Well despite the fact you revel that GB lost you didn't make anyone aware that this post would be a spoiler for those waiting for a more decent time to catch it on tv

Mind you I thought exactly the same. We lost because of McGillvary.

First he decided to keep hold when there was support on his inside from Hardaker after great play put him away then the spectacular dive and dropped ball in the motion.

I must have missed that, If I had seen it the neighbours would have known about it :D , I turned it off after 47 minutes I was that bored and it had already been spoilt for me by the RFL on Facebook.

The RFL sure have managed to kill off what GB meant just so they could have a shitty world cup, There's deffo something missing whether that be passion or pride in the shirt I don't know but it just didn't feel like the big special occasion that it used to be, The lack of intensity is unbelievable or could it just be down to crap standard of Rugby being played in the modern era

My thoughts,pretty much Meds,it’s just not the same at all,plus crap standard and poor selection all adds up to disinterest for me

Jesus, I just watched the highlights, What a pathetic attempt, Why didn't he just barge over, He's big enough, Neither him or Hall should start next week, Would rather put up with Burgess and Grace than watch that again

Just seen it. Shocking decision to fly in. When all he had to do was a Bateman and go low.

The whole selection process was poor from the outset,why was Hall certainly near the squad other than he saved on an air fare,I’m no fan of Grace and indeed think he would have been destroyed by Tonga at least he had pace,as for Coote,magilvary again players who shouldn’t have been there,Coote has been exposed for me as an average player but one who plays very well in Holbrooks St Helens side.

As for Great Britain lions,is it just after 12 years out of commission the concept has reached its natural end?
