| Petro had a great game. He got the ball a couple of times from the kick offs and bought it back strongly each time. I can also see why they pick Kite, he is such a massive unit and like petro is robust. Aus has a monsterous side at the moment, having Bird in to replace Lockyer added more size. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Agree Qfog. My blues have neither halves or the props to stop you this year. And to think... this is without you having Price & Lockyer involved....scary! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Big Petro always saves the best for Origin. Watch out blues/ The Petro train is arriving soon. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Civoniceva had a great game for mine. Be interesting to see if he can carry it into origin - lets hope not!!!!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Topou wasn't up to much last night. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Well I don't recall Kite, Webb or Mason doing anything impressive. Gallen was good and bad with his grub tactics, Hoffman, Cr0cker and Topou were fairly good but uninspiring. What was wrong with P e t e ros game? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Civo... fantastic hahahahahahahaha | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I thought Inglis' athleticism was something special, but I thought Civoneceva was fantastic. He made some 12 and 15 metre hit-ups in very tight spots under considerable attention. The Aussies blew them away early, but to their credit, the Kiwis didn't buckle and let it turn into a blow out. I thought Isaac Luke may have had his defensive lapses, but he showed what a livewire he can be with some great runs out of dummy half. They just needed him to run behind SBW, so that when he got those arms free, there was someone able to shoot through the gap. Not bad for a first timer who's played only a handful of 1st grade games. Hopefully, they'll grow from that and come out with some belief right from the start for the World Cup encounters. |

| I dont think there was anything wrong with the aussie side picked. It wouldve been more exciting if the Aus didnt score 4 of there 5 tries in the 1st 20 mins. NZ look as though they could be competitive if you look at their second half. Aus will be very very hard to beat in world cup. Look at the size of our wingers. In fact every position we have quality players. The Australian team looked bigger then the kiwi's aswell. Usally the kiwi's are the bigger side. SBW was the standout player by a mile for the kiwis. I'm not sure who was Australia's best was. I'll pick Inglis as he did the most memorable things. His try assist to gaz was freaky and his kick return where he made 40+ metres was impressive aswell. Lastly, it was good to see the kiwi's finish the game strongly. Most games I remember they start strong and peter out at the end. |

| Thurston and Hodges in the best what a joke.... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I would uimagine the kiwiws will get a few sheep together and practice on them before the world cup .... was a boring game ...No defense on both teams ....skills were poor ..... and you lot have the chek to come to MY AFL SITE and try and disrupt things ...pfffft | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| did carl webb even play? i didnt notice. thaiday should have been picked | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| slater was sh1t confirming my factually proven opinion that he's not a rep player | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The whole NZ team had ordinary games. SBW went alright when he went wide but it was only Gaz that he was running through,so you cant count that as defence. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| good experience for him though...a star of the future IMO. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Luke made a bad read as dummy half twice, and both times the Aussies exploited it, and scored. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| i didnt watch the game just listened on the radio..how did Isaac Luke go? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| First 20 min the NZ team were pathetic in defence. They took a long time to get into the game and it was all over before they started. Best players for the Aussies were Thurston,Hodges,Inglis and Webb. |
