2017 RLWC - A - W3 - AUS 34-0 LBN @ Sydney

[KeepingTheFaith]

Lebanon's spirit is extremely impressive.

That should have been a send off

You wonder what it takes these days. After McKinnon and we still slap lifting with an arm between the legs with a wet lettuce, and reward next week's opposition rather than this week's.

And on the game...
Great defense. Lebanon have been so impressive.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Australia drop the ball - penalty.

Just as Lebanon were threatening a comeback too.

A comeback?

That should have been a send off

This referee is all over Aussies cocks so he gets more games in the tournament...im sure you will find that he actually put the Lebanese player on report for putting himself in that position.

 

[King hit]

Australia really need to lift their attitude. Some very basic mistakes and they haven’t bothered picking the ball up from Lebanon kicks. The Woods spear tackle really is the icing of it.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Moses coming from the field after being systematically targeted for termination by the opposition for 70 minutes.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Someone should pants the referee to reveal those green and gold undies.

The crowd robbed of an even contest by blatant cheating.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Australia mess up - penalty.

It's just sad now.

 

[kiwileaguefan]

Really got to feel for Lebanon at this tournament, they have been screwed over by English referees...

 

[Desert Qlder]

With Aaron Woods doing his best to put a downer on everything, the beautiful Queensland connection sends the fans home on a high.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Goal missed, touchies put the flag up anyway.

Criminal.

 

[Pommy]

Australia didn’t score 70, Southern Hemisphere league in crisis!!!!

 

[wibble]

Moses coming from the field after being systematically targeted for termination by the opposition for 70 minutes.

But he has done his reputation no harm this cup, and this game, with both his play and his toughness.

I'm no Moses fan, but Eels supporters must be impressed with how rapidly he has matured

 

[Desert Qlder]

Val Holmes - throw rose petals at his feet. North Queensland legend.

Last pass was forward

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

The last two tries were a real shame. Lebanon had worn them down, were poised to strike and te ref just ripped the game away from them.

 

[King hit]

He’s had a much better game in the green and gold then last week Tom Trobevic. Strong in attack and defence.

 

[wibble]

Shame for Lebanon that they've struggled the last 10 minutes to contain the Aussies, but it doesn't really take away from their efforts so far this cup. They have punched well above their weight.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Last pass was forward

Holmes has been rooming with Smith. He no longer has the ability to pass backwards.
