DCE to take on Foz in Final: RLWC2013

Two of the most exciting players in the game at the moment, and two great mates, will go head-to-head next week after both winning their semi finals match ups overnight.
Foran’s New Zealand side left it till the last minute to book their place in the final, with Shaun Johnson stepping his way over the line with 20 seconds remaining to ties the match at 18 all.
The playmaker then cooly stepped up to slot the conversion after the siren, sending the defending champions through to defend their title.
In what many are describing as one of the best games of Rugby League they have ever witnessed, the physical and extremely skilful encounter had everyone at Wembley, and at home, on the edge of their seats for the entire 80 minutes.
Former Manly utility-back, Dean Whare, had a hand in magical try for the Kiwis. The Penrith Panther flicked the ball without looking, in full stride and while hovering over the sideline, back inside to Roger Tuivasa-Sheck who danced his way over the try line.
It was a completely contrasting affair in the second game, with Australia dominating Fiji 64-0.
Johnathan Thurston put in a typically commanding display and was named man of the match, while Jarryd Hayne finished with a hat-trick against the side he represented in at the last world cup in 2008.
With the match effectively decided before DCE came on, his impact was limited. However, after getting through unscathed, Cherry is now even more determined to keep his spot in the side and take on Foran himself.
“It’s going to be great. I’m really looking forward to it. You know, if I am in the seventeen there’s no doubt that there’ll be a few texts sent during the week – a bit of friendly banter,” Cherry-Evans said.
“If we’re lucky enough, we might get to tackle each other and we’ll have a few friendly words of fire to say to each other.”
The Australian representative is under no illusions about how tough the Final is going to be.
“Each week they’ve got better and better so I have no that if we play our best football, we’ll put ourselves in the best possible position to win this tournament,” Daly said.
“In saying that, we know how hard it’s going to be against this side. We’ll have to work very hard and prepare well to get the result we’re after.”
Will be a great contest if DCE gets more game time than the 20 minutes he got last week
Apparently Channel 7 may be Broadcasting it as 7mate is limited in its coverage footprint.
