2017 RLWC - QF2 - NZL 2-4 FIJ @ Wellington

[Rhyno]

Not in the slightest pal.. we'll win by 30

Loll now that's funny

 

[Pedge1971]

NO my boy. That does not pay the bills or generate the TV viewers. The first world pays the bills which generates the game. Not racist just economics. Grow the game in Europe or forever stay a minnow. Look at the demographics not the romantics. Harsh but true.

Europe? You talk about economics then it is the Americas and China. Europe is f**ked.

[Rabbits20]

So Blair reckons it's a positive result for NZ rugby league and there is lots of talent coming through.....

This guy will fit in just fine at the Warriors.....

Credit to Naiqama too and how he handled himself after the match.....

Nikau with one leg would at least offer a good offload in the tackle.

Nikau, who is now 50, fat and footless would still be a better choice than most of the Kiwi pack.

 

[stormbati]

Honestly Fiji ran out almost a second string pack missing Korbin and Tariq Sims, Kane Evans, Jayson Bukuya, Campbell-Gillard and Daniel Saifiti.
Ashton is a Super League player at the end of his career, Williame is a centre, Kamikamica, Kikau and Vunakece are reserve grade players. Played well above their pay grade and really embarrassed the Kiwi pack.
I'm a Storm fan and I haven't seen NAS get dominated in so many tackles. What an effort Fiji Bati!

 

[RedVee]

What’s happened to the Kiwi forwards the last couple of years? No aggression at all

 

[shiznit]

Losing to Jarryd Hayne is not embaarssing sir

It could be Jared Leto for all I care... unless it’s 7’s we have no business losing to Fiji at anything...

Although... congrats to the Fijians... good on them.

 

[Nightward]

What the actual hell, NZ? The loss to Tonga seems to have broken them, though it's not like they were covering themselves in glory before that in this World Cup.

 

[Mr Angry]

It shall forever been known as the Kidwell factor.

 

[Mr Angry]

Shaun is not Stacey, needs to be a six.

Leave the organising to the likes of Cronk or a Stacey.

Just run boy.

 

[Meth]

lol

yet you still haven't beaten Aus in a Test series since 1990

I don’t set the rankings mate. Don’t bitch at me.

It's pronounced Minogue in El's case

 

[latingringo101]

Well done to the bati! Although no tries were scored the defence of Fiji and their muscle in the forwards helped win them the game.

Should be a cracker against Oz

Martin Taupau used to be such a bully at Wests.

[THE CHAMP]

And Laurie Daley was saying the Kiwis could win the World Cup.....

Peter sterling said the Broncos would miss the 8 last season. One of his all time best.

 

[adamkungl]

Congrats to Fiji but the more interesting thing than NZ losing to tiny islands 2 weeks in a row is the tryless game! 20 years of watching the sport and I've never seen one.
What a weird, messy, gripping and fascinating game that was.

 

[Saxon]

Their two best forwards are playing for the opposition (JT) and sitting on the sidelines (JB) for being a dickhead after the ANZAC Test.

Peter sterling said the Broncos would miss the 8 last season. One of his all time best.

But Sterlo's judgement for such things is notoriously bad. He had Melbourne missing the 8 in 2016 and 5-8 in 2017.
