Any news on whether the Kiwi's are going to pick the dropped Warrior players ?

Apparently not.

I understand and applaud the strong stance, but it certainly takes away from the game and the Aussies won't be disappointed that the likes of Matulino will be missing.

 

[Burns]

Been waiting a long time for this match. It's a shame the Kiwis wont be able to play a full strength team due to injuries and what not. That said, Australia were woeful last year with a pretty similar team to that named.

It'll be close, but Kiwis to win due to the better forward pack.

 

[mozza91]

Who's gonna play in the halves with Johnson?

 

[diggo]

Kiwi's have a really impressive forward pack despite the loss of Matulino & Mannering.

Australia's back line just has too much class however which should see them win comfortably. Really loving the centre/wing combo we have. All four of them 100kg+, causing the Kiwi edges all kinds of problems here. From memory, last year our biggest problem was our edge defenders (Alex Johnston in particular). I also think choosing Boyd over Inglis at fullback was the right choice.

 

[no name]

Is it unAustralian to back against Australia?

$4 was way too tempting.

 

[user_nat]

Who's gonna play in the halves with Johnson?

Would have to be Nikorima from that squad. Pretty sizeable drop from Foran.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

The only time the Kangaroos have looked decent in the past 7 years is when Hayne has played for them


Kiwi's by 18

 

[slamminsam246]

Would have to be Nikorima from that squad. Pretty sizeable drop from Foran.

Or the Hiku experiment will continue. Either way a massive drop

 

[Rhino_NQ]

sure there will be plenty of heart from the kiwis...only to be broken by lewis brown when he does something ridiculous mistaking himself for a halfback

 

[jamaman]

JT might put a dent in the Kiwis!

 

[Rhyno]

It's a joke that Scott and Jennings aren't playing for Australia

 

[Vic Mackey]

Can't believe Austin missed a spot in the Jillaroos

 

[Hutty1986]

Will be good to have something resembling a full-strength side v the Kiwis. Aussies by 14

 

[Grapple]

Inglis to single handedly beat the jillaroos.

 

[Clifferd]

Hopefully Semi learns the words to the anthem before kick off

 

[Rhyno]

Nz 26-16

Semi to score 3 try's

 

[kia ora storm]

Kiwis by 8...
