Awesome till Hill came on Mr C

I thought the ref did OK today he had the right attitude, he wasn't pedantic, he explained, he smiled and looked in charge without being bossy.

We won't beat Oz or NZ though with our current line up.

Pack is OK but as someone posted a while ago we need to change our halfbacks.

Tomkins has to go to stand off and Burrow scrum half. Sinfield is better at hooker for me.

We still need centres who will pass to wingers.

Didn't he just sign a 3 year extension.

It was 5 years and I agree about our centres Reffy and Cudjoe needs to tighten up on his defence imo.

He signed a 5 year deal.

He won't if he keeps progressing like he is. Unlucky not to score and was instrumental in a great team score. Got a mention off Nobby also. Good luck to the lad.

Thought Hilly had a great game, couldn't be happier for him.

My favourite player in SL along with Jonny Lomax and (now) Sam Hopkins.

I was torn between Hill and Burrows today for MOM, although can't fault Sam Burgess on his performance. Bring on the quarters.

Brett Ferres has been one of our top players and to think McBanana only called him up to replace the Empty Head.

Totaly agree Bart and Keith. Love the way Brett plays the game and his tackling technique is first class against the bigger lads. Takes the legs hard and they go no where without them. Absolutely loving this tournment and the way both teams huddled in prayer after the game today was fantastic. I hope it was for Steve. What I am watching is nothing short of mega.

I think the starting front row next week could be Hill, Roby and Graham.

Personally I think we have the wrong hooker in Mcollorum. Did nothing for me but just tried to cause trouble. Mickey Higham or the lad from Hull would have been better.

Sinfield or Roby for me at hooker.

Thought the pie captain brought nothing to the party,the pie hooker is sharp around the rucks,hill was the game changer when he came on and burrows is fantastic

Jeff my good man , Sean O Loughlin is not fully fit ,but I still feel England will reach the Semis , Charlie will be in Attendance at the DW next Saturday ,but I think a Final Spot is beyond us , an Aus v New Zealand Final is on the cards , though im sure The Captain will disagree





.

Charlie stop making excuses for the pie captain simply not good enough.

Got our tickets for qf semi and final month ago


England be there.......jesus knows

if WE START LIKE THAT AGAINST AUS OR NEW ZEALAND WE WILL BE BEHIND 20 OR 30 POINTS BEFORE WE KNOW IT,WE WERE POOR IN FIRST HALF BETTER IN SECOND HALF ,FIJI VERY POOR IN SCONDHALF.

ABOUT TIME WE GOT OUR HALF BACKS SORTED SINFIELD ISNOT A SCRUM HALF ,GET BURROWS ON HE IS MORE DANGEROUS,AND SINFIELD IS NO LEADER,HE WAS VOTED TOP WORLD PLAYER HE NOT IN TOP 20.

AUSTRAILIA /NEW ZEALAND WILL GETT BETTER AND GO UP A GEAR WE WILL NOT INPROVE MUCH MORE .
I HOPE THE REFS AND LINES MEN DO NOT MAKES SAME MISTAKES ,TWICE NOW THEY SAID FOOT INTOUCH AND IT WASNT AND REFS GET IT WRONG ALL THE TIME,BUT I BET NOW WE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT THE REFS DECISSIONS WHEN/IF WE PLAY AUS OR NEW ZEALAND.

I agree we weren't very fluent in the first half but still feel that Burrow flourished later on partly because of the hard work done in the first half.

Unfortunately for England the country best HB thought he was a Scot

Not strictly true, he captained Scotland in the 2008 World Cup then made himself available for England but was never selected. There seemed were plenty halfbacks in front of him so he went back to Scotland. Another example of McNamara not having a clue.

What a stupid statement- not a leader, just look at leading Leeds to those grand finals from fifth spot etc and kicking
Last minute goals along the way.
Wether he is a half back is another debate.

His leadership is not in question

No need to shout, btw we don't have Linesmen in RL we have Touch Judges. Your opinion is as accurate as your knowledge, rubbish.

Is this the Australia that put 30 odd points past New Zealand in 2008 only to go on and lose the competition a few weeks later?

linesmen/touch judges same meaning isn't.
