Who’s watching? Rooting for the Burgess lads to do well this tournament.

Yep! They’ll have to go some to beat these Ozzies

Watching this plus United batter Stoke whilst making a carrot cake. Tidy.

Strong start!

Got tickets for semi finals this morning. Tournament needs a strong England

And now the mistakes have started to come lol.

balls, forgot this was on, getting it on now

Australia got themselves into the game late on there.. we’ll struggle to pull this b ack now. Not impossible though. Burgess boys are well impressive,

first half of the first half was very impressive. Very disappointed with the mistakes and sloppy play in the later stages though. fingers crossed Steve McNamara can inspire them for the second half

Aye were gonna struggle with these officials making bad calls!

Foot was in, wasn’t a knock on.

And the ref forcing Chase onto the blind side of the scrum gave them that try at the end of the first half.

brilliant tramp stamp!

Top entertainment this!

Good game, England very competitive. No surprise with the result..

Too many silly penalties though…

Better than I expected from England. Need to keep concentration and intensity for full eighty. Aus always seem to be that bit fitter.

Need to drop Westwood,too many penalties and not enough in attack. Sam won’t be playing after getting pinged for that tackle so I’d put O’Loughlin in the second row and play Sinfield at 13. He’s probably the Whino’s best ever loose forward and McNamara plays him at scrum half – Burrow would have run rings around them in the last fifteen minutes. Graham needs to be in at least the 17 at the expense of Mossop and either me or my Nan instead of Ablett 😉
