Australia v Samoa in the Rugby League WC Final is going the only way possible, though not, yet, a humiliation for the Samoans. The Aussies have dominated this format for what, 40, 50 years? We forget that League is the top sport on the east coast of Australia. When I was working in Sydney in 2011 the Union World Cup was on in NZ. On a Saturday there were two quarter finals, one with England one with Wales (both lost). A couple of my local colleagues joined me in a bar in Darling Harbour for the long afternoon to watch on a big screen. Neither had ever watched Union seriously before, but both were massive league fans.
Can England finish the autumn internationals on a high against a less than vintage edition of the All Blacks?
Dunno who the England scrum half is but 2 errors in first 5 minutes costs 7 points....
NZ don't look like a side in decline...

Apparently the England game plan was speed, aggression, physicality.
Nice one Eddie.

Can’t believe that Farrell would leave Ireland before the RWC, same for Edwards with Les Bleus
No way either would leave their current jobs.... and why would they to take over this shower....
Surprised that the scrum hal wasn't hooked earlier....
England look so pedestrian...

Jones should have gone ages ago, they won't change him now till after the World Cup. We have gone backwards since the last World Cup, but the consistency in giving away stupid penalties and losing the ball under the oppositions posts still remain intact. I'm fearful of what will happen to us at the World Cup. Can't see past Ireland or France
