right on all counts, there is no way England can defend that well for the full game like the Kiwi's

high intensity and a few flashes of skill which is nothing England can't match, as long as we can defend as a team. Peacock, Ellis and Morley can cope with both sides. Bit concerned about Westwood though, he's not international class. And our hookers are over-rated.

Right.... fair enough then

We could spring one hell of a suprise but to do that Peacock, Morley, Graham, Burgess and Ellis will have to get their heads together and promise each other they'll all have the games of their lives.

If those 5 really fire together and get Sinfield and the 2 halfs some room to move in you never know nut it's the longest of long shots with the outside backs we have in comparison to theirs.

Eastmond must start in place of Shenton for me.

Basically fcked then.

I'm sorry if sounds pessimistic but any English fan who thinks were gonna win must have had their head baptised in the pacific ocean.

Australia will steam-roll us, they play a totally different ball game, which is far superior and on last nights showing, they can scarily get better.

Predictable reply from a Hull Fc fan. I apoligise for not putting Shenton as an example, but yes your right, there's no-one that can deal with the threat of Inglis.

NZ were awesome, and kept Hayne quiet for most of the night. We just can't keep that work rate up for the full 80.

England have got to play as if the next game is their final... you never know, we have beaten them in a game before and not too long ago. If we win, then they're out and we won't have to play them in the final (assuming we don't really cock up and let our 2nd string beat the Kiwis the week after).

So, just one game guys... come on the game of your lives!!!

Also, sod Smith giving them the pre-match talk... play the DVD of Pacino's final talk to the players in "Any Given Sunday" (I think that's the title, I saw it a long time ago).

unsurprisingly...i think we'll do it....

Found it on utube...

Not quite as good as I remember it but

Ahh i was talking about that with a mate the other day funnily enough and i couldnt remember the film or what the speech was called.
Sweet, good find

Lets be honest the Aussie will be ting themselves at the prospect of playing against Morley in his own country. Mind you Gaz Ellis has taught Australians a thing or two about rugby league as well since he’s been over they. Just ask his West Tigers team mate Benji Marshall

England will not win - and I will happily donate that to anyone who wishes to use it in their sig
