| Quote TrentBarrett="TrentBarrett"We did have a quality Aussie coach in Tony Smith, the RFL should allow their coach to work at both club and international level like Stephen Kearney and Tim Sheens. Otherwise we will struggle to appoint a quality coach who would work purely for England.'"
Correct.

Don't talk wet lad. We've been getting spanked for nigh on 40 years, so tell how that has benefited the international game?

Good coaching can drastically improve a Rugby League team, Wigan is a prime example of that under Michael Maguire's reign and the same applies to Warrington and the influence of Tony Smith.

If im 100% honest with you "lad" I couldnt care less about the international game, but for those that do, Mcnamara is the worst coach England has had for years and the only way he'll get the elbow is if England get a real good hiding, thats what I meant.

You're right, but it's just not a great attitude. If we can get 40,000 on Saturday then that would still be a good crowd, just going to look daft in a 90,000 seater stadium.
I'm still going on Saturday, expecting us to lose but International RL is never going to improve if people have this attitude towards it.

Its a realistic attitude, il hold my hands up and admit that im not bothered about the international game, same with football. England are that far bhind Australia now I genuinley cannot see how it will ever improve, in fact it will get worse, *cough Salary cap cough*

Depends how you look at it and if you back it.
That could also read England stun Aussies live on national tv infront of biggest international rugby league crowd seen in Britain for 14 years (that's if it's bigger then the 2000 world cup final crowd at Old Trafford).
England will push them close on Saturday I reckon and the crowd will be around 45k. That would be a step in the right direction.

| The proof will be in the pudding, but I would have gone with four props. Madge made the mistake of only going with three props on occasions and we lost those matches. Gaz Carvell would have been in the squad for me.
Gaz Widdop to start is something that should have happened since day one.
Still I am really looking forward to this match. A game at Wembley, against the Aussies, seeing some of the best players in the world in action. I do love International RL.

Moaning that it is half full then not attending (or showing any interest besides posting an opinion about it on the internet..... oddly) is so contradictory it is unbelievable.
