Suppose it's the other side of the coin of having no video ref, but it looked a terrible decision, especially considering there was an in-goal official pretty much on the spot.

BTW, is it my imagination, or wasn't there talk of England sending a team to the Nines? Whatever, it never happened.

It was the World 9's that England did play in before the full tour of NZ and PNG in the autumn, when Sam Tomkins was one of the best in the whole tournament, but Wayne Bennett chose not to pick him for any of the Internationals, amongst other strange decisions the Coach came up with.
If I remember, the 9's was played at Bankwest, Parramatta's new stadium ?

Heh, yeah, thanks, it's all coming back to me now! :lol:

Sam Tomkins certainly looked a class above anyone else in the squad, and as for Bennett, the least said the better.
