Congrats to Fonua-Blake on a solid debut for the Kiwi's. Ran and tackled strongly even popping a nice off-load which lead to a try. Tapau was his usual self with another rampaging performance of barnstorming runs and offloads. He seems to be relishing the starting role.
On a personal note it was good to see the nephew Peta back in the Kiwi team. Thought he had a great game capped off with his first try for NZ, which eventually became 3 and a hat-trick(should have been 4 when he blew the grounding lol). While the tries were nice I was more impressed by his workrate. He ran over 200 metres, carried the ball solidly even getting a couple sneaky off loads. Real proud of his effort.
Also congrats to Tommy Turbo on his debut for the Kangaroo's. While it wasn't the fairytale first game, he has one under the belt now. I thought play just didn't go his way much(unlucky with that early disallowed try). While he did make some errors i thought he ran the ball back ok. I have no doubt he will bounce back in his next game though.

Speaking of annoying, who is worse in the expert commentary space - Brett Morley or Adrian Kimmorley?
Sorry, just had to find the appropriate segue to inject that one into the forum.

There is no A.I. Just better computers
Agree. U 20's Player, in a test against England. Big big debut for him.
I reckon that's close to a tie.
But Darryl halligan by the length of the straight overall.
Geez Billy Birmingham would've had a field day with him.

Tonga v Samoa was pure rugby league played with passion and skill. It was a breath of fresh air to see a game like this unlike most of the games that are just boring as hell to watch. I would love to see a South Pacific series involving Australia, New Zealand, Tonga and Samoa and have rules like state of origin in relation to eligibility.

Scotland rugby league team captain Danny Brough and two teammates have been kicked off their Rugby League World Cup squad after being too drunk to catch a flight from Christchurch to Brisbane.
The Scottish Rugby League (SRL) confirmed Brough, Sam Brooks and Johnny Walker remained in Christchurch on Sunday when the rest of the squad flew to Cairns for for their next match against Samoa next weekend.
A disappointed SRL chairman Keith Hogg told Stuff on Sunday night his organisation fully supported the airline's decision to refuse to let the trio on the early morning flight.
