[bratman]

Can see that was down on the first shot

[Dr Tim Whatley]

England absolutely pumping a dangerous opponent in front of a huge crowd and a BBC1 Saturday afternoon audience. Just what the doctor ordered.

So, that’s nothing to do with his performance today, which has been completely fine. 

He’s not been up to much, that’s my comment on his game today. But you’re allowed to disagree, I really don’t mind. 

[Mark S]

Lomax would have had the time of his life against this Samoan team.

[Jughead]

The Lee Radford effect. What is he doing anywhere near international elite sport?! 

Can’t see how Parrish survives this. 

[EastLondonMike]

Let’s go for 50!!

To suggest any England player hasn’t had a good game is, simply, ludicrous. 

[Derwent]

Thoroughly deserved try for Whitehead, his work rate has been exceptional today in attack and defence.

[RL Tragic]

If you look at the players they are playing, I don’t think I’ve ever seen England play as well

[gingerjon]

We need to make sure we keep focused until minute 80. No letting Samoa in for a few consolation points. Need to make a statement that this is an England team that doesn't relax.

Let's see ...

[Damien]

Well my England bet looks safe. I don't know how Samoa were ever favourites for this.

I get what he’s going for I just don’t agree with it in MM. All this big blokes getting a roll on and no dummy half to take advantage. Tomkins jumped in once tied up markers and we scored. If we had Ackers or even Darrell Clarke we would be 30 points up now.

Well we:te 32 points up right now with Micky Mac

And you are entitled to your opinion. I’m not particularly jingoistic. 

[SydneyRoosters]

This just goes to show how much better the NRL is then the Super League.

Super league is totally just a farmers league for retired NRL players .

And humbling that Luai while they're at it. Can't help but love to see it.

[gingerjon]

THAT WAS SO MAGNIFICENTLY FORWARD!

[Waynebennettswinger]

Made up for Whitehead. He goes a bit under the radar but he does what he does very well.

[bratman]

Miles forward

Make that 38

[JimBronco]

And there's another one

[SydneyRoosters]

I didn’t even expect this I have been predicting England win by 20-30 points for ages now.

[Damien]

That was a mile forward

[Gerrumonside ref]

This will give them a lot of belief 

[Roy Haggerty]

Haha. Mile forward from Tommy!
