Um, did you even see the article I was talking about from the last page? You know, the one where TS says the Aussies back line is better than ours? Cheers for the new links though icon_lol.gif

Inglis and Hayne are also the 2 best players in the World IMO.

It's good to see a coach admitting England are miles behind rather than building up their chances like we usually do only to be slaughtered when it matters.

Having said that, Smith's comments also mean my decision as to whether to attend any of the games is now made up. I'll watch us lose by 40 on Sky rather than brave the rainy, sloppy conditions in person.

Quote: Hollywood Harrigan "Anyone else think, as its an Aussie paper 'n' all, that by saying this the Aussies may sit back and think the jobs already done?

I know we had a shocking World Cup last year but we were a bounce of the ball away from beating the Kiwi's in the Semi and look what they did in the final.

'"


Even if I wore my red white and blue tinted sunnies and watched this game for 2 years I think its fair to say that NZ were far better than England

Englands completions ...22 out of 39 ....20 errors ...3 line breaks ....32 missed tackles....

And all this on a good pitch

England were WOEFUL


I do wish they had made it to the final though.

Trouble is with NZ they are unpredictable. You never know what side is going to turn up. At least you can pretty much guarantee that England will be garbage on any day

I love this idea that England were a "Bounce of the ball" away from beating New Zealand in a semi final they honestly shouldn't have been involved in had the World Cup draw been fairer to better performing teams than England.

And....when you see what New Zealand did in the final...well...what could England have done.....if they had been able to....well....perform.....in any game...... icon_lol.gif


Of 10 teams England could only point to France as a worse performing team at the WC.

You ARE terrible. These are not mind games. You are so far off the pace that Australia and New Zealand have finals places wrapped up.

And your getting worse!

Thinking about this, I reckon England should play an established forward combination with a new look backline against France.

Even with alot of new Faces England should be confident. France have a decent frontline, maybe as good as England, but in the backs

Fox v Pelo (I rate Pelo as a better all-round player, Fox as the better winger)
Briscoe/Smith v Vaccari? (French options are Championship or LER level)
Shenton&Eastmond v Raguin&Baile (Centres v Backrow Forwards)
Myler&Tomkins v Bosc&? (Bosc is better than Myler but France's options at SO are very poor, while Tomkins is very good)
Briscoe v Greenshileds (pretty balanced)

So, other than at scrum-half, England is better than France in all positions, even if they play debutants. By all means change the combination v Oz or Nz, but give the kids a crack at it.
