we all know what ''who'' went wrong

easy

team spirit or should i say lack off !!! it was so easy to spot being there !! only times i seen players from different club teams was on the pitch or at training !!! very proffesional

also the names on the team sheet showed how short we are on quality in the super league. all overseas must be sent back !

But enough about Australia, so what does everybody think went wrong with England?

Think our friend is eluding to Mr Kleins aparent poor performance in the final. IMO it was nothing to do with Ash and more to do with Australia's inability to complete sets added to the fact that thy give away too many penalties.

its plain too see what happened with the england bulldog spirit .or is that the england charouwas puppies

charouwa pride

i#ve missed this big time....wtf are you on about?

England lacked composure. As usual.

Australia didn't get their timing right.

NZ did. What a counterpunch it was...

England had no team spirit. Therefore EVERYTHING!!! went wrong.

Glad i'm not the only one who missed fredie over the off-season.

u would be very suprised how famous fredie is

What are charouwas?

That's almost a proper sentence... did you go to school yesterday?

Who is fredie?

Flinstone.

Fredie doesn't go to school anymore,he works in a law firm out at bedrock.

Who said anything went wrong??? Australia lost. That's perfect.

what went wrong with eengland . nothing , just standard show

They played to the best of their ability against the three teams they met, England have been spouting for years about how good they are at various sports whilst being generally low grade performers.....for years in both RL and RU the English attitude has been to have a pack of blubbering forwards that are too slow to catch a cold and expect them to wear down the opposition pack,..this succeededyears ago,but nowadays it doesn't work,justlook at the Australian & New Zealand packs at least four in each pack are fast enough to play in the back lines,whilst the poms are so slow they could have THEIR handbags snatched by an old lady and be unable to catch her.

who cares how england went or go . as long as the aussies lose . thats all that counts for you poms . very sad

Nothing really went wrong in that anything particularly unexpected happened. Before the tournament it was obvious that the England side lacked creativity in attack, was average to weak in the threequarters, had no attacking threat from full back, a non existent kicking game and a one trick pony at scrum half when you need more than that to fool a top class defence. They were never going to win even if they played up to their best. New Zealand OTOH had good enough individuals to be close in individual talent to the Australians, played to their ability and took advantage of the bounces that went their way to win well in the end.

Until England find genuinely creative and skillful down the middle players at 1, 6, 7 and 13 (they are enough options at 9) then you can forget all your sports psychologist bunkum because you can't win without the talent.

what a crock of sh*t*
