Australia vs New Zealand Match Thread

Really late. What a game though.

AUS on the path to take a win.

 No try as expected.

 Look at the intensity, the work rate, the volume, it does not stop.

 You're talking about rugby league right?

That game was a bit disappointing. Why is Shuan Johnson only allowed to carry the ball in the last play? So frustrating!

 This game exhibits the keys for excellence: power, skills, endurance, control and a will to make the game dynamic.

Have you been to a rugby league game?

Attending? No. That is why tv broadcasts exist.

 I have. One was a NRL game between rival clubs and the other was a State of Origin, in fact it was the first of three played earlier this year.
Now if you get off your pompous high horse and had the opportunity to watch a live game the first thing you'll notice is that League as we call it over here is made for TV.
The second thing you'll notice is that it's a boring game.
Under it's rules it cannot be anything else.
and it has nothing to do with the excellent men...

 ...Dense stick to knitting you big girls blouse...  

 Boring? As boring as the typical SA rugby? Some might prefer games when they are played like the last SA vs AUS. It is a matter of opinion.

Nevertheless, as stated, the game displays what it takes to play winner rugby.
