The Worst England/GB team in memory?

Probably not the best time to post this after convincing win albeit against the French but looking at the list of players for England it seems like they’re just giving caps to anyone who is eligible these days? How many of these players would secure a contract in the NRL? While Tonga and Samoa possess teams full of NRL stars.

The weakest team in my lifetime anyway.

Slightly unfair given England's NRL contingent and many of the best players weren't available.

Only 4/5 of that team today are in England's best 17.

But isn’t that the problem, a few players missing and look how we scrap the barrel, Australia have 2 or 3 starting thirteens that is better than us!

Not sure I get what the point was to be honest. Boring game as well, only livened when France had England rattled in the 2nd half.

Major tactic seemed to be lying on rather than making the game faster! Don't see that beating any southern hemisphere side.

Three of England's first four tries should have been disallowed IMO

I can imagine.I wouldn't have watched anyway, expecting it to be just that- boring.
