| Going forward Sinfield was incredible today. Complete amateur in those final 90 seconds though.

Ah ha, using all our subs bench is what they would have expected us to do. The man is a tactical genius.

Potentially. We'll never know. I'm really proud of all the players today.

| Thought Seinfeld had a great 78 minutes and should have drilled the ball to touch. Saying that had Burgess not gone high we would have won. Can't decide if Seinfeld should have come out of the line or not at the end. If he makes the tackle he is a hero. Thought Hall and Cudjoe were the weak links in what was a superb performance for 78 minutes.

| Why would he get sacked? True we failed to make the final but that was more to do with the team taking it's eye off the ball before the game was won. There's a decent team and they didn't play badly in any game but need to work on their composure

| Well speaking as an Englishman I'm disappointed that we've failed once again after coming so close. In what was effectively a 3 team competition and as host nation the minimum requirement for success was a spot in the final. So you have to say McNamara and the players failed to perform in this World Cup.
Speaking as a RL fan who has tickets for the Final, I think the final will be a better match up with NZ v Aus. However NZ will have to improve a considerable amount from yesterday to get close to a pretty formidable looking Aussie team. Can't wait to see some of the best talent in RL on show at OT now, hopefully the final will cap off what's been a good WC tournament.

Yeah I just wanted to be the first to say it.
Don't necessarily agree with it

| The mindset of the players needs looking at. Where did that lack of composure needed to see the game out come from?
It's not like they aren't big game players. The high tackle aside why didn't try stick the defensive game plan they'd stuck to for 79 and a half minutes?
Personally thought the kick was poor on England's last set. Should have gone into touch but we should have still defended it from there.

Absolutely gutted,but what a great game.
I feel sorry for slammin Sam and Graham who both put up world class performances imo.
Yes,Sinfield should have kicked the ball in to touch,schoolboy stuff that and he did miss an easy conversion which would have meant the scores were level,but to lose on the last kick of the match is very hard to take.
Widdop did as well as he could do considering he wasn't 100% match fit.
I do think,though,that put Hock and Brough in that team and we win easily.
Brough up for player of year

Super League Man of Steel Danny Brough is on a three-man short-list for the 2013 international player-of-the-year award.

Great effort by the boys though.

Who said anything about being sacked? He is out of contract now and I can't see it being renewed, unless, of course as before, nobody else wants it.
Do you actually believe that England have improved under his tenure?

| Compared with our performance in the last world cup we have improved under McNamara!
Yesterdays game was great. There was hardly anything between the teams in the end. Not bad versus the World Champions and the most impressive team in the tournament so far.
In the end a couple of mistakes were the difference, but we were the better side for long periods.
