England will go out to face the Wallabies in Sydney on Saturday in this Cook Cup, 2nd test match, knowing that defeat will place Head Coach, Martin Johnson, under extreme pressure. Having lost the first test last week in Perth, after dominating the scrum, England will need to be able to compete in every aspect of the game if they are going to reverse the situation, against an Australian team who are nothing short as rampant right now. The Bookmakers do not give England any chance at all, Ladbrokes for instance quote Australia at a massive 1/4 odds on and only give England an 11/4 chance.

The simple truth is that England struggle for ideas once first phase is over, they won more than their fair share of ball at the breakdowns and set pieces last week to win the match, but possession was squandered with an alarming amount of regularity, due mainly to the lack of ideas and unrehearsed moves. In the end, England just kicked the ball back to the Wallabies more often than not thus allowing the Australian backs, led by the outstanding Quade Cooper at Fly Half, to excel and produce try threatening moves time and time again. In the event the 27-17 result flattered England enormously, but it is extremely hard to see them improving on it this week. We see it as a big win for Australia and would back an Australian victory of between 11-20 points at 5/2 with Ladbrokes Bookmakers.
Johnson has made two changes for the match, bringing in the exciting Ben Youngs for Danny Care at Scrum Half and Courtenay Laws at lock to replace Simon Shaw. Australia too will make a significant change bringing in usual Fly Half, Matt Giteau to Inside Centre. Giteau has a nasty habit of scoring tries against England and looks like a good bet to us at 12/1 with Ladbrokes.com to score the opening try in this match.
