Knock on again by Sam Burgess - gift of excellent field position to Australia again.

Why are you bothering to watch if you have no interest in the international game?



TBH I can't understand anyone who claims to be neutral when their country is competing at [iany[/i sporting event. Especially against Australia.

Just give 'em it now boys....

The ref does not know what's happening now

Was that a restart? I think so..

Id of loved Graham to of nuked Smith then

Westwood = liability. He's been putting in high shots all game - technique is utter pants.

I agree, he should have laid him out

Because I like to watch RL. And as for competing??? Since when did we compete in RL?

TBH i couldnt give a flying one about international rugby either and gave up on it yonks ago but its still a game of rugby and want to watch it.

Im just waiting for the cricket to start as it will be more competitive than this shower of fooking $hite.

It wasn't the last time we were there!

I'd class that as being interested TBH, But I guess that's just a difference in definitions.


So you only want to support a good side?

Thought we were in with a chance when we were 8-6 up and the VR gave that shocking try. That gave Oz their role which tore us apart. Archer has been woeful. I feel cheated at the minute. 3 of their tries have come from shocking calls and we've had our play pulled back. Could/should be a 2 point ball game.

It is a game of rugby, i watched the grand final even though my side never played in it. I don't support any international side and as I am a Hull fc supporter your quote of only wanting to support a good side makes no sense at all



The fact is the majority of the time the only real international RL game worth watching is Aus v NZ and fortunately we will get to watch them 2 weeks running.

He's been absolutely awful.....

Harsh...he has been unable to play as Aussie have wrapped him up every time.

When have we been good just lately?

We will be lucky to beat Wales next year....seen this all before....i used to love internationals....used to go all over watching but not now......sack of $hit and we will continue to be.

Should/could be a 2 point ball game???? Aussies may have had the rub of the green with a couple of calls but England have been so far off it is comical. The fact England took the 2 when they had 6 tackles on the Aussie try line showed the team/coach had very little belief they could beat the Aussies.

FFS!!! what happened to benefit of the doubt

Benefit of Doubt? Ref's call

That only works one way.

Defo should have neutral refs!!!

Massive Tomkins fan, but he's been poor IMO. Not on his own, mind.

Tompkins has been worse than Widdop was last week...will he be dropped.

Australia would have won no doubts there, but the refs have made this very very embarrassing for themselves

Does it matter now? Would imagine he'll play anyone who's not had a game yet. Hopefully will play Hall for Briscoe so Briscoe can avoid injury in a pointless match.
