Apparently no changes to the Australian team and 11 positional changes for England including 4 new faces.

Gonna be interesting to see how Ellis goes in this game!
 
Lewis scores. not sure what the decision was before. i thought that was a knock on from tate but they gave a penalty :question:
 
Gallen gave away like 3 penalties in 15 minutes. why is he in the nsw team???? and even the australian team???
 
Gallen caught out with the decoy and then gives away the penalty. The soap dodgers looked dangerous, should have taken the tap, instead of the kick. Roby, Ellis and Burgess all looking good.
 
England are alright in the forwards, woeful in the backs. Our second string backline is running rings around them. Imagine what would happen if Thurston, Inglis, Hayne and Hodges were all out there. If the poms are to compete with Australia and New Zealand they need to produce some decent backs.
 
The English backs are turnstiles and far too many errors which has let us skip away. Very young side apparently though, average age of 22.

How is Tonga in the side?
 
Thank god Tonga didnt have a hand in that play. Lote needs a centre who actually passes occassionally
 
How about that scrum move? If Tonga passed, Lote would have been in for sure. Rowdy is really good at that, now i know how good Lawrence is :astonished:

Hayne does SFA at test level, at least Lote can read the line defensively. Agree on Hodges, Inglis and Thurston though. Tate is very well playing his last test series in the green and gold.

Gallen and Watmough are woeful. Bring heighington in at lock, or move Lewis to lock and put Taylor in at second row.

Probably the most forward passes called in a game this year, and they're still calling them
wrong or missing them.
 
thats the problem with test football everyone is out there for themselves and only want to get on the scoreboard to show how good they are instead of doing the thing thats right for the team.
 
I cant be bothered watching the second half. This whole tournament has been boring, even yesterday I couldnt get into the Kiwi's beating the shit out of the Kumuls.

I'm presumming next week everyone else will get a run so lets hope Chris gets his first test jumper…

Bring on the Final, and lets hope both Teams are serious...
 
Laxatives are the only way tonga will ever pass anything.
Refs were terrible. Aus got 3 tries off 2 knock on's and a forward pass.
NZ will win the next 2 games easily on current form.
