Love this, could watch it every week.
Reading all the suggestions about how to make England stronger, I think there is a case for a 5 or 6 nations tournament.
Aus
NZ
Samoa
Tonga
Poms
And Fiji, png, cook to qualify
Edit. Every second year at least....footy till Christmas
Ref ruining what would have been a huge chance at an upset for south Africa.
2 or 3 wrong calls and 2 or 3 50/50s
Why bother putting the minnows on TV just for the ref to butcher the contest.
Its some poindexter from the nrl who is pretty sure has dudded us before.
I think that's spot on.
He's going to always look like he should be an attacking weapon with his physique, but hasn't ever really shown that consistently.
You're also right that he's an upgrade and I think he'll go down in the solid signing category. Good thing is there is minimal risk of him...
Look at the first samoa game, he set up multiple match winning opportunities and his team mates fluffed them.
In several games we needed to see that from him in big moments, especially in the 4 close games during our long losing streak. NSW needed it too.
So - it's good to see in this...
Very watchable footy
Samoa bombed some chances that's for sure and Brown lucky. Not the most fluid attack but the pacific sides can now maintain 80 minutes of intense defence which makes these games good to watch.
Love Madge, would probably hate to play for him because im talentless and lazy....probably says something about the roles he's failed in, or maybe role is a better word as its only happened once.
Roosters clearly dont care about welfare....so many double head knocks in the same game assuming I'm reading that right.
And if im wrong stuff em anyway
Some good improvements from individuals, really enjoyed seeing Sione kick on, Samuela came good imo, Doueihis best year. Terrel May was mostly good but think his impact iver the season was going the wrong way. Sunia and Skelton mostly good but some very quiet games too. So far so good with Latu...
