If England are involved it'll of course be one average team. Wallabies won that vs England blowing it.

Bring on the (Irish, Scottish and Welsh) Lions ;)
Failed to take the restart and close out the game, it’s what good teams do. Yes Aus took the opportunity but should never have been offered it.

Same as England should of never been offered it after Kellaway's try.

I'm of course buzzing at the moment, and it's easy to throw about the 2 average teams thing, which they are, but that doesn't detract from what ended up being a game that had pretty much every facet of rugby within it.

Yeah definitely a good one for the neutrals and better entertainment than seeing seven forwards come on after 60 minutes

Jesus ****.

Didn't see the game live and now don't have much inclination to catch a replay.

First Wobbly win at Twickenham since, what, 2015 WC? Kudos to them, but England regressing at a rate of knots.

If nothing else mate, watch the last 15 minutes of insanity.
and if really nothing else, watch from 74 minutes on.

Sua'ali'i is obviously a real talent but rugby people raving about him need to realise that he’s probably not a top 10 back in the NRL

If only RA hadn’t pissed off Twiggy, they wouldn’t be broke & could get some of the others or at least retain some of their own

Not a top 10 back in the NRL...but played origin...the pinnacle of RL. OK.

And he played pretty well for his first pro rugby game, so think folks are right to have a bit of hope about what he can bring, and some of that is probably relief he may not be a total bust.

He played one game as a controversial selection

Very talented but he wasn’t a top 10 back yet

No way he was going to be a bust though

Probably overpaid but a real talent

Imagine how well they’d go if they had half a dozen NRL players instead of just the one.

the young bloke who scored the last try looks genuinely fast though. Is he Peter Jorgensen’s young bloke?
