Mcilorum would defo be 1 of my subs. Although Roby was very good against Smith. Westwood was ok as was Ferres cut out the cheap penalties. Dont think the ref was the right choice.imo

the biggest let down was Robert Hicks on the touch line, pulling England up for everything

I know Ellis didn't have the best of seasons with us but I thought both 2nd were average yesterday. If Lineham and Crooks progress again next season then I can see them starting for England soon. The 10 Burgess I thought was outstanding yesterday. Pleased for Chris Hill as well. Thought he also played well.

George Burgess was a machine all game, never takes a backwards step, the kid's gonna go far.

George should of been off the bench. Need Graham back. Tom burgess only played a hand full of games last year yet comes in. Crabtree would of been more useful. Hill and George went off mid first half and we lost all momentum. Mossop is gash. He had zero impact in attack and less in defence, was slow motion at times and him and ablett are so far out of their depth at that level.
We could with the right team do damage but the sinefield at all costs will kill us. Roby off for all that time to accommodate him was ludicrous. If gonna pull that kind of stunt be better putting chase at hooker for all bit, at least has some zip n go about him. Better still burrow.
The playing of chase stuck out wide blows my mind too, S L s top carrier, try assister, tackle buster and off loader put out in a 2nd centre position. Yet sinefield gets the free role! ! DUMB. Also sir fookin Kevin there for his kicking missed more than he got,and place kicking Tompkins was better!
Thought Watkins had a great game, needs more ball. Did great with inglis. Leroy went well too to be fair. Charnley didn't go well for me. Lazy in the first place before got caught in touch for oz try, think Briscoe would of made a better attempt in defence on a couple of the tries as well
So could of won yesterday which would of presented easier route to final. Gonna struggle in a semi against new Zealand. To me stronger than the Australians

a few changes for me.......will he bold and drop Chase AND Sinfield.....we only looked like opening them up when Widdop came on,Graham to come back in along with O'Loughlin.

He's only got 2 more games plus the quarter final to get things right.

Whats he been doing the last 3yrs then....he hasnt got it right then nor now......He peed Brough off so he went to Scotland,the lance todd and grand final winning scrum half wasn't even considerd along with Myler,Robinson,Lomax sowhodoes he pick at 7..captain fantastic who is a loose-forward.

Graham for Burgess
Widdop for Sinfield

Blew our best chance of beating the aussies.

Graham should start and play George off the bench. Lockers to 13 and Widdop in from the start.

Sinfield was one of our best players!

Whoever did the match report for NRL.com thought so to, Sinfield was given 8/10. I rate Sinfield, everything good that has come out of Leeds in the last ten years has revolved around him. The only question I have is this Sinfield at all costs policy, it means the exclusion of players like Widdop. Craig Bellamy obviously sees enough in Widdop to rush him back after a serious injury this season.

Anybody for mcnamara!!
