Way too radical for the old farts at Red Hall anyway.



It's definitely an English problem, but not exclusive to Rugby League.

Football, Tennis, and Kick and Clap, are equally as guilty of it.

I've said this elsewhere, instead of copying the Aussie game how about listening to the RL public for once?

Exactly, we should innovate instead of imitate.

What we need is a coach who will move the game forward like Herbert Chapman and Rinus Michels did in football.

Apart from Strength, Speed and Conditioning, the way Rugby League has been played hasn't changed much in the last 20 years.

Only two points out

Lets enjoy the moment for the next few days.


























Then reality will kick in.

Australia to win but a closer game providing England play off the cuff and allow the natural talent of the players rein.

Play to the book or set pattern and they will be hammered (See 1st half at Wigan)

And this is the sad part, I wouldn't miss GB/England matches v the Aussies once upon a time and had great days out.

There is no attraction to me ( and quite a lot of others) now to go the games, probably because they are foregone conclusions and the current state of the game as a whole.
