Christ someone with a sensible comment about our failing in the World Cup. I thought I was going insane as nobody else appeared to notice it.

All the Aussie games were ref'd by NRL refs bar the final which they lost! Even if they had all played under the same rule interpretations we had a poor squad selection. 22 going instead of 24.

Awful team selection. The attack didn't have a clue and the defence wasn't worthy of the description. Smith was not up to the job and out of his depth.

Add a divided squad and that was the recipe for disaster.

What we got was a disaster.

However it wasn't the disaster that it would have been if the WC had been played in this country.

I hope the report into England's World Cup isn't a whitewash.

All the ‘grapple’ did was highlight how ineffective we are at opening up defences. Personally I wouldn’t mind the play the balls slowing down, it would mean a team would have to work to break teams down. Leeds/Saints success is based largely on quick PTBs and broken field running, without that England looked lost.

the first NZ - AUS game was reffed by Klein too, which they won comfortably.

Im bored of this wrestling excuse. We played rubbish, we dropped the ball, we passed like idiots, we missed tackles. What because they wrestled on the ground a bit longer than in SL?!? Get over it. We were over confident and badly organised.

Spot on.

English Rugby League is dead anyway, so who cares.





Thank god for us Australians and the Kiwi's who are able to provide our old talent to prop up the competition in the UK.

like how you've started including the kiwis in your posts since the world cup final

Ah, the Kiwi's have always been proping up Super League you moron. Hell it was the Auckland Bulls winning Super League a few years ago.





Stop seeing what you want to see.

I'd like to see a couple of 'p's in the middle of propping for a start chuck.
