Special mention to the front row for sticking in there and trying to do the job until the end; it isn't their fault they are not yet ready for international rugby.

EDIT: Yeh no Burgess, this may be QLD bias, but he still doesn't do it for me. Gets bitch slapped around the rucks, takes the wrong options, and can't pass - 2 of his behind the back flick passes went to ground, plus many balls at Coopers head and feet.

Bit dissapointing Horne hasn't had a lot to do in attack though

3 Burgess - the guy is a tease, struggles along and then shows what he can do
2 Mitchell - The guy gets better and better
1 Cooper - his threat gave Burgess some great space.

LOL I would have to go with Cooper then. Nobody else really stood out individually. Maybe Burgess. Collectively the scrambling defence at the line was great though.

EDIT:

3. Burgess. Cut the Poms to shreds.
2. Pocock. Tackled and rucked himself to a standstill.
1. Cooper. Dangerous. Always something on. Curious to see how he goes against the Boks and All Blacks.

Nathan Sharpe also had another good game and was right up there.

3. Cooper. Masterclass display
2. Burgess. Now will the critics please desist
1. O'Connor. Classy display, especially first half.

1. Burgess (as other have said, suprisingly..)

Burgess still can't pass to save his life, but the rest of his game was good this time, fair play.

Special mention to Daley, Ma'afu, Slipper and Fainga'a. I know it's Australian to root for the underdog (and they were definitely the underdog come scrum time). They were absolutly destroyed in the scrum but never put they heads down and kept digging in. Ruck and line defense was courageous. This game will be immense for their development despite the hiding.

Reds trolls dissing Burgess are merely Reds trolls who would have dissed anyone.
