2025 Kangaroos Ashes Tour

Not many people will believe the half time score when they wake up.

 

[Tucker]

Kangaroos have gone up a gear.
This group could be really special if they can keep them together.

 

[Tucker]

Walsh going to be binned here

 

[jadtiger]

Walsh is a total moron he deserves the bin for that.

 

[Tucker]

Pretty dour finish but job done.
NRL defensive patterns too strong for the English attack.

Poms shouldve been ahead really

 

[innsaneink]

Poms should be embarrased with that ground they presented with no markings...not good.enough

Happy we kept our line uncrossed...love seeing the momemt pommy supporters hearts break lol...never gets old

Poor bench management by England - Litten should have been rested earlier to come back on later in the game. They then swap Litten for Lewis and only give him 12 minutes when the game was as good as over. Lewis should have come on for Harry Smith who is a good organising half but has no attacking skills whatsoever. Had Litten been given a break earlier they could have finished the last 20 mins with him at dummy half and Lewis and Williams in the halves - far better attacking setup than what they finished with. Just appeared to me that after the first half when they had so much ball and couldn't crack the Aussie line they seemed more intent on closing up shop and limiting the scoreboard ticking over.

The English attack lacked variety and penetration,for a WT supporter it was "Taylor ball revisited".

Munster must have really been in the zone not to notice this bloke.
There was a shot I saw where everyone was looking forward except Lindsay Smith who was starring straight at him with a puzzled look on his dial 🤣🤣🤣

Nice 4 week holiday in the British Isles ....care of the ARL lol

 

[jadtiger]

I must admit i thought that the reserves would be given a shot this week,however it's good to see the jersey has not been lessened.

 

[innsaneink]

I dont see it as the jumper being lessened...they were all part of a squad originally...they didnt select a 17 and reserves before they left

You don’t get things handed to you in life.
This is the Kangaroos. The pinnacle team. Only the best 17 at the time get a run.

 

[innsaneink]

The players that missed out certainly havent been handed anything...theyve earnt their spot on the tour.

The kangaroos were pretty.woeful last week....hardly a.pinnacle

The entire spine bar Munster were pretty average, Edwards Moses and Brailey wouldnt be outta place

Yes they’ve earned their spot on tour.
No they haven’t earned their spot in the final 17.
The top 17 aren’t lighting the world on fire, but they are leading the series 2-0 on enemy turf.
Replacing guys from the winning team WOULD be handing other players an unearned jersey as they were judged by the coaching staff at this time to not be as good as the incumbents.
There should have been warm up games to give the rest a run.
