2017 RLWC - C - W1 - PNG 50-6 WAL @ Port Moresby

[Pedge1971]

Just on 15,000, not bad. This joint looks like it could hold 30k if they spent a few kina on it.

It sounds like 40 thousand!

Is there a QF or SF in Port Moresby?

Don't think so.

If they get a QF (highly likely) it will be in Melbourne. If they win that the semi is at Mt Smart.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Ahh that was dumb. Ruined a great try

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

So far Wales is tier 4.

Shame. You would give them a big show there and they might be flat out drawing that in Melb or Auckland.

Some of the penalties they have given away you would not see in U6's..

 

[_snafu_]

lol

Lol

Gooooo Wales....!!!!!!!!

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Oh tier 3 now. They managed a try against PNG.

 

[Coastbloke]

On the bright side PNG scored a bigger margin against Wales than the Kangaroos did in 2000...

I see. I only saw the last quarter. Surprised by the result though. I just assumed Wales would be ok. I guess its been a long time since the days of Jonathan Davies.

 

[Storm13]

Haha got my only bet win on Grace scoring.

Wales are missing their 6 or 7 best players, pretty much all their first grade players are out. This team is just a bunch of old journeymen and young kids, and two Aussie ringers wearing #4 and #7 who let in 6 tries between them. TBH a full strength Wales team would've given PNG a shake here.

 

[Evil Homer]

Wales also have Fiji up next in Townsville.

Will be looking forward to their match against Ireland I reckon.

Ireland's squad is pretty handy, don't take them lightly.

 

[Coastbloke]

Serious note. How many players were missing for Wales. Ben Flower? Tyson Frizzel realised he liked VB more than Blorenge Pale Ale..

Few injuries will hurt them though. Pretty thin.

Ben Flower, Gil Dudson, Lloyd White, Rhys Evans, Larne Patrick, all first graders and pretty good ones, plus Ollie Olds who plays in the Queensland Cup. Would've made a huge difference here.

Well thats what I was expecting. Very surprised with Wales made to look like shit.
