| If Australia let that team score, they should consider it a defeat. Embarrassing back line, playing on the world stage. Shocker.

| at the end of the day we all know macnamara has a poor knowledge of players hes proved that by naming cudjoe infront of gleeson or even lee smith people write of our chances far too early like the n.z game we managed to get in the game and looked more threatening in the 2nd half if we start fast out the block and the players out ther wear the shirt with pride and knock the aussies around abit i cant see why we can get a win robinson looked lethal every time he got the ball last week we need to smash there half backs early on make them not want to know and play whats in front of you and not set plays..... i honestly think i should be the next england coach

The Aussies will blame it on injuries.

| McBanana, he does n't have a clue.
Cudjoe and Atkins in centre's will get annihilated, if he's not happy with Brown at SO then he'd be a better bet at centre.
can't see O'Loughlin being a major strike force and will be missed in pack.

The last time we played Australia in Melbourne (200icon_cool.gif, we had a back three of Wellens, Gardner and Calderwood... this time round we have Tomkins, Briscoe and Goulding
The 2010 back three are so much better than 2008 it is untrue – Wellens is a good player who I have always liked but Tomkins is a much better attacking option in international League while the wingers are much stronger and far better defenders than 2008
The centres are probably weaker, but I don’t remember Senior and Gleeson tearing Australia to pieces over the years – there is no denying Cudjoe is a talented player who could shine in international rugby
It is fashionable to criticise the English backs as ‘worst ever’ but when you look at the facts it is not so obvious
This is an English backline with an average age of 22 so do we expect them to be world beaters today? For me, there is some real talent there (particularly Tomkins, Briscoe and Cudjoe)

| Agree with you Dunbar, a Leigh fan on our forum's been going on about 'the worst England team in 15 years'. No it isn't, it's the youngest team in 15 years and 13 years ago, Paul Atcheson was the GB full back.

Indeed and let's not forget Richard Horne on the wing in 2003! Very good player Horne but never a winger in a million years

So you are comfortable with their back row running at our centres than our own back row. You can't hide people at this level. They either tackle or they don't.

| let's be honest,this isn't the greatest aussie team to represent their country - probably the best chance of an england victory (or at least prevent an embarassing demolition job) for a few years ? England HAVE to keep their discipline to have any chance,especially with the aussie ref - Good luck lads !

| key will be to be within 6 at HT. If we let them get more than two scores in front it'll be all over.

| Look at the end of the day it's 13 vs 13 on a RL pitch with subs and anything can happen, even though we go into this game as massive underdogs we can still win.
The Aussies aren't anywhere near as good as they used to be and add that to the injuries they already have it will by no means be a walkover imo.
