sorry bout the lack of pastage, my computer decided to break on me!

I thought the kiwis playedd well for the last hour, it was the first 20 minutes that got the game too far out of reach

they werent too impressed with "english" ref Clown (i always thought he was a kiwi)
Now they know how we feel!

Anyone know the penalty count?
If the Ref helped anyone it was the Kiwis.
He was rubbish but I think he tried his best to even the game up.
It is not published anywhere I can see.
Aussies went back 2 gears after 20 minutes.
Rlfanben I see that most NRL players do not agree with you
"An unpublished question in a Sun Herald newspaper player poll last weekend found that 68 per cent of NRL stars believed New Zealand were the team that posed the biggest threat to Australia at the end-of-season World Cup.



But after last night's Centenary Test, the 5 per cent who predicted the Kangaroos' greatest danger would be "themselves" appear closer to the money.

For the record, the other responses were England (16 per cent) and Tonga (11 per cent) but the 100 players polled might as well have nominated nuclear war, an alien invasion or the bubonic plague."

Does that mean that newspaper thinks only things like an alien invasion can stop Australia at the World Cup ? That's what I'd call rather complacent.

Robin_Bobbin_Along,

Methinks you may be right & that 'Rampant Disdain & Complacency is beginning to rule the Roost there at the Moment', as far as the SL is concerned in NRL circles!!

The Kangeroo's may just this time get the shock of their lives by underestimating England, which may prove to be a boon to us at the World Cup! Let's see, time will reveal all!

winkeyecool! Otherwise Black & Whites Forever!!
