This is shocking. Hastings been dreadful and less said about Hastings on the wing the better.
Bennett needs to go and Sinfield should resign

It's a close call for stinking the joint out between GB on the pitch and the jibberish spouted by Brian Noble, boy oh boy, wowwee,
Changed my mind, GB truly woeful.

PNG have rushed up around the ruck all night, any half decent team should be able to get on the out side of that, not keep bashing it up early in the set.

A Lions team showing almost zero enthusiasm or passion, pride is a disgrace. This mob is a disgrace to the shirt
Tom Burgess has done well.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg |

The whole tour has been a farce. Seems to me the inclusion of the heritage players hasn’t worked. It’s time for change, Shaun Wane should be the GB and England coach.

On the other hand, absolute hats off to PNG. Just shows what enthusiasm, identity and coupling solid basics with off the cuff rugby in the right areas can do.
Fluck of Bennett and don't come back.

A line needs drawing and start again from scratch. Tour has been farcical.
A few players need moving on now and certainly a new coach.
I like Hodgson in a Canberra shirt but for England/GB he just stifles everything.

Lions Whitewashed As PNG Compound Tour Misery
The Great Britain Lions were looking to restore a modicum of pride at the end of a disastrous tour as they travellled to the rugby league cauldron of Port Moresby to take on a determined Papua New Guinea side who were intent on sending the Lions home on the back of a four game whitewash.
Papua New Guinea are currently ranked as the tenth best in the world, behind Scotland and Lebanon, this match was scheduled to be a gentle wind down and bridge building exercise at the end of the tour. The Kumuls would have different ideas, wanting to compound the Lions misery in front of a sell out, fervent, home crowd.
Despite a late afternoon kick-off the temperatures were still high and the Lions would have to cope with high humidity and the noisiest of partisan stadiums.

It’s been a joke, what a farce, Wayne Bennett should hang his head in shame. There was no balance in the squad, players now playing out of position. It’s clear Bennet does not rate super league, if your an Aussie playing in SL with a UK heritage your in the team, plus too many English players who are in OZ simply walk into the team, Bennet has become a dinosaur, blown away, we had no answer to PNG in the second half. Bennet surely has to walk away from this after this tour.

Walk away!!
GB management should publically kick his ass out and be scathing about his approach and the state we are left in. |

Bennett has to go now when he came in as England coach he took is in a forward direction but now we've gone 2 or 3 steps backwards with his coaching and team selection, i suspect GB will disband again now and Eng, Sco, Wal, and Ire will focus on there own goals heading into 2021 world cup and the future, think this tour proves that the home nations and SL need a international break in there calendar to keep up with the rest of international teams as they are on the up and we do not want to drop down the pecking order any further a mid season test is key imo for England rugby League. I hope Bennett does go and hopefully someone like Shaun Wane will take over the national team building up to world cup we need to get all the best talent in super league and nrl in there natural positions and playing like a team again.
Hardaker/S. Tomkins/ Walker
Makinson
Gildart
Percival
Handley
Lomax
Williams
T.Burgess
Clark
Thompson
Bateman
Whitehead
Sutton/ Ward (if he can stay fit)
Subs
Roby
Graham
G.Burgess
Watts/ Walmsley
Players like Watkins, Hall, Mcgillvary, Widdop, Hill, Hodgson need to prove fitness and form at club level before being considered again imo they have served there country well in past but we need new young blood in squad whist keeping some experience in there.

Just going to put this out there but Brian McD should be considered for GB too. He has the best track record of any British coach getting teams up for big games.
I’m not sure changing Wayne will change our fortunes because I don’t think our player pool is strong enough, but I can’t see how he survives this tour now.
Also I don’t and never have really agreed with getting your “best 13” on the pitch almost regardless of position. Specialist skills are vital as it knowing instinctively what your role is at this level. GB lacked in many areas - too slow, not enough creativity, not enough punch.

After this showing they will struggle to sell tickets if Bennett stays.
He will get binned off for this reason if no other.
