Maguire gets the very best out of the Burgess brothers - they play a style that suits them. England don't have the team to do that. As a result they both looked very ordinary to me. They will have to up their game significantly if they are to have the impact we need them to have to win on Saturday.
Under estimate Australia at your peril, this is still a team of high quality players that if they gel will cause England some issues.

The Burgess twins look good in the Souths pack because that pack is better than the England pack. Not so much the style as the individuals in it.
I think all the team will have to up their game and I don’t think anyone is under-estimating the Aussies.
They’ll be up for this game as losing would be an embarrassment.
