| The first 2 tries Tonga scored were awful from us, especially the 2nd one.

Because he can't learn that he needs to tackle around the legs, still falling short IMHO but too late now to change anything.

| Play as well defensively as the 1st 70 mins and we're in with a chance.
Need to do something attacking wise. In 80 minutes only really created 3 chances. Clinical yes, enough to beat the Aussies no.

He went to video ref for everything except for a possible try in the last second of the WC semi! The only reason I can see is that they wanted England in final. To me a clear try.

Your country arent good enough to beat Tonga, they should feel terribly cheated

| He definitely should have gone, if just to make sure. He did for Bateman's try and that was clearly a try.

Not a clear try at all, 50/50 maybe, but not a clear try. Should have gone upstairs though. If it had have done it would have gone up as no try and no 100% evidence to overturn, but definitely should have been looked at.

As Wilkin said - would be deemed stripped everytime in Super League. Whitehead clearly targeted the ball as he had no chance of tackling him. Whatever your view the point is he did not go to the video ref for the most important moment of the WC so far. The question that has to be asked is - why? What is the point of using video if it is not to enhance the integrity of the game? As I said - cheated.

| I think the ref has blown for the knock on before Fifita regathered and went over otherwise he may have gone to the screen.
That was a really dominant performance from us for 70 mins then we switched off. We’ll have to step up another level next week to be in with a chance.
