They ARE the two from the Muppet Show

Certainly a pair of muppets

Funny bit was when Ferres tried to offload after a good break and it went wrong - Phil Clarke had a go saying we can't afford that against the Aussies.

Then a few minutes later Sam Tomkins does the same, and Steve and co have a go saying he can't do that against the Aussies hey Phil and Clarke..................silence

Yeah and Clarke was praising Hill's offload in the first that only went to hand by sheer luck

The sky team ruin the games for me sometimes

But to be positive

The England Exiles game is a fantastic concept, just needs a touch more development (add in the Celtic and French players). To say the players aren't interested is just mad, look at them when they score, fantastic. What they need is also to get more time together in a training camp

Cudjoe has to have his name on the English right centre spot now, MoM performance in an England game - what more can he do?

Crabtree we know what he can do, we know he can do it v the Aussies. MacNamara has to play him

Ferres, better than all the other England back row last night IMO. But come the World Cup it will be the Burgess brothers all the way, sadly for Bret.

Other than our own players:
Our back 3 were good, Tomkins put some great defence in to match his attack
Our front row were great as we knew they would
Myler ok, great support not much else
Sinfield superb at 9 too slow at 6

Our back row. Poor
Chase. Poor when he wasn't anonymous
Hardacre. Not a centre

the amount of times leeds got mentioned during lastnights game!!!


and banging on about super league, no wonder the international game doesnt get the recognition

well done england.

got the win and many thought they wouldnt.

cudjoe just did what we know he does week in week out for the giants, smashed hodgson in the lead upto roby try and showed him a massive dummy for his try

chase was poor lastnight, myler a mixed bag.

cudjoe MOM for me and tomkins played well too.

thought sinfield would be too slow for hooker but he showed enough speed to go through a gap and setup a try for tomkins!

good first half then abit disjointed in the 2nd, but due to the shuffling, macnamara needs to get his first choice half backs and stick too them!!! sinfield and myler? or will it be sinfield and widdop, we shall see but needs sorting
