It’s not about the quality though is it? It’s about getting the uninitiated engaged and that’s far more likely to happen with England than it is Wigan or Saints.

Dunno mate, I reckon the uninitiated changed over to Come Dine With Me repeats about an hour ago

It’s been a great advert for Lancashire vs Yorkshire .

Yep

[Gerrumonside ref]

All too easy.

[Davo5]

As bad as France have been,the individual skill levels shown by some of the young England players has been outstanding.

[Gerrumonside ref]

This can’t be doing those French players much good in terms of development equally.

[bratman]

Williams and Handley have been excellent.

[bratman]

Penalty?!

[crashmon]

Well I think my 60 points for England prediction will be close, shame the 10 for France is not going to happen

[andyscoot]

That was clearly a penalty...

[Old Frightful]

I hope nobody was claiming a penalty try there, the ball had long gone over the dead ball line.

[Old Frightful]

George Williams, error strewn...

[Derwent]

Attendance is 8,422 for those who like to argue about these things.

I’m an RL fan and I’m only watching second half until snooker comes back on.

funny thing is what turned me from just a casual interest in RL was the First test in 86 at a packed out Old Trafford, electric! , but this isn’t at old Trafford and isn’t GB v Kangaroos 

[Old Frightful]

Welsby, error strewn...

No it isn't.

[Gates1]

Absolutely boring and pointless game, does nothing for the sport.

France?

[Wolfey Rovers]

French offering very little to the international scene then...

You must give most Wigan games a miss then. 

I give all Wigan games a miss unless they are playing Leigh.

[binosh]

Exciting, fast, tough, competitive and a great spectacle for the casual TV viewer are all words you won’t be hearing today.

about the same as England from Australian point of view, nit worth playing too easy

A bit of head scratching to be done then?
