Who do I want to win? Kiwis (at least they pick Melbourne Storm players)
Who do I prefer to win? GB (for the sake of the international appeal of the games)

Going to be a shock for the GB forwards when Sonny Bill start smashing the crap out of them.
I dont care who wins, maybe GB only because I think they need it more, I feel so sorry for them.

I'm going for GB and I think they'll win.

Both sides play an unconventional style of football. I think it will be a game with many good moments.

Go Kiwi.

Imagine having Ali or Sonny running down one side of the field for 20 minutes, bringing on either SBW or Ali for the last 20 of each half. The poms wouldn't be able to rest.

You lot are crazy if you think the Kiwi pack presents an overwhelming prospect for the GB forwards. Farrell, Fielden, Morley, Peacock, hopefully Sculthorpe and Ellis are far superior an outfit.

I haven't seen the GB v Oz game yet (waiting for the video) but watched the two Oz v NZ ones. If NZ had the Nth Harbour St team I might be more worried but this team is, unfortunately, a patchwork quilt in comparison.

By the way, how S-B Williams for MOTM in NZ is beyond me. Jason Cayless was absolutely the best player on hte field, with Kidwell a close second. Williams is good to watch though.

Anyway, I expect GB to win, if not romp it as we're a new team finding its feet still.

Mate, SBW was clearly MOTM in that game, and as for the GB forward pack being far superior to the Kiwis!! turn it up champ.

You are nearly right. I'm not sure whose is the best pack, but that Fielden was unbelievably impressive.

Still, the Cayless', Rauhihi, Wiki, Kidwell, Williams, Lauitiiti, Swann - its not a bad lot to pick from is it? Its a better team than the team that went over in 2002, looks the same though for Great Britain.
