2022 TEST - Sat - Fiji 14-24 PNG @ Campbelltown

[skeepe]

JFC Kikau dropped it cold, made no effort to pick it up, and then smashed a bloke on the deck.

Weird unit

Overrated thug. Proves it every time he plays in a big game.

Api for the world cup I guess. He's better than Grant and Cook but probably won't be picked

You’re hilarious with your Panthers bias

Australian team will have Grant, Cook and Hunt as cover, Hunt can play Halfback so will get picked over Api

 

[Cowsboy]

That was f-ing beautiful, nice bit of footwork as he wound up

 

[This Year?]

Bulldozers in human form.

Do these games have the try inspection after awarding them where they can be reversed?

I can't remember seeing one today

 

[Bazal]

Tell you what, the team from The should be watching this one very closely. There's a few blokes out there they could do a lot worse than taking a punt on. Would also possibly set them up as a bit of a fave in these two countries.

The Fiji fullback has been outstanding, and a couple of the non-NRL forwards from both sides have been running like trains

There was one earlier in the half…..

No I think we are playing international rules? The turn over shit is NRL rules ?

**edit I Stand corrected I think there was one earlier in game.

Lol Cronk just called Tui "Kamicathinker"

Which is probably true in comparison to Cooper

Api is the form hooker of the comp and has been for 2 years

 

[Sphagnum]

The PNG 6 has handled kikau so far

 

[skeepe]

Look I’m not doubting Kikau has been very good for the Panthers, particularly when they are dominating.

But in a close game he either disappears or channels the mighty Paul Carige.

Signing for the Bulldogs is such a risky move, because he won’t be part of a dominant team anymore and I reckon he’ll get found out very quickly.

Before this year you would be correct about him. He's gone up 2 or 3 levels.

Agree he'll struggle at the Dogs after 2023, Burton won't be staying there

 

[Get Rid of The Donkeys]

If they didn’t want to leave Australia play it up in Cairns, lots of PNG support up there

I’m saying that I think Campbelltown has a pretty good turn out

It shows our game's administration is run by backwards bastards from Sydney who probably don't even know how to wipe their arse without getting shit on the knuckles that they drag along the ground as they walk. PNG is the only country that has rugby league as its national sport and a beautiful football stadium begging for games like this, so the idiots running our game decide to put it in Western Sydney. It's insulting and something needs to be done about it. No wonder our game has nine tiny teams in Sydney, just two in Brisbane and none in Adelaide and Perth.

I somehow missed that. But ive had the kids running around so ive had the odd distraction. Getting them ready for bed.

Only ones I remember this weekend were in womans Origin which woould be under Australian rules.

Womans game earlier today was 80 instead of 70. So i figured international rules might not have that in them.

Edit
Wait was it the Milne no try? I saw that. Thought it was video referee though

Brendan Smith was hooker of the year last year?
Cameron Smith was hooker of the year in 2020?

 

[Diesel]

Good first half

In fairness Brandon Smith isn't really a hooker. He's just a wombat that does well running underneath blokes legs

 

[Smug Panther]

2 years including this year. So 18 months then.
Smith is the best to ever do it and had no real peers (is a scumf**k awful human tho)
