FORMER champion Great Britain rugby league star Ellery Hanley admits he can't envisage England surpassing Australia on the international stage in his lifetime.

Maybe with more English players going to the NRL this will change.
Need some backs though, especially Half's and 5/8s even if they have to work their way into grade.

We need less teams in the league as a matter of urgency.

Because as Daniel Anderson pointed out when mocking the mess SL has become since he left, there isn't the player pool to support 14 teams. In England the players playing the game at junior level are generally terrible athletes. They are the runts of society, the sons of council house dwellers. So the 'average' SL young player is a sparrow legged runt with average ability. Each club probably produces 3 or 4 reasonable players every 5 years.

They should cut SL to 10 teams.

There's nothing wrong, they just have a better starting position in culture with the Aussie public. We're going in the right direction, trust me. I think we'll win something before 2020, i'm sure of it.

We're going nowhere as long as the Wood is running the RFL. If he put half as much energy into his job as he does justifying himself every 5 minutes we might have something to show.

I don't tihnkwe're too far behind. In the 4N we comfortably beat NZ and we gave OZ real scare at Wembley and probably comfortably beaten in the final.

But lets look at the facts, we had a resonably young squad whereas the Aussie have had their back bone playing together for 6+ years. Thats not going to last forever that back bone will eventually split up. We have some superb young players coming through the system, Lomax, Clark, Bateman, Currie. We are having some exceptionally talented youngsters coming through the system who i believe can match it with Australia
