2009 Four-Nations..Round 2..England v Australia..

[@paulrichardson5892]

i have watched smioth over the years and duriong the game, in walking off the field interviews ,i have never seen him breathing heavy. what a massive engine..

[@CosmicOnion]

I was a mascot for Australia this game, brings back memories wow

[@Andrew-wv6fy]

The best side of any rugby code

[@robboxify]

Even at this stage of his career Burgess was giving the Aussie forwards so many problems in attack and defence. Bit of a preview as to what he would do in the NRL over the next 8 years

[@donstones2765]

Thanks Shaun again for the uploads. Thank goodness for half time, at least the poms came out playing like footy players, not like the sooks they were becoming at the end of the 1st half. I can't see the sense in the mentalities of if I can't win then I can hurt em. It just shows the difference between 1st rate and 2nd rate players. Though after loosing for over 30 years I'd probably be a bit pissed to.

Amazing forward pack for England. Distinctly average backs in the main. Imagine Aus 1-7 playing behind that English 8-13

[@gloryglory5688]

I’d prefer the Aussie pack, they won

[@iangrantham8300]

Burgess MAY have scored the first English try, but it was with the compliments of the referee giving a dubious off side ruling and it is interesting to note the BBC did NOT replay that!

[@paulrichardson5892]

the difference is fitness. its always the case nrl is a harder comp. if you not fit every aspect of your game is below par.

[@glensmillie5101]

In rarified form are our members of the commentary team 😅

[@dagevolt_rexx8599]

thank you

[@glensmillie5101]

Wow 😲 GI WAS FAST!

[@Sq12Sq22u22]

I dont think the referee was bad, but I wouldnt say he was good....he was certainly biased and played it that way.

[@harryhatter2962]

It has to be said that the second try of the English should not have happened as a penalty to Australia should have been the verdict after Slater was pushed over the line, it was clean that his ball carrying arm was on the ground and therefore the tackle completed!

[@paulrichardson5892]

inglis, slater, thurston lockyer, brits had no hope.

[@Alex-jx2zp]

And Hayne.

[@Sq12Sq22u22]

Blatant forward pass Westwood to Ellis........

[@paulrichardson5892]

and cameron smith. !

[@tobinsarttrading1733]

12-26 commentator is completely deluded “…we’ve got a game!”

[@iangrantham8300]

How can 6 nile with 62% of the ball be relective of 26 nil with 60% of the ball? I just dont understand that comment.

[@iangrantham8300]

It's funny how they replayed the try over and over but could not replay the offside...funny that.

[@roryt1983]

Cry more

[@glensmillie5101]

Aye, an all too similar offence on behalf of our officiates also, bloody travesty for the spirit of the game 😢

[@glensmillie5101]

​@@roryt1983would you cry for me?😅

[@iangrantham8300]

And they can ALSO replay what WASNT a knock on a couple of times.....very sus.

[@iangrantham8300]

as the comentator said..LOOK AT THE SCORE LINE...26 - 12.....ha ha

[@iangrantham8300]

GOOG grief ...late in the game this referee gave away any pretense that he wasnt biassed..just dreadful stuff.

[@iangrantham8300]

I am NOT trying to be funny, but it IS hard to fathom some of the penalties!

[@Baskerville22]

It's "Inglis", not "English"

[@adamngangan7416]

1:34:00

[@Sq12Sq22u22]

The English STILL LOST by a margin in percentages of ALMOST 100% more! So the comments were just plain stupid and with the assistance of the referee the English came back from zip..which was well done....but not representative of the final score.

[@benderx8837]

THE FORGETTABLES LOSE AGAIN What a failure burgess turned out to be. ha aussie beat poms and ref.embarrassing

[@robboxify]

yeah he was hopeless in the NRL wasn't he

[@benderx8837]

[@glensmillie5101]

C'mon pal, rigged?? ... it's all rigged..

[@iangrantham1003]

Referee was dreadful. Very biased.

[@glensmillie5101]

Awful..worse than a bias. He's an embarrassment to his profession.
