What's a "complete myth"?

A myth is an unproved or false collective belief that is used to justify a social bias.

Therefore a complete myth is one that is 100% unproven or false.

Australia by 16 i'm afraid...Lockyer's last game they all will be firing for his send off

Still we can give ourselves a small chance if we give him & Thurston less space to work.

This is the best chance that we have had in my memory watching RL!

the team is good enough. and the difference is 'this time' is that they know they are.

We should have beaten them at Wembley, all be it for two game changing decisions and i think we would have done.

NZ should have been down to 11 men at the weekend, and we still hammered them with 13.

This is the time people on here started looking forward and not back!

Get to the final and support the boys to a historical win. i recon well do em...

I shouldn't have expected any better than that I suppose.

No.

I’ve been away for a week or so and just got home to watch the Wembley and KC games on Sky+

I think England will win the final

Re: IS it finally our year? : Mon Nov 14, 2011 9:00 pm  

at Wembley we were the stronger team for long periods. Once we lost Graham, Ellis and Peacock it was inevitably going to be the Aussies' day. Once the referee decided not to award us anything it was game over.

If we keep a fully fit pack, and we get a fair crack of the refereeing whip - then we have a great chance.

They will come out flying trying to blow us off the park early. If we can stick with them in the early stages, then I am pretty confident.

My sentiments exactly , it drives me nuts every time we play them , they target our playmakers , whereas we just seem to stand back and admire there's

Anybody can look world class given time and space , quite simply make sure the 1 st time either of them touches the ball , they get tackled with it , from then on the pressure alone will do the job , and if we do get our hands on them , make it count , they do , as Sam can attest to , there was no quarter given to him last week was there
