It seems Bennett makes a few wrong choices for me, percival should be playing, adz was the obvious choice at 13, ratboy not in my team.

However you can't fault his results and choices. He sees things I can't in players and they play to his tactics perfectly.

NZ were probably the number one team and now we've won the series. Outstanding. I know it's here not in the southern hemisphere but they had a full team warm up against oz, we had half a team play France and without Sam burgess. Widdop and Gale.

Hats off.

Fans will always argue over who should and shouldn't have played but for me a clear message has come from this test series, England now have strength in depth, something we haven't had for a long time.

We're a long way off the next world cup but I'd like to think Bennett will build team around the new guys, dispensing of the likes of (dare I say) Roby, Hall, Graham, Watkins, et al. I would like to see a genuine goal kicker come in though as Connor is second choice at Hull, never mind England/GB!

Arguably the best national team we've had since mal Reilly's GB team that came so close to winning the world cup.

With such depth we could really win the next world cup,just wish everyone would get behind them rather than moaning which seems to be the RL fans way.

For once the rl made a super decision to appoint Bennett you can see how much the players want to give everything for him and I agree we've got best chance we've had in ages to win the world cup
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have

Yeah I would like to see him get more minutes.
Just seen an interview he did after the game, looks like he as a broken nose.
Could be the reason he only did ten minutes.

I believe it was, if you look he runs off the field sharply. In the celebration photo with the players and staff on the field, his shirt is absolutely covered in blood.

With burgess out that should push Thompson up to prop and give milner a full shot at 13 but who knows what plans go through bennetts head.

To me, with Greenwood coming in it seems like that's the plan. But as you say, who knows what Bennett will do.
