Raiders All-Time Neville Team

Costin's been named for the US Tomahawks side to take us on after the Tri-series.

What possible connection does he have to the USA?

FBI probably investigating him for trafficking, thats enough of a link :lol:

 

[skeepe]

Could be the grandparent rule?

According to the AMNRL website, plans are underway for The Rock to be the Tomahawks "secret weapon" :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:
ill laugh if the rock acually plays and get smashed :lol:

 

[greeneyed]

I wouldn't put it past them...... what a farce!

 

[Raider Azz]

I would hardly call it a farce. If anything I think it would be great for promotion of the game in the States. Don't know how the Rock will go though :lol:

:x Don't knock the Tommahawks! My dad is American. I wonder if I could get a start for them? :-k :lol:

 

[girvie]

The rock is part Samoan so he'd probably be a star player.

Yes, but remember half our reserve grade side and half our NRL side thrashed the Tomahawks last year.

Of course if it was rugby union the media would be saying "what a marvelous celebration of "rugby"... it is such a privilege for the ***insert nobody team here*** to be playing Australia...... i am sure they will be telling their grandchildren about it... what a thrill for them to meet the Australians after the game...... it is just like a village picnic...... what an atmosphere..... the crowd is just loving this...... if you like tries [as the score passes the 100 mark] then this was the match for you."

When we put on nothing matches like this the media says "What a joke international rugby league is.... why do we bother..... etc etc".

When I say it is a farce, I am knowing how we will be judged in the media. We should only put on genuine contests, IMO.

Hmm, well those powerhouses of Australian league, the Wyong Roos, defeated the American champions, the Glen Mills Bulls.

The Roos also managed to defeat the Tomahawks by 70 earlier this year.

David Schrader was a good player
