Quote: Superted "The problem is, other than Hock, none of the English forwards could fight their way out of a paper bag.

Gallen would make mince meat of all England's pack, both legally and illegally! Sam Burgess is the only one who can get anywhere near his in-game performance levels, but he'd not stand a chance going toe to toe with Gallen if things got fiery. Look for videos of Gallen boxing, he's very handy.

England would be silly to get into a battle with the Aus pack. They need to simply take it to them with line speed and numbers in defence, and work for quick play the balls in attack - trying to bully or get physical with them would IMO be a mistake and would play into their hands.'"

This is . I reckon our pack with Sam Burgess, George Burgess and James Graham will dominate the Aussies.

WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg



Big Sam has thrown a few whilst over here and we all know if Graham gets abit peckish mid game he isn't beyond having a ear nibble to keep himself nourished!

I don;t see any mongrel in George yet but that might just be his youth

I'd agree to an extent, although I wouldn't go as far as saying dominate. My point is that if they stick to playing good, hard and fast rugby, then the pack will lay a platform - if we alter our game to try fight/bully/intimidate because of their spoiling/bullying tactics, then we're playing into their hands and will come out 2nd best.

England has always had better fighters and Boxers than Australia.
Some one should take Gallen and his Mates on.

Queensland have won the last 7 origin series

By 1990, Australia had won the last 7 ashes series and our Australian friends were suggesting that the kangaroos would throw the first game in order to make the series interesting up game to 3 which the aussies would then could back and win 2-1

Now that the State of Origin is as predictable as the Ashes results were in the 70’s and 80’s, Queensland are perhaps throwing the odd game to keep it interesting?

Or maybe the law of averages means that these runs will probably happen but don't last forever (without some extreme discrepancy between the two player bases to select from)...

What rubbish...worthy of the Great Conspiracy Theorist aka Oliver Stone.

Unlike soccer in China, rugby league in Australia is not subject to the interests of organised crime.

For me that's how it should be, let the niggles go, couple of punches to man able to defend himself, word in his ear don't do it again, great stuff for me.

I think the game is being over sanitised, let the men get on with the game and the mard booties in the crowd stop moaning.'"


Don't often agree with you but this is spot on. Soon we'll have a game where it's become that dry it needs a talking point like a sending off like Yawnball does.

In the majority of cases, games that flow, have less penalties, that don't see the man in the middle or upstairs, that have biff are always the more enjoyable..

i completely agree, who when or what made the rule changes towards niggling and little scraps in the game? was it the commentary team moaning as usual? Stevo used to love a bit of biff and now he's like a fragile mum calling for tackling to be banned.

a swinging arm and 2 head punches. gallen should have walked. if miles responds its 6 of 1 half dozen of the other and ten mins for em both would be ok.
as for winding gallen up to get him to respond, he didnt get sent off for the above, like big daft willy didnt for dropping fielden, so it would be a waste of time (yet morley did for a high shot after 10 seconds?)
our pack at least matches theirs anyway, and our wingers n fullback are of similar standard to theirs . its centres and halves were we'll struggle.

bailey wouldnt crack gallen coz he knows gallen would hit back.
