Very watchable game, needs to be more under age internationals and involving the rest of the world as well

I'm all for the theatrics but they went a bit over the top and borderline disrespectful.

Kiwis broke the rules for the haka...you don't go over the halfway line so good on the Kangas for taking it to them - well within their rights.
The haka is about restraint, showing your strength within and putting awe (as in dread) into your opponent.
Seen many a haka and the best have been about precision, discipline, unleashed power & mana. If you don't demonstrate that in the haka your opponent has every right to disrespect you....
The other side of the haka is how it brings your team together and that lesson won't have been lost to our young Kiwis...great result!

Gutherson played pretty well on the wing for Manly in the two games that I saw, maybe he just isn't up to fullback.

I see Johnston was picked ahead of him at fullback in schoolboys teams.

I have noticed that too.. Lodge is a meathead

meathead ?. :lol:
He is a beast. Pretty sure he made a metre or 2 in hit-ups as well, against those dainty lil wall flower Kiwi forwards.
The commentators kept mentioning his name, but they didn't seem to know he was a meathead.
Well spotted. Thanks for letting us know.

It's all just for show. They all try act tough and hard with their yah hooing and what not but it's not genuine. Suits their stupid taping with stuff like 'tackle and Mum/Dad' written on it.
