and bring back the shoulder charge.

This tour has been a national disgrace!

Bennett cannot be given a new contract, he has to go immediately.

The job surely has to be Shaun Wane’s? He’s by the far best man for the job. Say what you want about him but players who play for him would run through a brick wall for him.

I’m not even sure Bennett would inspire me to run through tissue. And his tactics are boring and out of date. There were three consecutive sets on the Kiwi line last week and the two half backs didn’t get their hands on the ball until the final play of each set. That’s a sackable offence in itself.

And hopefully Wane would have more about him than to pick the most boring #9 I think I’ve ever seen in Hodgson. He’s the most one dimensional player around at the moment. He does nothing but pass from dummy half. He’s got nothing else about him.

Oh by the way; very well done to Joe Philbin who pretty much comes home as one of the only players who can hold his head highs from this squad and say he played well.

(Elliot Whitehead too)

I remember one of the interviews Bennet did when he first took over the job. He was asked whether England could win the world cup. This was not an unreasonable question considering how well England had performed against New Zealand in recent matches and the fact that they did go on to get to the World Cup final under Bennet’s tenure.

But his response to the question was to laugh and say something along the lines of ‘Well, I don’t know about that.’ I never liked him after that, surely we need a coach who has a passion for the team and believes in them. Not somebody who thinks we’re laughable behind Australia.

This. Clark is so much better it's not even funny

I was thinking about squad selection, and I have to admit that I'd have picked all the forwards that were in the squad. (Cooper was unlucky to miss out).

There were too many halves, not enough centres and wings.

And then there was the game plan..... That's the only reason I can see there was such inept performances - particularly by the halves.
And clearly the wheels came off when Austin plays on the wing for the last game when they flew out a specialist wing. That suggests all was not well in the camp - maybe friction between Sinfield and Bennett??

Can't really see Bennett getting a new contract.
