to be honest i can see NZ repeating the 2006 all golds tour of hell
Flat? His made more meters than any other Broncos player this year.:crazy:
Hodges has been flat and should be replaced by J Moris.
Flat? His made more meters than any other Broncos player this year.
2580 meters in 18 games (143 per game).
Compared to J Morris' 1849 meters in 21 games (88 per game).
It's also more than Jennings 1925 in 19 games.
AND more per game than Inglis' 2689 in 22 games (122per game).
You and me have very different opinions on flat. I couldn't actually find any centres with more meters.
Although his only scored 3 tries, but there are plenty of other people in the Aussie backline to score tries.
The point was more that "flat" players don't usually move alot.Metres isn't a true indication of form.
He was absolutely taken to school by Jarrod Croker this year. Now I've got big wraps on Croker, but in no way should a rookie be outperforming the supposed "best centre in the world" by such a great margin.
Hodges is very, very, VERY lucky to be touring.
That was 2007. In 2006 we beat you guys twice.to be honest i can see NZ repeating the 2006 all golds tour of hell

League is a game of meters. If your not going forward, your not going to win. But yeah, there is more to it than just that. It's an easy stat to quote though.
If you watch enough Brisbane games you would know there are few players more valuable.
Really the whole Brisbane team were taken to school and smashed that day.
Im very curious to see England vs NZ. Both teams will have alot of young players in the side and both will go in with no fear. Could be a classic.
I'm looking forward to it to. It will make for a great final. I have no doubt we'll be playing the Poms in that game.
