The Mighty Warriors - Fever League Fred

Kiwis squad
Adam Blair, Lewis Brown, Greg Eastwood, Nathan Fien, Bronson Harrison, Lance Hohaia, Shaun Kenny-Dowall, Thomas Leuluai, Issac Luke, Simon Mannering, Sika Manu, Benji Marshall (captain), Ben Matulino, Fuifui Moimoi, Jason Nightingale, Frank-Paul Nuuausala, Sam Perrett, Frank Pritchard, Junior Sa'u, Jeremy Smith, Manu Vatuvei, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Antonio Winterstein.

I'd put nightingale ahead of perrett. I see Aus are trying to claim underdog status, what a load of rubbish

A few rugby league games on tonight.

Maori v England
Followed by

Kiwis v Samoa.

Kiwis should smash Samoa and I am hoping the Maori can put up a good fight against the English.

Although just looking at the Samoan team coached by Steve Price lol.

They got a few good players in there. Francis Meli, Ali Lautiti, and Vidot

Vidot pulled out, cuz the game was deemed a test match, so would kill his QLD origin chances for 2 years.

Im looking forward to the Maori's game, its  a shame its on at the same time was the Shield game so can only watch one. Looking forward to see how Rangi Chase goes.

Superb crowd tonight. Then saw they had a good part of the ground fenced off. Still pretty good. Loving the game. Super try from Benji.

24-10 final score. Good win.

Going to need to improve on that. 2nd half we were rat shit.

Our jerseys are the sex.

that was pretty sweet, went to it, first ever rugby match for me and it was alright. Just couldn't handle sitting down so I stood for majority of the game.

Brian McClennan has resigned as head coach of Leeds Rhinos, with assistant Brian McDermott replacing him.

Wonder if he is heading too a NRL job.

Guess the cricket score, im picking 60plus

Great comeback from the juniors. Particularly enjoyed out prop chasing down their fullback along the touch line.

Joel Monaghan = Filth.

pretty interesting indeed.

LOL.

joel monaghan 

It's not cheating...

On another matter.

Journos and past players vote that one it's only three years old and again an Australian wins the award
I guess the season he had in the NRL guiding the Roosters from wooden spooners to grand finalists Getting the Dally M medal may have had something to do with it he's been fantastic for the roosters
having sorted his off field stuff out.

Joel Monaghan on the other hand ...

I think you've misunderstood the award criteria. I'm pretty sure it goes to the player who has played the best/most consistent [in the world] over the last 12 months in any form of the game. Rather than [how I think you've interpreted it] the best international representative, based on performances for his country.

In which case he is a very worthy winner IMO.

2nd string Aussie team that we are playing tonight. So I think we should get up and win this one

Played so average.  Not even a proper fight.  Ref was atrocious though that could be my incorrect understanding of the rules.  For example, Aussies last try our only hope of tackling the try scorer was taken out by Tate and nothings given.  Then when Benji reaches over to place the ball for a try it's stripped - that's legal in the in-goal I believe but surely when Hohaia jumps on it it counts?  No way a strip is knock on is it?

English Ref's for ya

We were not even close.

so monoghan to the doggies then now hes been sacked?

 
well its not like there is alot of international league so to base it on club form is pretty appropriate i think, in rugby there is enough international games to base an award solely on those performances
 
it doesnt make a joke of the competition, the competition is to find the best leaque player over all comps (nrl, super league). and i think it pretty much did that

He's quit  jumped before he was pushed. the NRL were/are going to de register him anyway so if he wants to play league it will need to be in the U.K/France.

 The photo's lol disgusting, stupid stupid man.

What exactly did Monoghan do with the dog?  e.g. was he fully clothed but standing close to its rear simulating we all know what, or was he nude or what?

Any chance of a brief description so I know vaguely at least what I'd be getting into should I open above file.

 
cant see anything graphic, you will get the idea of whats going on

inglis to souths, would liked to have seen him at the broncs. will be interesting to see how he does. russ must have chucked some serious cash at him

I rather like that signing.

Well the 4 nations result has eased the disapointment of the CCM game somewhat...

what a finish, was gonna be heading to be awefully grumpy, not now

gutted if Tate's career is over tho, always liked him

What happened to tate? All I saw was him crying?
