NZ v England

[Brissie Kid]

Off line ENG get ball to centre Gildart who runs near length of field to score.

Well worth a look at that try. A bit of a Snoz O'Connor feel to that try. Get the pommy kid to Brookie!

Wow, this video ref is blatantly biased towards England.

Fair enough to call a penalty for leading with the knees, but a penalty try was a disgusting call. Fullback's knees had little to nothing to do with keeping the ball off the ground, that was all Johnson. Unbelievable decision

I don’t really agree, I think if he didn’t get distracted by being kneed in the head he would have wrestled the ball down to score. Close call I admit, but I don’t agree it was wrong.

Good hard tackle by Taupau on Thompson, commentators say "KAPOW".

Think it was also Thompson who showed some oomph at times for England.
... And we are overdue for a Pommie signing, he wouldn’t be the worst based on that showing!

A bit of a swerve, but no suggestion of snoz for me.

Watched it on fox good quality test. Tomkins was however horrud at 7 for poms. Kiwis very conservative.
I also watched france v wales, french star gigot had a field day in 56-18 win. France had a team full of superleague players mixed with toulouse from championship.

Just saw it.
What a treat.
International footy is on the up & up and the NRL needs to realise it whether you agree or not the hunger for it with the pacific nations will only increase.
They are going to have to re jig the comp to fit in more rep rounds at some point.
Shorter NRL season is overdue.
They aren't smart enough to see its the one growing market in the game.
Same as they can't see the bush and junior footy is dying.
Dumb a*se backward no how's.
