Great news that the game is at Leigh. Unless it is from short blindsides or kicks I think England's best chance is up the middle al a the first game.
I see Tom as being a more direct less ability Burgess like the Leeds Burgess. He certainly has the size. George seems to have a little more to his running game. The Aussies lads looked like they could handle the hard yard type runs but where George, Milner and Burke threw something extra into the mix they struggled.
I hope Ganson is not refereeing this one

Sounds like a wonderful performance from England, btw did the Australians do much sledging ?

No Eclipse. The start of the 2nd half they came out fired up and really started putting 110% in and they seem to scream like banshees as a tactic when they rush defence.
Totally different game under a different official. Fewer penalties, fewer fouls, clean faster flowing game with both teams making long breaks. The fans saw lots of rugby not somebody starring for the lead role in a Hitler Biop.

At times TEW IMO, the Aussie lads appared totally broken mentally. It was akin to how England have been for the last 30 years but reversed.
