Their teams are not full of over aged, over paid brits on their jollies looking for a last pay day.

Our only chance was to put the pressure on and keep it tight.
In a game of unpressurised beach rugby the Aussies would win every time.
We did that for quite a period.
The problem is there are some mavericks that give penalties away, and on the back of penalties come tries.
And then the seesaw tips.
JJB ... well done you numb-skull.
Decent players like JJB and Westwood need re-educating in the field of penalty avoidance.

Who cares ... we are light years behind Australia.

What upsets me most about our defeat is that we go into series of matches without a recognised no 7 in our squad.

The coach must go . I donot know who would want the job but thats nor our problem.

Why do we have international rules , 99% of fans donot understand them also the England players didnt. I am refering to the incident in the 2nd half .

If your refering to the Ellis incident I didn't think the Aussie players understood them either Uate looked furious with himself and as far as I could tell him and the rest of the Australians looked just as confused as we did.

Have to agree with your wonderings on international rules in this case

In some games a lot of fans don't understand the way our referees apply the English rules.

Until we stop all the overseas players coming over here and taking all the key positions we will never catch the Aussies.
