Great win by NZ... some of the players today being shown up for the hacks they are which is always good. We severely missed the presence of Price tonight.

Amazing finish to a very unusual competition.

[Dogs Of War]

Good stuff, had $100 on NZ earlier this year when I saw then at $6 to win. I thought it was good value then. Very happy about the result. Will chuck it all on the Dogs to win the comp now!

Funniest thing I've ever seen, the World Cup is so predictable ??????
International RL is dead ?????
Thank you Kiwis for shoving it up the critics.

I might be wrong but even if it is passive offside against nz doesn't it come off Williams leg first which places it against aus in the first place

 

[kia ora storm]

Bigger choke than Storm...brilliant.

 

[Eelectrica]

Congrats NZ. Well deserved win. Enjoy your moment, you've earned it.
You guys wanted it more. We made too many critical mistakes.

I like how when Monaghan stripped Harrison of the ball it was poor carry but when Laffranchi accidentally knocked the ball out of Benjis hand it was a strip and play on.

f**k me in all my years I have never seen such a biased performance by a referee

 

[Angry_eel]

Slater FAIL!!!!

 

[Johns Magic]

[kia ora storm]

Wayne Bennett...the new god of NZ !!!.

People blaming the ref are idiots, NZ hit em in the mouth and the Aussies choked, good job NZ

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Well done Kiwis. Suck sh1t Ricky.

Bigger choke than Storm...brilliant.

Uhh.... no.

It will be decades before any team chokes to the degree the Storm did.

 

[Radioactive Man]

A great night for International footy.
