First Test: GB&I 18 Australia 22

Draken · 11-10-2003, 09:26 AM

Grrr same old story! Our best prop sent off after 12 seconds (hey it was only a mis-timed tackle!) and we STILL looked the better team - then with 4 minutes left we let them run straight through us on the 5th tackle.

Damn damn damn! (wasn't quite the words I used on Saturday night....). Still with the full 13 we can stuff them at Hull then take them to a decider in the 3rd Test....hope so, I've got tickets for that one!

And we lost the second test 23-20 after being 20-8 up! Am choked. Ah well, I'll still go to the 3rd Test, see if we can avoid a whitewash at least.

Maybe this should be in the venting thread

When was the last time GB&I won a series against the Kangaroos?

More generally, what do you think about the impact of professionalism in Union on the League code?
