Radley contracted to end of 2027, will be 29 by then.

Another good try for Samoa this time.

When I posted the team for this I was going to add does anyone care or even going to watch this. Well I have to admit this as been a really good watch, some good plays some good try’s. Williams is bossing it.

Of course Lewis comes on and gets a try. Been a good game to watch. Little bit of sloppiness in defence that was not punished but attacking wise England have been good.

Enjoyed that bit of handbags at the end and surprisingly dealt with well by Liam Moore.

Walker doesn’t deserve selection.
He hasn’t been the best English 9 and wasn’t even Wire’s best 9.
Clark is better than him imo.
Walker has Clark on age.

However Wane no longer has a honeymoon period. He couldn’t afford another loss while building a team for a future WC. He is on egg shells.
A defeat in the mini test would see him sacked.

Another thing is that Walker offers little more than England had in that team with the inclusion of Clark and Smith.

Give your head a wobble Walker was super leagues best no 9 last season, ill admit that injuries to Ipape, Brad ONeil made it easier to claim that title, Mellor and Parcell had some good form at season end but weren't consistently as good as Danny.

Clark did look better yesterday behind a pack that wasn't as useless as Saints and with some better game tactics, I di hope Briers doesn't bring it to Saints but that was a howler of an intercept.

The only reason Walker didn't get a game was to include the current MOS, I thought that Wane did well in keeping the right half back pairing.

I can understand what you are saying in that a major advantage if Walkers game is he has a kicking game (most 40/20s in SL last season) and that having Smith means it is superfluous, but surely having that threat in multiple places is an advantage. Its like saying we don't need Ashton to run fast because Dufty can.

I was envious of Smiths kicking yesterday and lost count if the times he hit grass, and the distance.he made.

Danny Walker definitely better than Clark currently, will he be better than peak Clark not sure, would I have liked to keep them both yes but still the right decision to keep Walker over Clark, and I'll enjoy Walkers performances until he invariably moves to the NRL.

That dream team that omitted Bevan French. I see your point.

True. A moment of weakness.

Utter disrespect at Leeds to Samoa (haka)

I’m embarrassed.

Laying on by Samoa is shocking.

Nice try for Williams.

Whilst the defenders deffo did go for nsemba, remember when they made a big thing about obstructions/passes behind a runner, also depended on the receiver getting the ball outside the runner? Williams didn't there. Another thing that was a big thing for a while and forgotten about

And a try for Ashton

Lovely pass from smith for that try

That was a really good try from Farnworth, would love to see him in Super League.

Farnworth is pure box office. What a centre

can we swap Tai for Farnsworth and a million pounds

i’m not sure Tai is worth a million pounds more than Farnworth.
