Well done England

I can honestly say that I feel robbed

Really good performance, score doesn't reflect the game due to awful refereeing decisions plus Sinfield having an off day with the book.

Ryan Hall and Sam were the standouts.

I must have high standards because the defence and discipline would embarrass a schoolboy team. They scored nearly every time they got into our 20m. There was no structure to the attack. 5 of their tries came from penalties or errors from Chase and Westwood.

Hall, Sam and Roby played well.

Thought the defence was awful TBH, but for a change the backs outdid the forwards, mind you that idiot coach picked a very light bench.

With the exception of Rangi Chase and Kirk Yeaman (and a few silly penalties from Westwood) I think we played excellent. Think we've got enough to beat NZ and have another go at the aussies.

The ref was completely out of his depth.

Tomkins, Reed, Hall, and Roby ran the show. Class.

Need 4 props. Chase is an idiot. They are honestly my only complaints. I am very happy with the performance and fancy englands chances in the future. Oh and england seem determined to charge out of the line at every opportunity...

I still think that had T-Rex walked and Briscoe was given the try (the correct calls by the way !) then the game should have rightly swung for us.

Chase had a few brain sh*ts during the game BUT it is players like that who will cause the aussies problems. I like the fact he is unpredictable. Sam was outstanding today because he did things that aren't predictable. We have our predictable & sensible players like Sinfield & Roby who the Aussies can usually read. Chase just adds another dimension which makes teams stand off - This gives players like Sam the extra space.

Saying all that though, I still feel robbed !

I could accept the swinging arm being given either way, although obviously i would have preferred him off.

Two points.

Referee was a complete and utter joke. The try that never was and he let them get away with a lot of messing around and holding at the PTB. I could go on but i would be here all night

Chase MOS looks even more stupid than it did when it was announced. Look at how Roby and Sam played compared to him I thought Sinfield was poor in the halves and that Chase was better but i couldnt of been more wrong.

You guys must have low standards we got beat by 16 points.

Having said that some individual players played well, Sam Tomkins was good so were Reed and Hall.

to be fair to westwood he only got penalised for what the convicts was doing all the game , as for the biased ref no try for briscoe , the high shot on westwood where he stated it came of his shoulder lol , tipping tomkins over on his head after the tackle completed etc etc , the guy ruined a great game

If the ref would of given that try that should of been it wouldnt of been 16. We were in there fighting for most of the game and I still think we can play much better. Poor defence cost us on reflection but there were signs of encouragment there overall.

No way was it a 16 point game.

Chase should be dropped to the bench and Widdop given a chance at 7. He's a similar player to Chase but seems to have some common sense. Sinfield may not be a superstar but he's done alright and has a good passing and kicking game. He looks better at 6 where he he time on the ball.

A 4th prop on the bench seems essential because Wilkin and JJB are offering pretty much the same thing off the bench. Injuries to Peacock, Ellis and Graham are concerns though.

The biggest positives were Sam Tomkins and Ryan Hall finally playing at their best on the international stage.

the ref seemed to start off okay, but when England scored the first try, it seemed to all change. The high tackle, should've been a yellow. Fight should've had yellows. Disallowed try was a try.

England didn't play great, but neither did the aussies. And to think I was praising NRL refs earlier on today...

i think the sheens influenced the game today with hes little moan last week.
