RL World Cup 2017 Thread...* SPOILERS

[WestsBenTigers]

How come the Aus Aborigines don't have their team as well?

Two very good reasons come to mind.

1\. The World Cup is for teams from Countries not for people within a country.

2\. The Aboriginals are covered in the World Cup because they are Australians. This system is working as it
is promoting unity and not segregation.

That's why they don't have a team in the World Cup BBF.

they're not a country, it's a group of people. Just like there isn't an all white team or an all black team or a hispanic team

Well there is an all black team in Rugby Union…

Strictly speaking, due to their being no treaty with the Aborigines the Aborigines have the legal right to declare an independent country. A precedent under different conditions was the broad acceptance of Kosovo, done without the agreement of majority ruling Serbia refer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_recognition_of_Kosovo

One day Timor Leste may have it's national rugby league team playing in the World Cup so too may the Australian natives have the same right. On a few occasions in my lifetime Aborigines have attempted their nationalist inspirations - their Aboriginal passports were recognised by some of the non-aligned countries. It is not too far-fetched to consider in the future they may have a soccer team accepted by some progressive European, African and Pacific nations.

As I mentioned earlier - do we as a nation want integration or are we trying to split the population?

Talk like this does not help the "healing process" - are we all one or just some of us?

I don't think we have the right to deny Aborigines a national RL team if they desire one, it won't disintegrate our Oz national team just as SSM won't disintegrate our hetero marriage. It would give the Aborigines more pride and something to strive for, just as Farah gets something out of playing for Lebanon. Did you read his story and his father having the guernsey up for 15 years?

I'm surprised Melbourne aren't playing. It's not like them to let rules stop them!

You may have started something BBF.

We could have a Maori team, a Native American team, Punjabi Team, Eskimo team etc. etc.

Oh! no that wouldn't work all those groups of people have integrated and are happy to play for their national teams with pride. Why can't it be the same here??

And no, I did not read the Farah story (he is a Souffs player). Lol

But the Farah story is all Tigers stuff - when he was a cub and got Lebanon's first try against France in a win 36-6\. The coach was Tiger John Elias - his coaching record could be superior to Wayne Pearce's.

I can't remember Choc Mundine being happy to play with his national team with pride but I may be wrong. Or was it vice versa?

Cassius Clay maybe wasn't too proud to be American at times - threw his Olympic gold medal in the river I believe. And what about those naughty Afro-American athletics who gave the Black Power salute at the Olympics and half joined by a ruddy Aussie? Now they are genuflecting for the national anthem instead standing proud with hand on heart. All questions to be answered.

 

[Munk]

If the Aboriginals didnt want to be part of Australia in a sporting contest, then we should extend the offer to all parts of their lives.
What should we spend the billions of dollars we save on?

The list that haunted Elijah Taylor

Fri 20 Oct, 2017, 11:00am
By Corey Rosser‌, New Zealand Correspondent‌‌, ‌‌‌NRL.com

At the start of every season Elijah Taylor sits down and pens a list of his rugby league goals for the year ahead.

Since 2011, without fail it has included the word 'Kiwis', something intended to serve as a beacon to help him get through the tough times, but which has ended up being one of the 27-year-old's greatest sources of frustration.

After amassing 10 Test caps for New Zealand between 2011 and 2013, Taylor missed selection in 2014, again in 2015 and 2016, and this year was originally told he was unwanted for the World Cup, before a series of eleventh-hour player withdrawals presented a second chance.

"It has been frustrating, I won't lie, the Kiwis goal is always there," Taylor told NRL.com.

"There was a burning desire to put on a black jumper again. The thought of playing for New Zealand is something that motivates me when I can't find any motivation during the NRL season.

"In 2015 and 2016, I felt I played really good football for the Panthers. I captained them a few times, then I missed out on the squad.

"In 2016 I went to the Tigers, I helped turn around a season, we nearly made the top eight, but I still missed out on the Kiwis.

"So I knuckled down for 2017 and I still didn't make the cut, I was so disappointed again, I thought I played my heart out for the Tigers and worked as hard as I could. Thankfully as it has turned out, I got the opportunity again.

"I haven't been in the team over the last couple of years so to be back in this environment is something really special."

Taylor has arguably been the best Kiwi player in the NRL not to earn a single Test cap over the past four years, a period in which he has averaged at least 37 tackles and 47 metres per game without ever making more than eight errors across a season.

While a season-ending ACL tear meant he was always going to miss out on the Kiwis in 2014, the workaholic Wests Tigers star said watching New Zealand beat Australia the following year and missing subsequent tours to the UK in 2015 and 2016 was tough.

"It's not until you are back at home while the boys are away on tour that it hits you, they are playing games and all you want is to be back in that team," Taylor said.

"In my Kiwis debut back in 2011 I kind of thought at the time that it was always going to happen. I look back and I took it for granted, I 100 per cent took it for granted.

"Now I have got that opportunity, I'm not going to waste it."

While Jason Taumalolo's decision to represent Tonga rather than New Zealand at the World Cup removes one of the main obstacles to Taylor earning a spot in coach David Kidwell's 17 for the opening match against Samoa, former Kiwis captain Simon Mannering is likely to beat Taylor in the race for the No.13 jersey.

But Taylor says position doesn't concern him if it means a long-awaited 11th Test appearance becomes a reality.

"I've played different positions my whole career, and on Kiwi tours I am used to being the utility," he said.

"I have played some hooker, some centre, some back-row, wherever they put me I'll be giving my all and I am ready to play wherever I am needed."

Thanks for the article Geo.

Yet to hear Elijah make a statement nor see an action that shows him as anything other than a real good bloke. I have always been pleased with his contribution throughout a career amongst giants, but less than eight errors a season, every season, wow, what a stat.

Great quotes and such a good story!
