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.

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.

Please dont re-open the McD nonsense again for Gods sake.

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

I can see benefits of Wane and he is available but my preferred option would be Powell. Worked wonders at CAS with little to no resource, would like to see what he can do with a bigger and in theory better player pool.

Will play a SL style and the players would understand what they are doing. It might not get us a world cup but we would be back playing well and being competitive.

Don't see him as an international coach tbh. He wouldn't have the time with the players that he does at Cas and so much of their good play depends on planned moves that have been drilled and drilled and drilled into their players. Mind you, the play in SL is so formatted the same could be said of almost any coach based here. Ian Watson shows at least some capacity to think outside the box when circumstances demand, I'd be tempted to give him a go.

Bennett, Sinfield & Peacock should all be relieved of they duties by the RFL

Watson has had one good season so I'd want to see how he handles this coming season and all the changes at Salford. If he gets them in the playoffs again I'd be impressed and agree he would be worth a shot.

We need someone a bit more proven though. Fair point on the time a GB coach gets with players but that's more an issue to solve than accept for me. A UK based coach should find it easier to get time with the UK based players.

I agree

Going to need to get things going next years series is important. There are large stadiums to fill

What role did peacock have in selection and tactics?

Probably none and Sinfield only flew over last week to join the tour but hey lets not blame the players eh?

Peacock will have been booking hotels, buses, food and sorting kits out.

Surely all that will have been arranged a long time ago Seth.

Lets also remember that of the most highly regarded young English coaches were also involved in the set up.
The squad selection was unbalanced, which was a huge mistake, but the the players were terrible, and should also take responsibility for their own performance.
