Brown should have been subbed at half time, just ran over him all night, and hasn't done anything but ship the ball on in attack.

I don't think I have ever seen anyone drop the ball 3 times on consecutive carries, take a bow Tom Burgess.

Our long kicking game was excellent, good performance defensively, just hopeless whenever we got near Australia line.

Currie needs to work on his defence, way too much shirt grabbing.

Yes, we could have probably should have won, yes Bateman is not a cenyte and Brown isn't internatioal class but goodness that was epic, high tension sporting drama.

If that was the England RU team or the England football team the sunday newspapers would already be preparing the HEROES banners for the front pages.

In terma of an 80 minute RL game, I'm gutted but in terms of a providing entertainment and nail biting theatre to the neutrals, that was a priceless spectacle.

Btw, the Chris Hill imposter has gone, the real one is back.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Re: England v Australia - Final : Sat Dec 02, 2017 12:06 pm  
Great game, exciting (nail biting) until the end. We should have earnt a lot of respect from the aussies in that 80 minutes, IMO origin standard.

I feel we lost it in the halves not having patience, 3 times we had sets of 6 starting deep in their half and every time we put a hopeful kick through on 2nd tackle, thats just not good enough, we should have completed and tested for a repeat set. We should have had 15 chances for someone to find the elusive gap and 3 kick chances to test for a try or repeat set, instead we had 3 attempts at a gap and 3 hopeful kicks. The fourth similar chance we had the ball was dropped on the first, can't fault the effort, the aussies looked shot on 60 mins but I feel a few daft plays cost us there.

Hall, Watkins, mcgilvary, whitehead and Hill in particular were immense I thought every forward was brilliant today, in fact everyone. Bateman looked like Hughes for us last season, everytime he got the ball you knew the move was over but he has acquitted himself well all world cup it's not his fault he isn't a centre. Great effort from the boys, very proud of their efforts this morning, the reality is the aussies are still a score better than us.

So disappointed in the result, I don't know how people thought that it would be an Australian walk over by 20/30 Australia are marginally better than us at present and the last few score lines demonstrates that.


Hopefully we can continue to improve and next time get the win.

Aussies could have weakened sooner if Gale had of stuck to WB system of complete every 6/7 plays. He was kicking on 3/4 plays.
