| Not really and English player, but an ESL player on loan.
Scott Dureau just kicked a field goal to get Newtown home 31-30 over Penrith in the NSW cup.
First placed Penrith haven't lost in nearly 3 months, and 10th placed Newtown were down 30-6 after 50 minutes. "The Mole" has said on twitter that he just watched Newtown's best win in 30 years.

| Man of match, enough said.
24 runs 190 metres
33 tackles
2 tries
Geez he is going to be so bored in union!
Super 15 top tackler avg less 17 tackles a game
Avg runs 9
Avg tries less than one
I suspect the English union league stats are no better. Money for old rope for Sam. From best Rugby (sic) comp in the world to the plodders code.

| Tomkins has been one of the better warrior players i can't believe they have found a way to loose this. the refs haven't helped with the early held calls.

Johnson did not have his best game. But Townsend's continual 5th tackle kicking to the invulnerable Lachlan Maranta was so dumb it surely is grounds for sacking.
Sam Tomkins was one of the best players for the Warriors. He had some blemishes: he was badly beaten by Ben Hunt, but so were others; also he eventually tackled Dale Copley but a second too late to stop his match winning try.
One the other hand Tomkins always looked dangerous with the ball and scored a very good opportunistic try in the first half. He is now a key player, along with Johnson, Matulino, and Hurrell (whose injury may well have cost the Warriors the game)

He'll be doing half the work for more money, be daft not to. On the downside he is leaving behind life in one of the best cities in the world, big crowds, decent stadiums, celebrity status and partying with Hollywood stars. Not to mention the athletic challenge of playing in the worlds top rugby competition.

Bless.......he'll be an hour from London which craps all over Sydney, if he plays for England he'll be watched by more people in the 5 games in spring than see him all year in the NRL to a TV audience of 40,000,000 in England alone and he will become an RFU marketing asset so will be out and about with the glitterati.........oh, he'll also see what a genuine World Cup looks like where the Italians actually come from Italy, the Irish from Ireland etc..........

BBC claim 4.5 million average across all 15 6 Nations games.......I suspect that if I'd posted 67.5 million you'd have given yourself a hernia.....and I never claimed 40 million at the same time.
As for being funny.......Wales v someone last year in a friendly getting a bigger tv audience than the RLWC semi final on the bbc was quite humorous if that sort of thing tickles you......god knows why it would though?

That is your opinion.
Many would disagree.
