I will be there.

After the game at Wembley--with a little luck on out side--i believe/hope we are in with a real shout for this game.

Yeh i'll be there hoping that Tomkins plays like he did against the Kiwis.

I've never understood this Yorkshire based hate towards Sam Tomkins, how dare he be a brilliant natural talent and not play for our club!

It's not Yorkshire based, no one west of the Pennines likes him either other than the Pie eaters.

Quote ="rupert bear"It's not Yorkshire based, no one west of the Pennines likes him either other than the Pie ">eaters.'" That's just worse then! Although he got a pretty good reception at the LSV on week one of the 4Nations

Tomkins is quite brilliant, especially for one so slight.

He's brave and I for one am astounded by how he has not been crippled by some frustrated pie-muncher he has given the run around to.



For England he has been great and no doubt has won a lot of cynical critics over.

People will no doubt go back to hating him once the England game is over, because they are fickle and jealous.



I hope he has a blinder against the dirty Aussies, get's the man of the match and shuts some folk up.



He's special, Wigan are lucky to have him.

People hate Wigan, so people hate Sam Tomkins.

If he played for their club people would love him.



OK he's tugged a few arms and milked a few penalties, but he seems to have stopped most of that and has become the target of some savage attacks to injury him and put him out of the game.

But he keeps getting up ... marvellous!

Testify brother

The high tackle followed by the blatant dropped elbow to the head by the Kiwi's on Saturday really lowered my opinion of them.



He's arguably the best player in the country at the moment, let him be arrogant (although I think arrogance and confidence are often mistaken)

I am no Leeds fan but i think some one like Kevin Sinfield is a class above in his sportmanship and general manner as well as being a great player.

Quote ="rupert bear"He's still an arrogant to**er though. icon_biggrin.gif" alt="icon_biggrin.gif" title="Very Happy" />'" Actually, he has a lot to be arrogant about, if he indeed he is arrogant ... which I doubt. PLUS, to his credit, he is quite modest when he scores tries ... which doesn't fit in well with the image some people like to portray of him. He is not a crowd inciter or anything like that or someone who milks the applause to the point of nauseum. We should be proud of Sam Tomkins ... he is quite simply the best we have produced in a clutch of rich talent. Long may he prosper and stay injury free. I have become a Sam Tomkins fan after first seeing him bunny-hopping around and wanting someone to smash him. I was wrong about him ... the guy is a diamond.

I don't understand these petty attitudes in this country. Sam Tomkins is a brilliant talent and the whole of the rugby league community should be behind him regardless of who he plays for.

Quote ="rupert bear"Why? If he was that good he would go to the NRL to prove himself instead of staying in the ">SL.'" TBF He's 22 and his new deal only precludes him from talking to either NRL or RU Clubs for 3 years - Plenty of time for him to have a crack at the NRL.

i for 1 dont want to lose more talent to nrl the aussie game is about strong defence and not always about attacking flare which is why i prefer the sl but its my opinion, i would never boo a player in an england shirt i rate him as the best talent weve produced for awhile so get behind the lad

I am glad that Tomkins is wearing an England shirt, great skill, great balance and for a small lad takes some hits.

Quote ="rupert bear"Why? If he was that good he would go to the NRL to prove himself instead of staying in the ">SL.'" What a stupid attitude!! We should be wanting to retain our best talent here to raise the standard of our own league structure. That was how in golf the European tour overtook the US tour.

Sam's a class act and will get even better over the next few years. How people can slag him off but say nothing about someone like Isaac Luke who deliberately tried to maim an opponent last week is beyond me.He is the sort of player who should be copping the flak. If we can keep our discipline and Sinfields kicking game is on top form then we will win on Saturday night.I thought in the first game they only threatened us when we gave them field position because of sloppy penalties.I cant remember many England v Aus games where we bust there line so many times. Come on England!!
