Just watching he programme and a number if observaations:

91) How great to see a GB team with J Robonson A Farell G Conelley P Sculthorpe  K Radlinski all legends...where are the modern day heros>

A;so J Robisnon played a whole game and had moderate opportunities to score / make breaks..he is and has proven him self to be a world beater in RU is it that they are crap in defense or he has improved since his league days certainly wasn't the player in LG the RFU game made him out to be!!

One final point Odd watching Ruben Wiki play centre a "true RL legend" in every sence of the word.  Centre to Prop...not a path many take!

the union game overall isnt as fast as league they do have some very quick backs in the wingers fullbacks and outside centres but generally the other players arent that quick i remember watching a game and a big fat prop broke through and the commentator was screaming "oh what power and speed to go with it" he was doing 10 metres every 3 seconds or something i couldnt stop laughing :D :D :D
