Stevo: "They don't call him Beep Beep for nothing."

There's only you calls him that, Stevo, you massive jizzy cock.

Well thats 80mins i wont get back...what a utter pile of turd.

What a terrible game.

Sinfield and Chase don't work
Ablett is
Charnley looked average
Hall had a mare
Why do we still have Peacock and Carvell playing, they'll be well past it in time for the world cup

Can't believe there was 11k there. Looked half-empty. Capacity there is 18000.
Snorefest of a game, and I have my doubts about the whole concept of the exiles. Seemed too matey to me. It needs to be a lot more edgey if it is to catch on. Team mates - turned slightly miffed opponents.

Not helped by the complete lack of atmosphere.

It was cack...

Exactly my thoughts. In the second half when Tomkins knocked on under the posts Lauaki was there patting him on the shoulder. If anything he should of been up in his face winding him up.

Terrible game bring back Briscoe should never have been dropped - nothing wrong with his form for England.

Thought Charnley had done enough to get the nod before the game, but both wingers were poor tonight IMO.

why do you think that?

One word or rather two Fxxking cack

Bring Super League down to 10 competitive teams, create a more thriving championship underneath with potential for growth, this will also free up the calendar to introduce Yorkshire v Lancashire or similar origin games as a trial series for England v Exiles preparing us more for international tournaments.

I understand the idea but I can't see clubs being happy to lose four home fixtures.

International RL is pretty much dead. Great Britain/England have not won a tournament since 1972. We've not beaten Australia in an Ashes series since 1970 and we've stopped even trying for that.

Don't agree - Briscoe had done enough for England to merit his place - Charnley has been good for Wigan and is a good winger but Briscoe shouldn't be dropped on the basis of Charnley's club form. Briscoe should have retained his place and if he had played like Charnley did tonight then Charnley should have got the nod for the next game. Briscoe's decent England form was ignored in selection for tonight's game and that is wrong IMO.

Shouldn't we be picking players who are on form now rather than the last time they played Internationally ?.

Why - is Briscoe off form ?

As long as the last international performance wasn't a disaster and the club form isn't poor then I think there has to be a level of continuity and loyalty in the international team selection. Charnley should have had to wait his turn like Briscoe did. If Briscoe had played like Charnley did tonight I would have expected him to have been replaced for the next game by Charnley - I just hope it works the other way now.

I can see why Charnley has been giving the nod as he is SL inform winger and Hulls club form isn't great atm, But that said , Neither is L**ds.

No arguments from me over Charnleys selection ahead of Briscoe, but he didn't show his club form -then again, can't think of [ianyone[/i who had a really good game. Suspect Briscoe would have looked average too had he played tonight.
Up to Brisc to show enough form with Hull to prove McNamara made the wrong choice.

What exactly did Charnley do wrong other than the one knock on? Since Monaghan also struggled in a similar situation, a player who is considered strong in the air, it was hardly the worst mistake to make.

I said before the game I was adamant Briscoe should not have been dropped, Charnley does not have the quality that he does. He did nothing. Neither did the vastly over rated Atkins and Ablett. Shows how good you can be in 'form' when you are an edge player who play in good teams who allow you to basically walk tries in.

Good god, what a boring game that was. I agree about the point regarding the Thursday night matches, at least there was more passion in them, this game was played between two understrength teams (england without the ones down under and exiles without several withdrawals). As for the chase/sinfield partnership, it clearly wont work. Chase shouldnt be playing for us end of and sinfield clearly isnt good enough. But then I remember who the coach is and thankfully sigh a relief that we didnt get him.

I enjoyed last years match but I dont think I will bother with around 5000 trying to create an atmosphere in the galpharm on a wednesday night. What does Hull have to do to get a match?

England should be putting plenty of points a side as bad as the exiles.

Me neither, nor do the pies according to their board.
Apart from being a dirty little he has yet to prove it for me in a decent team, he was very average last night, I personally think he is up his own @rse and incapable of playing in a structured team, his team mates don't even know what he is going to do next, all fancy dummies, vastly overrated, not as good as Brough for me. Madness to even contemplate a £350k transfer fee, sheer madness.

Awful game. Watching that shortly after watch the SOO was like watching a kick about in the park
