| What a game, showed what International RL is all about. Outstanding effort by the Kiwis, especially considering the likes of Tuiaki, Vatuvei, Ropati, Asotasi, Smith and Mannering couldn't make the tour due to injury. Some of their younger players like Junior Sau and Warea-Hargreaves really stood up tonight.
Seemed like a decent atmosphere as well, and the attendance was respectable, I imagine it was higher than the England - France game. Didn't see that match, but I imagine this one was on a different level.
Che Smith has got his work cut out facing these two nations in successive weeks.

| In my opinion that was the best game of rugby I have seen this season. It had great attack & defence andcwas played at pace for the 80 mins. Not looking forward to playing either of them to be honest.

| I can't see England coping with the speed. As a matter of fact, the only area I can see them matching either the Aussies or Kiwis is in the forwards with Morley, Burgess and Peacock.
Everywhere else, you're looking for minor miracles.

| I fear for the Aussies unless they change their half-backs. All the possession they had in the NZ 20m and yet create next to nothing. Neither of them were able to grab the game by its throat and stear their team around the pitch.

| What a top game it was. Almost tempted to watch it again.
On a different day I think Aus could have won comfortably though. A few things didnt stick

I'm with you on this one, I really do hope that I'm wrong but if we play twice as well as we did against France we will still get hammered. Having watched both games again and comparing the intensity, speed of play, defence, and passing skills it was like watching a premier match and a amatuer run out, to say we were nervous and that is why we played so poorly simply isn't good enough, our players havent had to travel half way around the world and play in unfamiliar surroundings yet we came out in the first half as though it was us suffering from an extreme case of jet lag. So what is the answer? I think in order to get the skills and intensity required the RFL need to find someway of resurrecting the tour down under, a couple of months playing in Australia/New Zealand against all comers etc might after a couple of years worth of tours eventually ignite the latent skills that are here, I dont deny we have talented players but to improve in any job/walk of life you need to be constantly challenged and it simply isnt happening. Look how much France have improved since being challenged by us! However when all said and done I will still be cheering the lads on Saturday and my money will be on a 6-10 pt win by us! You know what they say about a fool and his money.
