As are Todd Carney and Greg Bird

I can see us losing all 3 games. The backs are rubbish

I would be surprised if we get a win in any of them. The Aussies and Kiwis will be looking to play a few fringe players against us.

Winners - Aussies
Top Try scorer - Manu Vatuvei NZ

Unfortunately I can see nothing but defeats to New Zealand and Australia and a scraped win over PNG.

i think comments being aired out here by big names like "England are toothless without Peacock and Morley" may just have an effect on the lads upfront !!
expect fireworks

england to lose to nz,surprisingly beat the aussies n edge a fired up png.but dont make the final on points difference.
i do think we can beat this decimated aussie team even if they have good replacments.
think benji will lead nz to a win over us though n we need a big start to prevent a mullering.still doing us 6-10 at bookies though,with a few £s on nz 16-20

Im happy with Englands pack even without peacock and Morley but i really fear for our back line barring Tompkins and my bias towards super tom i think were pretty screwed!!....theyl beat PNG and anything else will be a bonus&

Not the team i am too bothered about it is the poor coach in charge that will guarantee we play poorly.

Like all good englishmen we like to blame the coach in every sport...4 me i think thats harsh..the players have to be responsable for the outcome as well as the coach..

The coach had the pick of every English player out there so ultimately the vast amount of responsibility is on his shoulders.

not when the players dont turn up, and we've all seen that happen.every team in sl this season has had a stinker at some unfancied team and come a crocker and it didnt make their coach bad did it
seriously, how much do the players need to be motivated by a coach at international level.apart from a basic game plan and use of subs its in the players hands when they cross the whitewash.theyre up for it or they arent

Think we'll beat the Kiwis in morning...
NZ 16 Eng 26...
1st try B.Marshall...
Big Sam to have a stormer!

Got up on my day off and after the first 10 minutes I thought its going to get bad but credit to the lads, they put up a fight.
IMO Browns try would of turned the game on its head and maybe we would of gone on to win it.
Graham never stops all game, a great captains performance this morning. Shenton showed why St.Helens have signed him and on a Hull point of view Tom had a quiet game, did what he had to do but next week is a must win.
Oh and how good are the centenary shirts??

No chance of that now, must have jinxed him.

Can you tip 6 or 7 of the aussie squad next please?
