| Slightly stunned by any one that wouldn't want bennet to stay on
That's about as close as we have being to beating them in as long as I can remember, we were a couple of % away from beating them today
A couple of errors at crucial times (tom burgess)
Bateman not being able to pass a ball (his defence and effort were outstanding though) so it's cruel to point a finger at him
Losing S O'L, he could have being the difference today
Regardless of the Bateman, lomax and brown selection issue, he worked with what he had and nearly got us there
Perhaps with more time he will
I hope he stays on

No. There's talk of us going around the Pacific Islands instead. Either way expect us to be going down south that year.

| and talks as though his era were much better against the Aussies - bar the odd result, they weren't really, and they were on a much more level playing field with the Aussies than today's players.
disagree somewhat. 1982 we were blown away out classed in every department, the young lions team of 84 including Schofield were also well beaten but were starting to claw the gap back, 86 we were beaten by they best international term ever assemble, we played well in the first test and played some cracking rugby, we were well beat in the second test and robbed blind in the 3rd. 88 injury hit squad was competitive in every game and famous win in the 3rd. 1990, 1992 (including world cup final) through to 94, all those serious were were not only competitive but we could and should have won one if not all, 1990 was the won we really lost rather than Australia won. Schofield was at the helm for all those serious. we also had Andy Gregory, Shaun Edwards, all time greats, plus pretty good world class halves around like Derek Fox, David Hulme, and Darryl Powell. we really have struggled to produce not more that 5-6 really and i mean really good halves in 20 years of super league. we have had players who look the part but he don't kick on not at international level.

apologies I may have got things slightly wrong, however there is going to be a southern hemisphere GB tour in 2019 ( unconfirmed who we are playing as of now) which could include tests against Australia. And the Kangaroos are definitely playing at least three tests against GB and one against France when they come over in 2020 as stated below -

Nope.
As I read it it says:
"Traditionalists will welcome the return of the Lions, although the national team will continue as England for the World Cups and incoming tours."
Hence as the Aussies are coming to Europe in 2020 (i.e. an incoming tour) they'll be playing against England not GB.
