Currie bang average behave

He's not world class but he's a good player

Got pace most 2nd rowers could only dream of

One of them props is Chris Hill now he is BANG AVERAGE

Watched the game this morning, Brown was very solid again, came on earlier and got more minutes, passing out of dummy half is exceptional.

Marty Lees should pick up a big ban for what he did..Pulling a players hair just because he got clattered in the tackle,Absolutely disgusting and Wilkins just said it should have been red and Kendal being his usual look at me self.

England played some really good rugby in poor conditions , Nice to see we have some options in the half's in positions we normally struggle to fill . I thought Tonga have been poor in this series , I think there a lot better team than what they've shown .

Problem with tonga since 2017 they've lost world class players like taoumalo, Michael jennings and Andrew fifita

Spine players always seem to be the issue for the pacific island teams. Generally average players from SL or NRL fringe players.

Wheelchair game looked like a great event at the First Direct arena yesterday, hopefully the RFL capitalise on this and we have more games in the near future.

Seperately, if as rumoured Samoa are touring next year, get the fixtures published and tickets on sale now to avoid a repeat of this year's poorly attended Tonga srries. There's only one event you can book for 2024 currently via the rfl and that's the challenge cup final... definitely an area the sport needs to improve on

Yeah , loved the wheelchair game , Played in front of 2500 fans as well .

Bad day for English rugby league
1. Samoa turned down the RFLs offer to tour in 2024 preferring to play in the Pacific cup instead
2. Salford issued a warning about not having an agreement in place for their ground
3. Cornwall not taking part in the 1895 cup at the request of other clubs due to how far away it is!

Really does feel like rugby league is in a complete mess in this country at the moment

Aye , Gutted we're not getting a tour from Samoa this year nor the Aussies or the Kiwis till 2027 .Looks like the NRL is holding all the cards now with the International game and England scratching around for crumbs .
There's a mid season game against France in Perpignan but other than that , Its looking very depressing for Northern Hemisphere IRL.
