aus not walking up to the haka this week. The kiwis are much more intimidating than the abs, but with JFH holding a big chunk of jade Id be the same lol

edit: I was waiting for the TMO on the head high on us, forgot, its RL ;-p

a lot of penalties both ways, thats rare. Would rather ref uses the 6 again for the ruck infringement to keep the game rolling.

Flap, NZ bombing some good territory.

EDIT: Oh yeh baby, kiwis are fired up. Hughes with Brown is a great halves pairing, CNK as FB and old boy Foran playing hookers makes for a great spine.

Mulitalos speed on the wing is something the Warrirors are missing. TRY

Wow this kiwi team is FIZZING. Hughes setting the OBs up to give it a go and boy are they, both sides.

Id love to get Mulitalo on the Warriors wing, greedy but thats what they lack, ball player and hella speed.

12-0 NZ

Edit: bahaha Harry Grant what a muppet he looked there, ball in two hands, drops it 5m from our line.

Edit: wow best game Ive seen Brown play, our OB's are on fire.

NZ slaying Aussie here 22-0

Edit: this is the best aus have.

Griffin Neem a rookie from greymouth unheard of by most just tears aus apart, this is ridiculous. I think this is a record win now if they hold this scoreline.

Enlighten me. I see Kiwis ve Kangaroos. But I was assuming lots of Warriors, and lots of Kiwis from other NRL teams. Doesnt seem to be the case?

By far the most complete and professional yet totally amped full of aggression and intensity.

The biggest loss for Kangaroos EVER.

Well done PC champions, NZ Kiwis!!!!!

Plenty of top shelf kiwis from other teams, CNK was the only Warrior.

Couple of rookies like Griffin Neem, who just busted through 3 tackles to score was incredible.

This is the big aussie team coached by big Mal

NZ ptb speed shows the intensity, which lasted 80mins. insane.

OK, I will take your word for that. I would have expected a raft of Kiwi Warriors, added to the Kiwis from other teams. Then its a true AUS vs NZ game, but I looked at the makeup, I didnt see that.

Not quite sure what you mean. Plenty of Warriors in the Pacific teams. NZ has so many top end player that are not Warriors. Thats what they are tryiing to change in NZRL, give kiwi kids more pathways through Warriors vs being signed at 16yo and moving to aus for club juniors, with or without their parents.

IMO there is more than enough quality kiwis to field another NZ team, but they have to be attracted by a club that performs, which is chicken and egg with brand new clubs.

The Warriors are a club team and don’t have all the best Kiwi players.

How is this not a true Australia New Zealand game?

They are all club teams

Are the Kiwis playing the best Kiwi players in the NRL?

They are playing the best ones available. Why wouldn’t they?

I dont feel that ALL the Warriors that are Kiwis need to play to make it a NZ team

Given thats not the case, far from it, are we fielding the best kiwis in the NRL?

He hasn’t played test football for years. His body struggles to get through an NRL season.

He said a bit earlier, I think after the Dally Ms, he is done for internationals.

Was a handy HB to replace him with and Dylan Brown had an epic game. Was a sensational spine who layed it on for the outside backs to run wild. 5 tries to 0. To keep aus scoreless is one thing, but to beat them with the highest margin by any team was impressive. NZ were clinical, near faultless. But it was the intensity and aggression that kept aus away from our end most of the game.
