Say the Poms beat Aus what's the tie breaker?
Points diff?
i think so , what is in our favor there , Mal and Bennet are in a public feud , Bennet tried to undermine Mal and pinch his job as Aussie coach ,
Mal will have them fired up, its personal

Which could possibly throw the Kangaroos off their game.

BREAKING: Jarryd Hayne reveals life-long wet dream

surprised no chat around the "rugby league player banned and sacked after acting like rugby league player who just won a GF"
Ben Barba tested positive for cocaine after the GF. The NRL of course suspended him for 12 games, and the Sharks released him.
And the response-by-numbers clicked in to gear
Barba fucked off to Thailand to go to "rehab"
The whole thing was blamed on "personal issues" ex-team mates came out and said they saw no visible signs of his "problems"
Rival clubs immediately started circling to sign him up.Seriously, i wish, just once, they would all cut the crap. Admit you got caught; you did it because it's fun, not because you are battling demons; not have your team mates come out and pretend it could have been any one of them unlucky enough to get tested at the wrong time; not fuck off to some overseas "rehab" joint. And have the club keep you, and say we would rather have him than play against him next year.
"Yea mate, look, i was in to the marching powder pretty hard after the granny, the Sharks hadn't won in like a hundred years mate, so the shire was going off, and it was just getting thrown at us. I mean, who is turning down free rails? But i pushed it a bit hard, and the fucking testers got me before i could get it all out. My PR guy reckons i need to get out of the spotlight for a bit, so i am off to Thailand to drink cocktails on the beach for a couple of weeks until someone else takes the heat off me. I'll be turning out for the Sharkies again next year because the thought of me playing for St George is worse than the heat from the sponsors' missus apparently".

@mariner4life no doubt the tell all in a slightly dimmed room with hard hitting questions from the Footy Show will be on the cards for the week before round 1....

I didnt watch but was following online, it sounded like they were lucky to nab a draw (Kiwis, not Scotland/England B )

David Kidwell won't be coach of the Kiwis for the RLWC next year and his two assistants shouldn't be there right now.

Aren't these the same assistants 'let go' by the Warriors just a few weeks ago?
-
apparently Kearney offered kidwell his assistance and he knocked it back .
Can't help but think kidwell needed experienced people around him to ease him in , like Kearney had with Bennett .
Looking a bit out of his depth ATM.

It was a poor performance and against a better side we would've got 40 put on us. Kicking game still a massive concern.

One of them was - Justin Murphy aka the worst defensive skills coach known to mankind. Shame the NZRL couldn't maybe get Ivan Cleary or even someone like Tim Sheens to take on an advisor role for this tour.

@raznomore not saying it's going to happen but these are the times when the Kiwis and the Warriors pull an effort out of thier arse and surprise everyone. That's what I am telling myself anyway.

I know what you mean but i cant see it. This team is too disjointed. They need a leader in the backs and Johnson doesnt appear to be that guy.
Add to that Bromwich probs not vocal enough to be captain. Id probably throw the armband to Luke and see how he goes. Hes out of form but I think hed grow about a foot and actually lead this rabble.
