Well, getting shafted by O'Keefe early (Kellaway turnover/Ikitau being blocked by Slade). But England clearly better team. England should romp this by 30.
Edit: Add Lawrence being wrong side of ruck tripping players trying to clear, and Earl changing his line to impede Pietsch. But sure, no home town favouritism here.
Edit2: BOK looking at Curry unconscious on the floor, and not blowing play up until Rob Valetini told him to highlights how incapable he really is. Bring back Bryce Lawrence levels of ****.

Or not. Aus much the better side now and there's only one point in it.

Well FMD Aussie in front at half time wasn't on the Bingo card 20 mins ago

As a famous football manager almost said, 'Boys, it's England'. But at least he had wait until half time.

Well, did not expect to be ahead at the half, thats for sure.
Not sure Aus are the better side just yet, certainly seem to be the team most keen to attack though - did the homework on how to beat Englands Rush defence, and Tate coming on with snipes around the ruck certainly helped - no coincidence the more fluid play has started with Gordon going off.
edit: and Gordon is back on, expect slow ball again.
I was hoping I'd have this impact when I made the comment

Yeah this has turned into everything I hate about Borthwick. Aussies taking advantage as England keep coughing the ball up.

Hmm, looked a clear no try to me. But maybe it wakes England up (probably not).

Probably the different coloured glasses we are wearing - I thought it pretty clear there was separation for the 2nd try of England's

I thought we had been improving, but we've been outclassed today since scoring those two early tries. I was told that this isn't supposed to be an especially good Austalian side, but they're looking good for a final winning margin of 20+ this afternoon.
EDIT
Timing, as they say. @ripper868 and me are trying to outdo each other today.

Think a draw would be fairest result tbh.
Especially as Walalbies are now just doing box kicks as well
