Tommy Makinson scored a record five tries as England dominated Papua New Guinea to move into the last four

“That first 30 minutes, we were pretty good … it set the tone for the game, really.“I’m loving it here [back in England, after his move to Australia and the Brisbane Broncos].

“It wasn’t really about PNG. It was more about us. We wanted to start well, to be relentless, to be England. “Waney just likes us to be urgent … get in there and do it together … we held Papua New Guinea in their own half for the first few sets, and we got the first few tries off the back of that. Waney said, it was the shortest half-time speech he’s ever done. He’s a perfectionist like most coaches … we knew we had another 40 minutes and we wanted to be tough, relentless and clinical.

“I was really impressed with Burgess, really really good … I’ve got good players on the bench, we’re in a good place.”

Church of England should allow same-sex marriage, says Bishop of OxfordSteven Croft apologises for church’s history on LGBTQ+ rights, but calls for ‘love and respect for those who take different views’ The whole foundation of the CoE was so Henry VIII could marry who he wanted…so it makes sense if you follow that thinking 😊 He’s arguing for the end of the church. Christianity is the eternal marriage of the God human man Christ with the God human woman church. The Bishop of Oxford is calling for the two to be treated as if they are the same - which logically is the end of the church.- Maybe we can convince the Muslim faith to be just as flexible in their approach to same sex relationships.
