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

[Cold Roses]

Goodwin's defense was exposed every time that went to that side. Not many changes necessary- but he is 1 of them for sure.

What's the story with Pritchard?

Hoping like hell he's fit. ( Pritchard )

Can't see Kearney dropping Goodwin now unfortunately.

Locke looks like a nightmare waiting to happen under the high ball. Despite any other faults he may have, Hoffman is surely a better bet at Fb?

Moa in for Kasiano. Kas just looks out of form unfortunately whereas Moa is full of spit and fire and hard running.

 

[Joker's Wild]

Apparently SBW got dominated in every single facet tonight according to our LU panel of armchair experts

I thought he was pretty quiet until the last 20 min tbh. He was unlucky to have that knock on called against him, that was all arm

 

[undertaker]

Burned.

Suck a dick Minto

:lol:

 

[Dark Chook]

Sam Burgess easy the best,

commiserations to the poms but its an 80 min game & that's the way we play it down under....

Kiwis have some changes begging, Moa for Kassiano & Glenn in for Goodwin. Moa is just better, Glenn has heaps of centre experience with the Broncos. Hopefully the beast makes it back next week.

Also Pritchard in for Taylor & we should have half a chance against Oz.

1) Taylor will never be dropped no matter how ineffective he is.

2) Glenn and Goodwin both played last night so not sure how one can replace the other.

Pritchard for Goodwin, moving Glenn/Mannering to the centres is about as good as you're going to get.

Replay of the game right now on 7Mate

 

[shiznit]

News coming out that RTS may have broken his leg...

Massive loss if true...

 

[undertaker]

time to relive that epic last 10 mins.

And just as I type, they just showed Hall nearly intercepting Locke's pass

 

[LatK7]

Had a quick read of the paper while the wife got coffee. Mentioned that the Eng vs Fiji pool game got 2.2mil viewers while the Eng vs Arg Union game got 510,000 the same weekend. Curious to see what the viewing figures for this game was. Hope it was big, the teams and game deserve it.

Can anyone confirm those ratings?

That's a massive difference...

Huge, huge loss. I think you bloke missed Manu last night, his ability to get a good start to a set of six is very important to your go forward.

Dude, you need to stop trying to hide your blatant homosexuality by using these anti-gay slurs. It is not PC. But if Cummins really is a gay homosexual, and you want to thank him for helping the Kiwis over the line, then offer to slobber on his knob. But be sure he is homosexual, otherwise it could be awkward.

thanks for the advice, ernie.

now, back to molesting your hand...

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Kangaroos have been woeful this campaign,Kiwis could beat them and it wouldn't be a surprise

thanks for the advice, ernie.

now, back to molesting your hand...

the only molesting of my hand you will be doing is with the bridge of your nose, as it viciously splatters itself on my iron fist.

 

[Misanthrope]

Why is he attacking your fist with his nose?

 

[Ernest the Sheep]

Why is he attacking your fist with his nose?

I don't know. He could have a hand fetish? Ask him.

If true, RTS is an absolute beast considering his spirited kick return in the 78th minute.

:shock:

ooooh, sounds like fun..;-)

RTS has been cleared of a broken leg, he should be good to go..

[Jack Deth]

Nope. I honestly don't know how you handle being English. It must be tough.

You get used to it. I am already over it and getting ready to cheer on the Kiwis

 

[WireMan]

Nope. I honestly don't know how you handle being English. It must be tough.

An unshakable (and correct) belief that we are better.

No sports game or an opinion of a foreigner is going to change that.

You wouldn't get it, you're just an Aussie... ;-)
