Kenedy had great attacking skiklls, Tallis was more than a hardman.He had real attacking skills. Hindmarsh with the greatest respect is a workhorse.<e>...

<t>I am as annoyed with the ban as anyone, he should've missed the rest of the comp as well as been sent off in that game, however it is not just the aussies that have ruled on his punishment. There are equal numbers from each nation involved in the process. If it was just up to the Aussies he proba...

He's gorgeous woz!!! The kit really suits him, maybe we'll see him pull on one in the big league in the future.

<r>Mason is extremely overrated. He has trouble holding the ball, doesn't use his size, and never runs at anyone who's more than half his size. I was at the game last night and there were plenty of people giving it to him, including Aussies, over what he did. It was disgraceful. As for the guy defen...

<r>Vella is not the most amazing player in the game i'll admit that but he's definitely not a waste to have in the team. He copped a lot of bagging when he was out of form and then when everyone found out it was because he had been playing with cancer they were all wishing him the best. Yet through ...

<r>The whole thing is ridiculous if you ask me. <br/> <br/> In my opinion you should have to play for the country you were either born in or have spent the majority of your life and playing days in. If you are born in NZ you play for NZ unless you have been living in Aus since you were 2 or somethin...
