I really hope England win, for both reasons of our success and their failure but I worry that too many people are calling them weak when in reality, apart from the back row players playing in the front row, we'd happily have them playing for us.
Inglis, Cronk, Smith in any team is capable of winning.

Totally agree with you PT. Australia and weak don't go together.
It's quite incredible that our "best" team can only just squeak past a second tier international team (they had to qualify for the 4N) and yet folk are claiming that the Aussies are weak.
Although, like most, I would love it if we smashed the Aussies, it is not going to happen.
IF all of the 50/50's go our way and we get some luck, we may just scrape a win BUT, even an understrength Aussie team is capable of comfortably beating us.
The Aussies are 7/2 on, with the bookies and we are getting 10 points start on the handicap coupon.
