Sat 15 Oct: RLWC: England v Samoa KO 14:30

[MZH]

I reckon he's dislocated his hip. Fingers crossed for him whatever.

[bratman]

Thoguht that one was stripped tbh

[Sports Prophet]

Well now there is a temporary break in transmission for foxtel!!!!

[EastLondonMike]

Looks like another forward to centre for Samoa. Must be more opportunities for us down that attacking right edge.

I missed that as I only tuned in before KO. What happened exactly?

Newcastle stadium management didn't put enough Saudi blood money in the meter, so the PA system went down as the trophies were due to be brought out. It also prevented the Kaiser Chiefs from performing their second song.

24 man squads do seem on the light side for a sport like Rugby League.

For a max 6 games?

Clubs are working on not much more than that for a whole season.

Not so temporary  

[Cake Tiger]

TV feed in NZ is down too. Thankfully, I can get BBC with a VPN 

[Gerrumonside ref]

England! 

[dkw]

Get in Watkins, good short side reaction play.

[Pulga]

So Kayo has just been playing ads for the last 5 minutes...

[Guest]

Average effort Fox.

[Futtocks]

Kallum Watkins in, but another Samoan down hurt.

[bratman]

Good play again

[Hughsehhh]

Buzzing for Watkins.

Especially after the times he had and how honest he's been with it 

[Roy Haggerty]

Watkins rolling back the years. 

[gingerjon]

Jiffy hasn't got any better at explaining how tries are scored.

Looks like there's a problem with the worldwide transmission?

Great from Watkins

[DavidM]

Yes ! Nice offload from Cooper to , need a few more of them . Second phase can kill them as they tire down in numbers

[MZH]

That should settle it, especially with Samoa now down to pretty much a bare 13.

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

Has Wane deliberately put them in a ###### changing room?

Brilliant 

He likes to keep things humble. His interview on the High Performance Podcast was insightful.

There should be a dispensation for, 1 or 2 emergency call-ups (but no more) if a squad's injuries pass a certain threshold.

World Cups don't come along too often, and it should present the game at its best.
