Aussies Beat Brave England in RLWC2017 Opener : Fri Oct 27, 2017 11:16 am  

Aussies Beat Brave England in RLWC2017 Opener





The story of one hundred and nine years of history, between the two oldest rugby league playing nations, turned the next page as Australia welcomed England to the opening game of the 2017 World Cup.

 

Mal Meninga's cast iron Aussie favourites were up against Wayne Bennett's cream of Super League with the hopes of both nations resting on their shoulders. 

 

The World Cup wouldn't be won today, but the result would give us a clear indication of how competitive the latter stages of the competition would be.

'Great defence, always wins games, y'only have to score one more point than them. If tha does, tha'll win, if that doesn't tha'll lose, learn from it, more than the win last week.'. Peter Fox, 1980.

Overall a decent game. Not the best result in numbers, of course the 1st half was (a little) disappointing, but data and game were promising as the 2nd half developed. As Gale and Widdop gel, things should improve. Roby was excellent in taking us forward, backs except for Lomax were excellent.
Ironically Burgess being out might be a positive for now, as there is a spot to fight for there now. Lads will step up. England have lots of depth.
Same squad, except for maybe Ratchford in, Bateman/Currie to 2nd row?

You didn't consider that avoiding a Rugby League forum for the day might be a good idea? :roll:

I made the mistake of coming on to look at the RAB Sponsorship, and not to look at any other posts or pages.

If you think it was predictable that some idiot would be so crass as to post a thread TITLE stating "Aussies beat brave England", on the BULLS forum, then maybe I credit people with possession of more brain cells than perhaps I ought.

I see that they've now started titling threads "RLWC2017 - Fiji v. USA Report" as anyone with half a brain would have done from the start

That's fair. I did think 'OH'.......maybe it's agreed? Clearly not.

It did make me smile though! :oops:
