| We only have ourselves to blame. Too many errors have gifted the Aussies easy tries and some dodgy decisions by the ref and video ref arent helpin matters.

I agree that our errors were the main problem BUT the officiating was worse than amateur. Blatant cheating from the Aussie officials which has left a very sour taste. They were there for the taking and I don't think we disgraced ourselves in that game at all. C H E A T I N G A U S S I E B A R S T E W A R D O F F I C I A L S !. No need when you have such a great team ! Kiwis to win the 4 Nations for me.

He might do as it will be good to see how he goes.

Got to agree. The Kiwi's look much better than the crims.
Now I know why they wanted Aussiee officials today!!!
After two blatant Aussie no tries actually being given Tasmin Archer then disallows lunt's effort on a ref's call, he then started giving us meaningless penalties in our own half after the 70 min mark, (when they are as useful as a chocolate teapot) to make the pen count look even.
Sheen's comments take the biscuit arguing that Archer was allowing US to lie on!

Ref's call isn't in the international rules so I don't know where Clark was coming from by using it. If neither Archer nor Clark could be sure of whether the try had been scored by Lunt then they have to give the benefit of the doubt to the attacking team. They didn't shy away from benefit of the doubt when Tate "scored". As soon as I saw ref's call I could have put my mortgage on what the decision would be.

| Just wondering who McBanana is going to try at Stand-Off next week?
Might as well put one of the props there can't do any worse than last 2 but I'd still have liked to see Brown at centre this week. Might move Tomkins there as he didn't come into the game at fullback.
It just shows what a difference having somebody like Lockyer moving the team around the park and kicking.

| Now the Lunt "try"
even he did not look confident, so not that much of a shock that the ref went for the play the ball, and actually it was probably the right decision.
Where was the error? Lunt being far to honest, instead of getting up throwing the ball in the air and making it look like he had scored as is the habit these days with 50/50 calls.
If he had scored, at the after match interview he would have said, "yep it was on the line" he didnt
the so called "knock on" and benefit of the doubt, sorry but have to stick with the vid ref here, did not think it looked like he touched it.
the forward pass was blatent and that was a shocker, but lets be honest you cant blame the ref for England dropping the ball all the time, you cant score if you cant keep hold of it

| Okay - so we made far too many mistakes in our own half, but pretty much every time we had the ball in their half we scored, and made the aussie defence look very ordinary.
They didn't have to work for any of their tries, half were given to them by our mistakes and the other half were given to them by the officials.
The frustration of englands handling errors was overshadowed by the absolute ineptituded of the officials.
How can the video ref give benefit of doubt to the aussies, then when there was genuine doubt about the Lunt try decide to give 'refs call' - if he had doubt about it why not giove the try like he did for the aussies ? How can he use two different versions of the same rules in the same game? Absolute joke.
Everyone could see the ball touched lewis' hand - except the video ref, everyone could see the ball was forward in their 2nd half try, even the knock on by goulding giving them field position for their 2nd try was a blatant ball steal with a 2 man tackle - it was an obvious tactic by the aussies in the early hit-ups of the tackle count up to attack the ball - sometimes legally but mostlly when 2 men were involved.
England can find too many ways to lose a game themselves - what they don't need is the officials matching their incompetence............
