9`s World Cup : Fri Oct 18, 2019 9:59 am  

Anyone managed to watch any of it yet?

Have not had the chance to catch any games throughout this morning, but will be throughout the early hours tomorrow.

Has Reece had a chance to get on the field yet?

Reece didn't play.

England looked good. Aussies better.
Cook Islands were surprisingly good.

England Ladies were really good but again the Aussies look class.

Only 1 game each today. Big tests come tomorrow.

Poor selection for England ,Burgess ,Watts ,Sutton cracking players in the 13 a side ,but like carthorses in this comp ,been better to pack team out with backs to have a chance against the big boys .

He's still living off a couple of good performances many seasons back. Not even in top 10 Super League wingers these days. As for Hall

Makinson isn't that quick but at least he has some athleticism about him.
