shame he does'nt have a team around him at the cowboys eh? lol

 

[CGD]

i know......their team was back home watching the final on tv :lol:

No quote from Peacock there. Looks like the words of a title writer. I'm glad, because I respect Peacock and it would've been a childish and just plain dumb thing to say.

I wouldn't be so sure.

They're finally getting it right on the field North Queensland and their recruitment and retention was first class last season focussing primarily on locals and class juniors who are set to have big careers in the NRL.

Pretty much a good side from top to bottom and success is not impossible.

Maybe England should set up something like an allstars game. Not like ours but a best of the best clash with the two teams voted on by the fans. Might engage the public and create some competition for spots in the national team.

Just throwing it out there

NQ getting bagged out by a pom???? That'll do me.

The clue's in his username. Google roughyed and see what you get. ;-)

Tariq Sims would have beaten Tony Williams to an Australian jersey if he was fit IMO

 

[user_nat]

I doubt it.

I think Williams was a bit of a token premiers selection (one that paid off).

 

[Big Pete]

But then one has to wonder what kind of impact Tariq would have had on the finals.

Manly weren't all the impressive against the Cowboys until they eventually blew them away - it would have been interesting to see how a gamebreaker like Tariq would have played.

OLDHAM RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB


the 8th most successful RL club in Britain......which considering we've not won anything since 1957 goes to show how massive we used to be

I can't understand the amount of kiwi's in here giving it all that...
What's that about?

Id say its because a few of the Pommies on here thought they might try and claim something, anything they can over the Kiwis.

lol@bitterspud

[roughyedspud]

Wow, this explains so much.

[deluded pom?]

I thought the bang on the head explained everything 'spud? How many flights of stairs did you fall down as a kid?

 

[WJ]

Absolutly gutted.

How could I be so stupid to actually think we could win?

Well done australia, you are just too good for us, again.

I bet you think we are a right set of clowns, year, after year, only to be crushed in the big game and for you to pat us on the head and say 'well done'.

I don't know where we go from here.

Ah well to the world cup 2013. Aus or NZ to win?

Suggestions like this have been done to death.

The simple fact is australia have a better competition with better players.

Normally, that shouldn't prevent england from putting 17 players on the field that can win.

But rugby league is a ruthless unforgiving sport. Any slight deficiency can result in a big difference on the scoreboard.

In other sports like football and union you can paper over those type of cracks. In rugby league theres no hiding place.

If australia always turn up from 1-17 and play their ability for the full 80 it's very very hard for england to win because they can't reach those levels.
