About time mcnamara saw sense
he has dropped Chase for N Zealand game hope he has put Burrow in
also put Ablett back in squad will need him for his defence if he is picked to play that is.

Just read he has been replaced by Widdop

Discipline on the field may be a problem for Chase , no doubt the Kiwis would have got to him !

Hope to see some Dons fans on Saturday !

Absolutely fantastic England
i am gutted!
we were the better side overall i thought
as usual we get kicked in the teeth at the last minute.

Incredibly unlucky. Silly penalty to give away near the end though which assisted the Kiwi's.

England don't know HOW to win.
For Christ sake the game was as good as won.

I knew that Sinfield missing that EASY conversion would come back to haunt us ... either that we would not score again and lose by two or go four ahead and always be at risk.

I suppose it saved us from humiliation again at the hands of the Aussies.

Brilliant effort and body with no brains to direct it.
Get a better coach now.

Have been today , very upset , said at the time hope that missed kick doesnt come back to haunt us. Shame we gave away the penalty that lead to the try !

The ref was crap.

Perhaps Watkin could have turned inside to put ball down nearer posts and made kick easier but an excellent performance and a very exciting game. Well done England

We lost ......
We lost two consecutive games at Wembley in football for the first time since the seventies.
We lost to NZ in RU.
We are currently being dismantled by the Aussies in cricket.
We are good at losing lately.
I see nothing to get excited about.

And if I hear that we have learned a lot in defeat again from any of our losing coach/managers I will want to know just exactly what?!

i said that at the time.
also i don't think that was a penalty which the kiwis got early in
the second half after Tompkins had taken the high ball.

What a crap final.
You can state the bleeding obvious that Australia were very good, but NZ were shiite.
The better final would have been England vs Aussies.

You have to admire the Australian defence , clearly the best side & yes the Kiwis were poor.

agree poor final, shame really been a good tournament .

As much as I've enjoyed this world cup in a way I'm glad its done with as I've got my fingers crossed we will here about more signings now its over - we seem rather light upfront. Can't comment on the final as I've not got round to watching it yet

My lasting memory of the 2013 World Cup , was being present at the semi final at Wembley England v NZ what a game !

Can the RFL build on this , oh & can we have a game in South Yorkshire please next time round .
