    Trial vs Broncos

    As a "foundation" supporter, I know too well, what a bad idea getting excited at the start of a season is. Every year, every team in the comp, starts with a bit of optimism. But here I go again. What I liked: Tompkins: He has brought two things into the warriors. One is a step that can...

    Confirmed USA Teams for 2014

    I only have a very vague idea of the reasons for the split. But in terms of actual clubs/teams in the US, how many would there be total? Are we talking 10-20 in the whole US or are there smaller, teams/clubs that feed into the clubs listed above? Sounds all pretty small.

    9's

    I only watched two games in total. The warriors last on day 1 and the the last 3 minutes of the semi. And obviously didn't go. So can't really comment on the game. Noted that there was a lot less people dressed up than at the Wellington 7's. It must be that a lot of people went to actually...

    Auckland Nines News

    No I applaud them reading the riot act. At 6.00pm on the Friday of the Wellington 7's the railway station looked like a massive triage station for a WWI battle. The press gave the organisers a bit of a serve. Now, if LEAGUE has a similar result, it will be a major, major assault in the...

    Congratulations New Zealand.

    My fear now is that we get a lopsided final due to the Kiwis being smashed and bashed in that game and not being able to get up for the final. Maybe couple changes might freshen the team. What a great tournament. Pity noone in NZ watching it to date.

    '13 WC | Semi Final | New Zealand 20-18 England | Wembley

    I thought this. I thought it was an absolute classic match. The best since the 1989 NRL GF or the second test GB v Oz in 1992. There were so many "moments" in this match. So many "what ifs". I come into work this morning and all people are talking about is the Bore Blacks. Might have to...

    France to tour NZ in 2015

    If they do, they should play Auckland, Wellington, Canterbury (south Island) and maybe Waikato, NZ Residents and one test v Kiwis. That would be great for the local comps. Players would line up for provincial teams and the chance to play France, great for France as well.

    World Cup Momentum

    The RLWC 2013 seems to be exceeding everyones expectations in terms of crowds, publicity and competative games. Has our international game finally turned a corner? I remind myself and everyone who will listen, of the time I was living in Sydney in 1987. Two mates asked me if I wanted to go...

    Stars get behind England

    He is a Sheffield Wednesday Fan isn't he?

    Kiwis news

    Here it is in full. Any guesses as to what it means? RTS would be in the test side, as would Kieron Foran. They would probably play SBW. So what combinations are they trying to build here? Is it just the players who haven't had much footy. i.e. in teams that didn't make finals or need...

    Lowrie gone

    Ben Henry available again next year I suppose. Not sure where he fits in. Certainly not that big, like Taylor, but I suppose as long as they get through the work. Henry would offer more in attack than Lowrie. Good luck to him at the Broncos. They seem to be trying to buy every spare part...

    Is Sonny Bill bigger than the game ?

    he retired from playing last year Very good.

    Lowrie gone

    The fact he seemed a good bloke on RadioSport didn't stop me screaming at the TV during the Warriors game and wondering what Elliot was doing picking him. He had a good part to his game in that he was a good defensive player. He just gave away a lot of penalties. Like Luck, he was useless in...

    Is Sonny Bill bigger than the game ?

    Couldn't agree more. The cemetary is full of men we can't do without! Union in NZ survived George Nepia's defection to League, and Oz Rugby the countless conversions to the great game (unfortunately). SBW will shoot off back to yawnion next year and we will continue to be the superior sport...

    SBW available for WCC

    Fast Eddie, for once I agree with something you've said. It is on the BBC website and I even checked the New York Times website. I just can't work out whether this is a jackup, planned from day one and the NZRL is in on it, or its just some random behaviour. Whatever it is, it is truely...

    SBW available for WCC

    Well I have had plenty to say on SBW and pretty clear I am not a fan of the person. The player is good, but not as good as he is made out to be. No player, is that good. I've moved through stages on this. Disbelief, through to confusion (i.e. is he really that dumb and flippant) to...

    Kiwi squad for the WC defence!

    WHAT! Depends where and who you are mate. In NZ, yes, amongst a misguided and totally patriotic public, who rely on a single team to keep their self esteem up. Rugby, is the main sport in only NZ and the pacific islands. Elsewhere, like league, is a second and third rate sport. In Oz, Rugby is...

    WC Train on-squad

    Wow, how can I compete with such an intellect. Sorry for trying. Just a game to you maybe. I can't ever remember a time when I haven't been involved in the sport. For me, its an important part of my life. For you its a game. Like monopoly. You probably didn't turn up to training because it was...
