Crowd numbers seem poor vs what Auckland NRL nines seemed.
Isnt Syndey the league capital or something??? Poor effort.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

I’m not one to heap praise on SJ, but his first half in the semi is a true captains knock, and he showed big ticker in that chase that turned into our play of the tournament

Maybe the captaincy is bringing out the best in him

Kiwis 22 England 6

I think the 9s brings out his best.

Bunty our new 5/8 with that pass!

 

[Beavers Headgear]

That pass from Ponga was extremely marginal

Wish 9 were covering this, can’t stand Warren Smith

Hopefully the final is reffed down the middle more than that semi final was

Is this World Cup the same lineage as when the Kiwis won in 1996 & 97? Or has the NRL dreamt up a new World Cup lineage where NZ aren’t the reigning champions for the past 22 years?

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Aussie v Kiwi double.
Aussies to lose in both

Aussie refs & run by the NRL? I think not. But I totally agree with you
