Quote: MR BROWN "mcguire and smith were rubbish, but to be fair the aussies targeted that side which put shenton and company under considerably less pressure. imo apart from crabtree, burgess and tomkins in the second half, they were all fairly average. the aussies took their foot off the gas in the second half, the game was already theirs. shenton should be one of the first choice centres. to be honest the english haven't got many decent centres when compared to the aussies and the kiwi's. we seem to lack the same desire and aggression and will to win, that they have.'"
However, despite this, Shenton made more tackles the the others and did not put a foot wrong all game.
