Why does this Chris Hill bloke still get a shirt at international level? Liam Watts would've been a far better pick.

Never mind everyone, at least we are in the WC final @ KAC.

He is naive beyond belief in the tackle though. Bad play the ball and losing it. Both were questionable decisions but he should never put himself in that position.

Watts would have been a better choice than all props today no need to single out hill...

I think we missed a bit of spark in the pack. Thompson May have given us that but him going off after 15 mins prevented it, being a man down for the rest of the game certainly didn’t help. Tom Burgess should run his weight more.

I agree about Hill, he’s a good prop but a plodder imo. Good work rate but we need a bit more at international level.

Hodgson really annoys me, he is clearly a very good player but tries to do too much when he should be feeding his halves to let them do their job.

The GB team reminded me of Wigan this year, desperate for a bit of go forward and dominated in the pack preventing the backs from showing what they can do.

As great a coach as he is (or has been) I’m beginning to think Bennett has had his day.

Is Josh Hodgson RL’s version of John Barnes?
He looks like a world-beater at club level, but as soon as he pulls on an international shirt he’s just poor. Very, very poor.

Beaten by a team who were simply bigger, stronger and faster.
That Tonga pack is fantastic. Infact, if you were to make a combined team from today's squads, I dont think there's be many of the GB lads get a game.

Fullback - Tonga
Wingers - Tonga
Centres - Tonga
Halves - probably GB, but they're all garbage
Middle forwards - Tonga, maybe 2 GB on bench
Edge forwards - 50/50 split

We have lost our identity ,we don't appear to have a style of play now at international level.

Coupled with strange squad selections todays result isn't a shock.

Our pack was dominated from start to finish.Tui looked world class playing behind that pack.He organised all Tonga's plays.G.B had 3 different players trying to organise when there should have been only one.Poor display Hill,Hardaker,Hall and Coote need replacing against New Zealand.

Ryan Hall cannot be replaced. He is signed for the all powerful Sydney Roosters again in 2020, under Super Coach Trent Robinson, and therefore has the NRL Champions' seal of approval.

I must say though that I am looking forward to the clash between Ryan Hall and Thomas Makinson in the WCC this coming February.

Agreed. For me, I would have Shaun Wane as coach. I couldn't believe it when he left Wigan. I've just never liked Bennett. That's my opinion anyway.
