Why dont you look and see who i replied to in the first place because it wasn't you.

Billy Slater is the latest player to pull out of the game through injury.

tbh i wasnt looking forward to this match but being starved off decent sport

ie A League soccer

ill watch it if im home.

all the pullouts will be clubs telling their players not to play

its a good idea because it pays homage to the contribution of aboriginal players, and also because it allows kiwis to play with the best aussies.

cant wait to see lockyer and benji in the same side.

i really am missing the footy by now. at the end of last year i was drained with the saints choking but its been long enough without it

Anyone know what time the allstars game kicks off?

here you go mate rlhttp://www.nrl.com/newsviews/latestnews/newsarticle/tabid/10874/newsid/57554/all-stars-game-to-be-streamed-live-on-nrlcom/default.aspxrl

Cheers Si, top man

All Stars by 4.

Should be a great game.

Excellent to see rugby league's unmatched richness in the area of A & TSI representation coming to the fore in the sport.

It is an area which has certainly not received enough attention in the past.

Yet another reason why rugby league makes union in Oz look very sickly (and very white).

Good luck to both sides.

Watched the second half, it finished 16-12 to the Indiginous side. Thurston won the Preston Campbell medal for man of the match, he was excellent as usual.
Tries from Sailor, Jones and Soward scored the winner with 2 minutes left. For the NRL team it was Benji, Jennings and J Morris. Jennings was dangerous everytime he got the ball.
Sam Burgess was the best forward on the pitch, put some big hits on and Sterling and Gus were saying he was the best player on the field along with JT. He'd have got the PC medal if the NRL team would have won.
Lockyer got injured in the first quarter and didn't return which will be a worry for the Broncos, Gidley got smashed by his Knights team-mate Cory Paterson and looks like he could miss the start of the season with an ankle injury. Travis Waddell got knocked out.
Alot of dropped ball and errors but it was still a good game with some massive hits.

Really enjoyed that, the try celebration when big Dell scored was legendary!

Does anyone remember that the ARL shıt themselves when there was a serious call to have an Aborigina and TSI side set up for international RL. Arty Beetson was asked to be coach. THis was about 8 or so years ago. They realised that if there was one, it may be a threat to the National side's power being eroded and threw it out. Maybe last night's game, showed they had cause for concern.
