Not that I'm a big fan of his but I think mr senior on his twitter account twitter.com/#!/KeithSenior4 Exiles more dangerous in attack and defence, been together a week You work it out Now I know he's probably a bit biased after playing under the exiles coach but the fact that they've never played together and turned out to be pretty well organised as opposed to England, the majority of the players have been on tours together looked pretty clueless............

Macnamara needs help from a coach that knows how to lift players and knows how to strategise.

If Macca got the exiles game under way then top marks to him. He just needs to learn how to coach now.

Just watched it this morning, one thing that is apparant is it was a far better test than hammering France. It highlights problems England have more too.

Wish i'd gone to that rather than twenty20.

Anyone else notice the RLFANS sponsorship on the Exiles' sleeves?

I think it would be proactive of the RFL to announce shortly that next years game will be played at the new Salford Stadium.I would also like the RFL to ensure that every Super League Club provides Match Day coach transport for supporters wishing to travel,at cost price i.e. no excuses for anybody not being able to attend.If supporters don't take up the option so be it,but Clubs should offer the oppourtunity.

or saints new ground?

I'd like it to be at Saints new ground, gives everyone a chance to go and see it.

On the game, I think England would have been far more dangerous in attack with Brough and Roby playing.

not sure who played no6, but as a combimation it would have been better with brown at six as he plays with brough every week

Jeez

I don't really mind whether its at Saints new ground or Salfords,although I have a slight preference for Salford - more central - I just firmly believe that an early statement,with a specific date would help.Equally,I'm sure at least a couple of thousand could be added to the gate,by requiring all Clubs to run coaches to the game.If all Clubs ran just 2 coaches,that would add a thousand and people wouldn't have an excuse not to go - apart from MadDogg who would claim its kicking off 15 mins too late and will therefore be a disaster.

Firstly, it was great tight and interesting game...this is the level that England will compete in at the end of the season, so as far as whether the Exiles concept should continue again....without a doubt yes! I hope interest builds now and in the next few seasons it can develop into a 3 match series.

Secondly, it was a good thing that the Exiles won and that it was close....it means that future matches will attract a bigger audience and it gives the match credibility. Plus England will learn more in that close lose on the hooter than winning by 20 points.

I also think that (and sorry for any Wales fans) the Exiles would be a better inclusion in the Four Nations. England, Australia, New Zealand and the Exiles would create constant competitive games, plus it would give the Exiles more time and publicity for future events. Bar Tommy Leulaui none of the others play for Aus or NZ, so it could work.....although it would slow the progress of other nations international teams development.

England just need to focus on playing form players in their best positions, sick of seeing Sinfield shifted into No.6 over proper standoffs...not to mention, what the hell was Peacock in that team for? Crabtree is playing far better....Peacock isn't even fully match fit!! Plus Shenton had a poor game, plenty more better form centres in SL right now....some of the selections were just odd.

Still, overall...very good event from the marketing point all the way to the match itself....crowd were so quiet it drained some of the atmosphere..but overall defo worth keeping this match in the rugby league season going forward. Well done RFL.

Then he shouldn't be in the job in the first place.

It's at times like this that I regret the fact rlfans banned The Glorious League Freak.

He would have said stuff on here that everybody agrees with, and had them arguing with him that no actually England are a great side, and he's just a little Aussie brat.

Whenever British international rugby league comes up I always think of the RFL at it's worse in being clueless and amateurish. As many fans have said before not enough young players coming through, British coaches that stop at championship level.
We always end up with a team with players out of position and for some reason very rarely step up from the super league standard. Super league is the RFL's be all and end all, it's as though they are working under the constraints of SKY.
