England won the series 2-0 with an 18-6 win at Leeds. a thoroughly dominant display they totally outplayed Australia.

Fantastic effort. From the bits I saw the young Leeds forwards were terrific. Also how great is it to see an English half who can tackle like a forward in young Harry Smith |

England really bullied them over the 2 games, and were excellent. Australia were really disappointing, it's the worst back line I've seen any Australian team bring over at any level.

Good game. Smith, Smithies, Holroyd, Newman all good, as was the fullback - the English one - whose name I don't recall,

Great! I’m already looking forward to watching them turn out for SL sides in a few years! |

Historically we have always done well against them. Difference is most of their team will go on to do really well in NRL whilst the majority of ours will end up in the championship or on a building site

Unfortunately I agree with you - not just a RL thing as its common in many other sports. Our inability to turn boys into men is shocking. |

Well that's not true really.
Historically they have been undefeated. It was years before anyone got a win and NZ was first.
Some get to NRL but not many.
However, I agree we need to make sure ours do. Historically we don't develop our players like they do. |

i agree, its also seen in tennis, athletics and football, probably others too. don't know why, coaching? motivation? rewards? too many cheap fix imports? |

i heard that the aussie team is not necessarily the cream of their crop, as some others are tied tightly to clubs and are not picked for these tours. not sure how true that is. some of our aussie based friends might know more |
