Pretty sure everyone is thinking the same thing, except maybe slater's mum and dad.

But I'm still excited to see Hayne and GI combining, which hopefully they will be. Hope they're on the same side of the field.

You say some really stupid shit.

How can the two centres be on the same side of the field?

Well they always were for a century you know, the backline traditionally has a blindside winger and the rest of the backs lined out on the other side. But yes things have been mixed up in the last 10 years or so and now usually you have a left and right centre. I dunno, I want to see hayne and GI on the same side of the field so maybe hayne could be a winger. Both draw so many defenders and are so good at passing and playmaking, it would just be guaranteed tries all night sending the ball their way.

Ok, so not only has Hayne played great footy at right centre, but he is also going to be lining up against Goodwin in the final, and your genius idea is to move him out to the wing?

If Slater being in keeps Tate out of the centres then I'm all for Billy at the back

Oh and this isn't RU mate. Centres in RL tend to play on different sides of the ruck

bullshit, Aussie is seen as an investment opportunity for the majority of kiwis. Your culture of bludgers makes it easy for hard working kiwis to fleece your system and come home with a bit of aussie coin..

Australia is seen as a soft touch and while you have the ' cant be stuffed' attitude, we'll exploit it..

now, where were we :cool:

I think you'll find the majority of people worldwide don't want to be a scaffolder or security guard.

I think you'll find the majority of people worldwide dont want to work at all, but the ones that have to, again, i think you find the majority of those people worldwide would be happy just to have a job.

I think Australia will win by 8. Score won't get higher than 20 from either side.

Would be good to see Australia walk up to the Haka again like the last world cup

I think the best thing Aussie could do is completely ignore it, go to their own 20 and do some drills. The Kiwi's will think they've been grossly insulted, and waste precious energy trying to retaliate to an imaginary slight.

What the f**k are you on about :?

Pre-emptive excuse for if Australia lose - "Oh, the players don't care, that's why they lost."

Only reason I can think of that someone would brag about their national side not being bothered enough to play hard in a World Cup final. :lol:

If they didn't care they wouldn't be there, they'd be out pig hunting or whatever Lyon does.

Rucks and scrums were contested, you got penalised for a voluntary tackle, and you were able to play the ball forward for years as well.

Putting Inglis and Hayne on one side also means that Daaaaaaaarius and Downy 1 are on the other side together.
