"Rust", LMAO! They just played a trial game last week and most of the side was playing together in the SL GF. That is no excuse!

1.They played the quality of a knights jersey flegg team.

2.Half the side didnt play agaisnt the Kiwis, it was really their 2nd team.

They can only get better i think the first game was always going to be their worst but there is no excuses from now on in for them.

Locky they played a bloody Newcastle D side, they arn't the same quality.

If they played a NZ A side I might of agreed but really rust can be given as a legitimate excuse here.

Half of them played in the SL GF FFS! I would imagine more of them play together than NZ do on a regular basis. Being rusty is no excuse!

How come everyone after the first game said Australia and New Zealand were rusty although 8 players had played in the Grand Final for the Aus team?

Double Standards?

Just give them a chance.

Well i think its a misunderstanding sometimes. When i say GB were rusty, i meant as a team but not individually.

I have to ask one thing about the GB team. body language wise...

do they actually like each other ?

Their whole look was that of a team where the individuals either don't like each other, or at best are strangers.

They looked very very nervous to me leaving the sheds and during the anthems etc.
