If NZ gets a 2nd NRL team,they will be freakingly tough to beat,and then we may start to see intnls between Oz and NZ attracting crowds to match the Bleedingslow Cup.
The NRL clubs should bring down each a couple of top PNG players(exclusive of the salary cap),and give them a run in premier league.Its pretty hard to judge talent,when they are tucked away thousands of kms from the NRL.These guys are tough and can take the hits,they are clever with the hands,the defensive pattern is the problem.
Its good to see this young guys getting pick up by the NRL clubs because the streets of NZ are full of kids with nothing to do .
No surprise, a union expert like taipan will always compare anything league with the biggest event in NZ sports .
Its Bledisloe taipan and there's a union forum here if you wanna talk about it mate .
