Just listened to Mason and he said if we could play over here a couple of times a year it would be great I like that ideabut only treat them with more respect. Wonder if any NRL scouts can ofer the US payers a scholarship to learn the game in AUS?

I'm sure they could and they have done in the past, The eels signed a few gridion players a few years back and well Balmain/ Wests Tigers had some russians train and play with them through the trials as well which was good

Nate Smith was training with Canberra and the Eels earlier this year. Nate played for Wyong for a while too I think. The two players who were at Parramatta knew the basics just didn't have the anticipation....

Civoniceva rips out for 40 meters before USA is back on possession at the end of Q3. 24-all, 20 minutes to go.

I see a 40 point scoring spree by the aussies in the next Q if they notch it up a gear.

Pity the Aussies are playing now. You can bet all th TV's in the USA that were watching the game, switched off after they realised the aussie team thought it was just a mucka-bout game. What a waste of time and money!

Your not going to keep people with 260 channels to choose from, enertained with that tripe....

This may have already been mentioned, but it's a long thread. What is the crowd like? Big or small?

Yeh he was known as Pearson, before England & Canberra he played for the Magpies, centre mainly I think, he had shitloads of potential....thought for sure he's play for Aust.
Think he played minor reps though.....origin? City??

Just goes to show what drugs will do I guess.

He coulda been anything .

pearson/costin played country origin, but NEVER State or Origin or Australia. He was good, but not THAT good

No....but as I said, I think he could have been.

you said "thought for sure he's play(ed) for australia.
I said, he was good, but not THAT good in terms of representing australia.
Any player "could have been anything".

Aussies playing half seriously now. US Captain Preston saw a clear space for a 90 meter intercept try but dropped the ball. Mason scores from the scrum. 30-24. He may have hurt himself, limping after the try.

Thanks Dakink.

Seems like they've approached this game with the aim of not getting a blow out score, rather than as an advertisement for the skills of the game.
