Scotland's performance against the Aussies almost looking handy now

Plenty of mistakes in this lot though. 

Yes i think this incarnation for all of that has chinks in their armour if you are good enough and can aim up to them and respond 

[RugbyBaller]

France wheelchair score at risk here.....

[Hopping Mad]

Well, I thought this would be more of a contest. Lebanon look like they've given up. Switching off at half-time, I fear.

[bratman]

Hmm, Aus looking ruthless. Lebanon struggling.

[Welshleaguelover]

Our British referees are fully in love with the Aussies.

[OriginalMrC]

Record quarter final defeat incoming? The Aussies are phenomenal but I thought Lebanon would be better than this.

Yes im sure the Aussies are going to score over 150 points

[Futtocks]

Okay, I'm done with this thread. Not the match, just this thread.

[Welshleaguelover]

Australia are beatable.

They will not win the world cup.

[OMEGA]

Lebanon need to score the first 5 try’s after the break or this games over

[Dunbar]

Really disappointing scoreline.  But we have a team with some players who haven't yet made their first team debuts yet against some of the best players in the world.

As we have said plenty of times over the last 3 weeks, Rugby League is a cruel sport and really exposes a mismatch in strength. 

[Mattrhino]

Captains challenge is so stupid, obviously Australia knocked it on. They didn't even look at the right thing.

[GeordieSaint]

FFS. 

Harry Grant was the person who touched it… they were looking at the wrong challenge.

[redjonn]

What amused me was Amor saying the Lebanon tacklers have to do better.  The aussies are so much bigger what does he think they can do better given the size difference...

I'm glad you see it too

Did Vossy say ‘There’s nothing ###### about Murray’? Very BBC.

[Welshleaguelover]

We are a bunch of idiots for surrendering the future of the game to Australian gambling addicts.

Just look at your post and those of the other anti-ref posts and be embarrassed that adults are seeing what's been posted. What must they think?

Exactly was so stupid. I assume it works with proper RL director in charge. But even so whats good about stopping the game for 2 minutes for a folly challenge.

I think he’s one of the best players in the world . And he can’t even get in his position

Thought it was just me! He kept saying to go back but surely it was forward the replay needed to go?! There was a contest for the ball after the bit he checked and it was that which looked like the Aussie touched it. 
 

Please don’t bring this rubbish in to Superleague.

So are NZ and England. None of them have had a legitimate challenge yet. It's not about how well you put it together in a blowout and everything is going your way. It's how these 3 teams respond to a legitimate challenge and a bit of pressure.

[Mark S]

England need absolutely hammer the Aussie forwards in the first 20 minutes and put the fear of god into them. To quote Stevo, ‘they need to peel their skin back’.
