I just can’t see past the Aussies sweeping everyone aside with ease, they really are on a different level.

Me either, but the New Zealander’s all ways seem to put up a fight regardless. The Aussie backs will destroy England! As usual

I have become , comfortably numb.

Re: SOO : Mon Jun 14, 2021 6:04 am  
I said after watching the game that England could well end up winless at the World Cup. The way Satae and Sao dominated Walmsley, England's most dominant forward in the cup semi, , doesn't bode well for the internationals , particularly when it should be remembered that neither of our props were even regular squad players in the NRL. Turbo Tom, Latrell Mitchell and Nathan Cleary are the new superstars, but look at the Tongan and Kiwi players week in week out that also star in the NRL and I fear it may be a repeat of 1982 all over again with a whitewash. There isn't one English player who would oust their Aussie equivalent , although Whitehead and possibly Bateman deserve a mention. The only hope we have of avoiding humiliation is if the Aussie players don't want to play, some regard internationals as unimportant, certainly less than the Origin games.
Thankless job Shaun Wane has with this one and I doubt he'll be in the job long after the trophy is handed out.

Thompson is the best English prop by far at the moment and he would merit a mention. Bateman's form is nowhere near how he performed in the NRL.

Went to the Townsville SOO game.New stadium there is terrific Although I am a resident of NSW I am a Queensland fan and will be in Brisbane for SOO2 hoping for a better result.

Watched him yesterday morning in the Dogs surprise victory and he went well alongside young Jack Hetherington (I really like him) although having their front-line hooker back made a massive difference.
The Redvee were truly awful mind.
Dufty dynamic in attack but his defence is atrocious and yesterday's game went a long way in justifying their decision to offload him.

Certainly looked cracking did the stadium.
I would be hoping Queensland could level the series up, but, in all honesty, can only see a 3-0 whitewash/spanking.
Hope I'm proved wrong.
