Indigenous All Stars Vs Who?

[TIGER14]

Wouldn't recognise most of these World 'All Stars' if I tripped over them.
Just kill this concept already.

Or make it Indigenous vs Maori like the 2008 World Cup.

Good call.
Pick 50 players that you would choose to rep Australia. Is Jordan McLean one of those?

 

[T-Boon]

It isn't a good All Stars team. Can the idea and have the Aboriginal team play in the Nines.

They should just do it properly or not do it at all. I was ok with the original concept with the voting and the automatic selection of the Aus and NZ captains. But it's pretty sh*t how it is now.

A pom that the Raiders just signed.

Perfect example of why this concept is dead then.

I thought I heard the commentator say one of the world all starts has 30mins of first grade experience

That was Chris Smith from the Indigenous side

Add to the fact that Cronulla sent Gerald Beale and Manly sent Uate, that signals the death of this concept as it stands. Once upon a time, Sam Burgess, Lockyer and an in-form Benji played in this game,

When the clubs don't take it seriously, it is a strong sign that the concept will die.

It was interesting at first because the NRL All Stars were much stronger on paper but the Aboriginal All Stars had something to play for. The voting system got people involved too. Now you have the World All Stars who are a much weaker side with nothing to play for and it showed.

Some teams had quality there. Others were laughable.

Panther risk Cartwright, Peachey, Latu and RCG.

Broncos risk David Mead....
Sea Eagles risk Uate...

Some teams only risk reserve graders. Others had genuine stars there. Not really fair from that perspective

To be fair, Cronulla also sent Fifita, Graham & Bird. Do Manly still have any decent players?

Ahh right.

McLean is a great up and coming prop. Will play for NSW and Australia in the future. You can believe that

 

[blaza88z]

It's nothing more than a celebration for the indigenous, as a game of rugby league it is quickly turning into a one-sided event, obviously the indigenous people are right behind it and why wouldn't they be but who exactly are the "all-stars" representing?

Some very ordinary footballers are being paid f**king huge money at the moment.
