It also prevented the Kaiser Chiefs from performing their second song.

Their first song sounded like Jamie Jones Buchanan on the karaoke. I don’t know if that was the sound setup or age catching up with the singer.

Clubs play far more than 24 players in a season. We are also talking the highest intensity RL.

Clubs play more than 6 games. Half the countries will only play 3.

Let's see how many countries run out of players. My guess is none.

I still don't want to tempt fate, but without my partisan hat on I don't see how England weren't ever favourites for this.

You can't just create a team that have never played together amd expect them to perform like an NRL Grand Final team.

Don't get me wrong, they'll be a totally different proposition in a few weeks.

Why no 9 on the bench though?

Radley being used as the second 9 by the looks of it.

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

Woods and Davies constantly whinging on about Samoa’s mistakes. It’s England’s defensive pressure, our run metres especially in the opening half, and the scoreboard we’ve created, that’s led to them pushing things.
 

Focus on the positives, the moaning old g***

Apparently this site says I "won the day" here on 23rd Jan, 19th Jan, 9th Jan also 13th December, whatever any of that means. Anyway, 4 times in a few weeks? The forum must be going to the dogs - you people need to seriously up your game. Where's Dutoni when you need him?

I saw the odds earlier this week on England. I just thought ,'if I was a betting man, I'd be all over England for that game'.
