Here is the difference between Australia and England......


Wow, the left front tire on my Ferrari needs a little more air in it.

Wow, my Penny Farthing has lost its front wheel, and is one fire.

you think 16-20 in international RL between the "top 3" is not a thrashing???????

fwiw i think our second row and props (inc 1 sub) are the best in the world...tis the other 12 that are the problem...

If our pack can get on top early and stay on top then we have stand half a chance. We must pressure them and work our balls off to make sure their backline has no space.

Keeping our cool will be vital though if the going gets tough, Ganson is refereeing and NZ got the Aussies in a battle and they lost their heads a little. If we can get them into a battle with Morley, Graham, Peacock and co but do it smartly then field position and chances may come about.

Gallen, Hayne and Watmough are all a bit tempremental and will give penalties away if niggled. Get into their faces, get our pack on top and see what happens.

England by 6. Sam Tomkins last minute try, going around Lockyer like he isn't even there then side-stepping Billy Slater making him look like a poor man's Paul Wellens to stroll in under the sticks infront of the South Stand.
