there were plenty of Scotland fans around us, and i saw plenty of Scotland flags around the ground,which is a good thing surely?

I think the stick Bennett has received for his interviews is unfair. The dour, contemptuous demeanour is exactly the same as it has been his whole career. He isn't going to change now.

Amazing best coach of his generation and people always find something wrong.



He is a dry person to interview apparently he hates doing them. And over 20 odd years I would hate them as well.

I'd go back to the tri nations but play each other twice and have a second tier comp played at the same time and play double headers every time there isn't going to be a fourth team to match the big three ever

It could well go down to points difference to decide the finalists.

I hope you're right, that would mean beating the Aussies next week





After watching them dominate NZ (apart from the scoreboard) and England making hard work of beating Scotland, I'll take any kind of win next week.

You should get a decent price at Ladbrokes.

yep, me too.

Boring to watch though - International RL has actually become worse to watch than RU

Maybe but on current evidence he is taking us backwards.

Not a bad shout, two games against Aus and NZ would also mean you could put 2 fixtures in the heartlands and two in expansion areas and keep everyone happy.

How did they get 21,009 as the attendance, even if they counted the number twice (once for each match) surely there wasn't that many?

The capacity is 32,000 so 2/3rds full seems about right, and with it being a double header many people will have arrived/left midway through a game.
