England will win 3 games - and I include the final in that.
Looking at the schedule I think;
Round 1 - England lose to NZ, Aus beat PNG
Round 2 - England beat Aus, NZ beat PNG
Round 3 - England beat PNG, NZ beat Aus
Eng vs NZ final, with Eng winning.
Aus are seriously weakened by their missing players - their forwards aren't as good as the other packs, and whilst the backs are better than the other two I don't think they are good enough to make up the deficiencies in the forwards. In previous years the likes of Lockyer/Inglis/Falou/Thurston have managed to carve open any defence and get the team on the front foot. The forwards haven't and wont in 2010.
NZ have the strongest squad, and I expect them to go unbeaten until the final.

But you would have said that even if we had beaten the Kiwis by 20 points. |

You take your Brownie out,
You put your Bennett in,
And you make it to the 8,
You do the Oki Chokie,

[quote="gutterfax":2v2cei1t]I like Bazza. He chose the name of a cross dressing Austalian institutions other persona.....and is your typical Aussie w@nker living in London whilst he tries to get some culture by visiting Prague to get pi55ed on Cheap Star, getting a fondle from a dodgy hooker in amsterdam and eating a snail for a bet when in paris. All of these things will make him a cultural icon when his visa runs out and he is sent the way of his great grandparents....alas, not in chains this time.[/quote:2v2cei1t]

If England had beaten the kiwis by 20 points I would have asked if England would win any games in the 2010 4 nations?

You would have said no. You would have said no if we'd won the lot. You're contributions are that useful to discussion when it comes to England RL. |

Don't worry about avoiding temptation.
As you grow older, it will avoid you!

| Quote: Barry_McKenzie "I would really like to see England do well in a tournament... I'm not joking.
In the short time I've lived in the UK I have met some very friendly RL supporters here.... most noticably when I went to Wigan.
I feel sorry for your average British RL supporter... they havent had anything to celebrate in many many years. They are well overdue winning something.
But realistically... I cant see it happening.
Englands best chance of winning something will be a tournament that is held in England.'"
Well we have now.
Perhaps having shown you how to play winning cricket (and Rugby Union) we can now turn our attention to Rugby League! |
