posts on here during a game nowadays are all about the officials. Posters on here are utterly obsessed. Hardly any discussion of the game at all.

You can't blame everything on the Aussies slowing down the game. How come Wilkin and Ellis have been left to kick on the 5th for a starters? Is Rangi Chase out there? What were our left side backs doing when Hall was trying to bring them into the game? Why are we standing, waiting to tackle rather than getting in their faces? And why are we tackling high against huge brutes of men? They are slowing down the tackle because of their techniques, we on the other hand aren't and yes, it has got Aussie slow it down written all over it but when they have the ball in hand they look like they could score or toy with us on every attack, we don't.

You make your own luck. Australia could be rueing all those missed chances come a quarter to eight.

Haven't seen the half time analysis but surely Tomkins was tackled without the ball as he tried to get back to the ball. You can tackle a player not in possession if he's juggling the ball but surely not if it has bounced yards away.






This is why events unnerve me.

Exactly. If England played like Aus did, we'd have "Oh we're rubbish, we've not taken our chances we've got no chance". COME ON ENGLAND!

Don't say I didn't warn you after England's poor performance last week. People need to watch the game rather than the scoreboard.

If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.
