Australia seek replacement for Luke Lewis

[thorson1987]

All I can say is, if you are respected by all teams as the world leaders, perhaps except the kiwis, who have rightful claim on a world champs tag, don't disrespect the comp by trying to bend the rules. Lewis injury was an accident. Wish him the best, but it was a freak. You never see that in those grounds week in, week out. Roos squad is more than capable of covering one injury ffs

How is it bending the rules?

The option is there for all teams to request a replacement.

It is also completely up to the discretion of tournament officials.

I love the rednecks complaining that Samoa were allowed one replacement for their three injured players, but Australia were not allowed a 1 for 1 swap.

Apples and oranges.

Who are you referring to there? Are you suggesting Australia are the rednecks? If so, feel free to quote the post by these supposed rednecks who are complaining that Australia can't make the swap.

Tim Sheens is the only person who seems to think we need another player in our squad.

According to Rugby League Week Facebook they have been denied, however..

Good.

It's just ol Shifty Sheens trying to get any advantage he can get. It must be killing him that his team has to play under neutral refs unlike the Anzac stitch-up tests.

^ Are you a genius? Every team is allowed to request a replacement. How is this being shifty? He asked (like a few nations have) and got denied. Reading this thread is like reading youtube comments, seriously.

Good.

glad to see the request was denied. i really dont know why they thought they'd need a replacement anyway. one more warm up game before the finals. any extra player wanst going to forv\ce their way into the squad

Unfortunately you didn't take into account that you're replying to a dead shit. Who will take any opportunity to have a whinge, especially in regards to Australia.

Don't worry, it's just typical little brother syndrome from the kiwis.

Shifty is Tim Sheens nickname.

Don't compare Australia to other teams. You have more than adequate cover.

You've been on my nuts ever since I said Scott & Tamou weren't the best props in the world. Please remove yourself from said nuts when you get the chance.

I suggest you don't read youtube comments if they bother you that much.

Throwing around the word genius isn't cool. It's disrespectful to mentally handicapped people.

Cheers.

Angry people on Facebook screaming about hypocrisy and how it was a conspiracy to stop Australia from winning.

Maybe direct your comment at whatever Facebook page you're referring to then, rather than in here where not one person held that belief.

Think you might be confusing me with someone else mate.

Yeah well anyone who's not an idiot knew what he was talking about.

LMFAO. Australian arrogance astounds me sometimes.

 

[Frank_Grimes]

We don't need the replacement, stupid request from Sheens. Would have been awesome to see it granted however just to see more sobbing from the kiwi fans around here.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

LOL following me like it's Twitter.

Flattering himself like he's important.

Thought it was fair to get a replacement for Lewis, considering how he got injured.
