Not a clue how it works.

Thnx for the link bud.

Logan Tomkins is the right age but wasn't chosen.

England 38 Australia 30

Laithwaite had a good game.
George Burgess and Sam Powell were outstanding.

Rhys Evans sadly had a poor game by his standard.His wing partner Reece Lynne was terrible, considering he has had Superleague experience. He dropped the ball over the try line and then ran into touch whilst in the act of scoring with no one near him.

Englands scorers were Powell(2), King, Bridge, Sarsfield and Thompson with O'Brien kicking seven goals.
England should have been out of site by half time (Ganson crucified the Aussies).

Well done lads. Should I thank Ganson?

He binned two of the Aussie lads for backchat, but their discipline was very poor.

agrees reece lynne did have a very poor game. putting his foot into touch in the act of scoring. Although he did not drop the ball it was knocked out of his hand just as he was going to put it down. good defending caused the ball to come free.

Rogues, i am interested to know who won the battle of the forwards and who had the stronger bench players ?

george burgess was the best prop on the field by a country mile

Strewth.

England probably won the forward battle, but that may have been due to the sin binnings. I've never seen an Australian side so indisciplined.
The Aussie hooker and stand off both impressed plus the 16 who looks like a South Sea Islander.

Thanks for that.
The hooker Chad Redman was one of Newcastle Knights stars in last seasons under 20 NYC team, The standoff Jack Wighton plays for the Canberra Raiders, classy player too.

The Aussie props Groat and Grevsmuhl are awesome players, i didn't think England would match them there so well done to them.

Great result, and good from a Wigan point of view that some of our players were pivotal in England winning that game.

Never really heard much said about Powell on here, but hopefully he can continue to develop and join Sam and Mellor in the first team within the not to distant future.

Congratulations to the England team.
