2025 Kangaroos Ashes Tour

[Tim Sheens]

A “ save face” comment re Bateman, he’s not hurt, just past it and coach knows it.

Let us not let our judgement be clouded by hate when he specifically states so, and especially so at the same time as saying that others were dropped on form.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Bateman being left out isn’t the big story, he is at the end of his career.
Welsby, the Pommie version of Billy Slater is.
They are copping a huge reality check ahead of the World Cup. Losing that semi to Samoa in the last WC was embarrassing as that Samoan side was not that good. The Samoan team now is far better.
It is possible we have a WC semi final that does not feature England.
That will be very bad for the international game.

Not our fault.

No hate here mate, just my opinion.

 

[Tucker]

Not our fault.

No it’s not our fault. We’ve had lots of players defect from our squad and we are still likely favourites to win the WC.
The rest need to get their shit together.

Anyone staying up for the Test tonight ??

No, I’ve been at Flemington races all day and I am sbsolutely knackered.
I’ll do the highlights in the morning.
Can’t see us being beaten but if you stay up, enjoy.

The son just asked the same question to which I replied, "I think I'll be catching some zeds around that time."

Not this week...will catch it in the morning...its an hour later for some reason this one

 

[jadtiger]

Anyone staying up for the Test tonight ??

Yes i will be watching,hopefully it will be an open game unlike last weeks wrestle mania which the pommie ref allowed.

 

[Speed2burn]

Brimson might bring a bit more X factor, but Aussies are just world class across the park

It’ll be another disappointing night for the poms

 

[gallagher]

Anyone staying up for the Test tonight ??

Absolutely! But it's only 10.30 pm where I live so I'm not really going above and beyond.

 

[Jolls]

Morning All

 

[Tucker]

A hell of a lot more aggression from the soap-dodgers which is great to see.
So far they haven’t shown anything in attack but their completions are good

 

[happy_tiger]

England testing our back 3 aerially ...smart tactics

 

[Jolls]

Brain dead decision by Walsh - the stop start nature of the game is keeping the Poms in it.

 

[gallagher]

An unexpected scoreline at half time, feels like a test from the 80's.

 

[jadtiger]

Certainly a little more feeling in the game but unfortunately not much skill shown by either side yet.Walsh giving a dumb penalty at the end to give them any easy shot at goal.

 

[jadtiger]

The good news is the only Tiger out there has gone ok so far and if and its a big IF he gets the right coaching he could go ok for us this year.

 

[Tucker]

Great arm wrestle in this first 40. Both packs working their backsides off.
