Happier now?

I rate Smith highly but that was poor on all counts, decision making, execution everything was bad. Let’s hope he settles into his normal high standards

If you couldn't get some enjoyment out of that then possibly rugby league is not the sport for you.

But also, we really should be playing teams like Samoa anyway, irrespective of what is going on with Oz. It's a really weird complaint.

I also think that it's all just a little small time RL thinking. We don't have to benchmark everything to Australia. We're playing Samoa, analyse the match based on the opposition and what we've done

BBC a bit light on the replays. Why are we watching Smith fasten his laces and tee up the conversion?

And another easy try. 

Samoa just look outclassed and too slow to deal with England so far.

Milford is the weak link for me. He hasn't been at international standard for a long while

Talagi should have been at #6 IMO.

It's hard to beat having serious pace and footwork in the backs, allied with real size too.

But England seem to be beating it.

Said the same a few days ago, it’s a shame we aren’t seeing Wardle there as well instead of Newman

bring back proper internationals and tours   --gb v aus  or nz - not a cobbled together team who have just stepped off a plane without even a warm up - this is a waste of time

Good scramble defence there from England and then great feet to get the ball out their half.

I'm on about England

I know. But it's been traditional that the moaners confidently predict that our little SL backs won't be able to compete against the giant Pacific Islanders.

Yeah, he has easily been the weakest link so far for Samoa in defence.

If this was a SL game someone would be in the bin by now with the amount of messing about in the tackle from Samoa.

Well, I assume you know where the "off" switch is on your TV then.

Would have been nice to see Ashton break free with 70 metres in front of him

It's hard to believe that ain't gonna happen today.

The only thing some English Rugby League fans dislike more than England losing a game is England winning a game.
