The GB team for today has Williams into the 17 with Clark and Jones omitted. Starting team has Hill and Burgess as props with Thompson on the bench. Backs 1-7 same as last week.

Record of GB against PNG is 7 out of 8 wins and I am going for a comfortable win No 8.

In a bit of trivia Wayne Bennett's brother Bob coached PNG for 10 years back in the mid-90's and was the first to get them to a World Cup quarter final in 2000. PNG were at this stage again in 2017 when well beaten by England.

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround." An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg



Laughable Daz Clark has been left out.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg



Nasty knock for FGB, all about taking the sting out of the Kumuls, easier said than done though!

As a Rovers fan I'm contractually obliged to be a Hodgson fan but dying like that on the last when it's crying out for a dab through the line is horrible.

Just what GB deserve after hasting negatively drilling the ball into touch.

Yeah, why do that. Even if the team is gassed and you're trying to play out the half, give it some air because that will keep the clock running.

Poor refereeing. Austin’s no try should have gone to video ref.

Also he called no try that denied PNG a possible try. No definitive camera angle to prove on the line.

GB just haven't come out of the changing room, one thing that's imperative when playing the Kumuls is to match their physicality.

And he was still dozing for the second try.

PNG will take a lot of confidence from this.
Pity they can't take their crowd and ground with them to the WC.

Yes there was. You can’t just make stuff up because it suits your agenda.

Ref referred it as no try. Video ref needed to be sure beyond doubt that it was a try. Right decision for me and at the moment, it's looking rather academic.
