THEORY FOR THE NEXT TRI GAME

[FROM A TO B]

Who would Australia rather play in the Final?
NZ, hitting a run of form and rested after a week off.
GB, just taking a physical battering and if through to the final would be their 5th big game on the trot.

don't be surprised to see a physical game with a GB win and then a complete humiliation in the final.
Sorry for being cynical and it is only a theory, but what do you think?

The Aussies will want to win all their remaining games. They won't care who they play in the final because they will believe they can win it. They have the winning mentality that we lack.

I got the sneaking suspicion on saturday when decisions disallowed trys, that maybe the Aussies are fearing they might lose to a British side first time in 34 years so would rather risk the Kiwis. but then again i like a good conspiracy

The Aussies have been stung by the criticism following the first defeat. They will be fired up. Realistically, the competition is set up for GB to fail. No team can play 4 hopefully 5 consecutive weeks of internationals. Particularly whilst the other nations get weeks off.

Personally, I would much rather play the Poms than the Kiwis in the final, however it wont happen.

We will win by a big margin on Saturday night and therefore adios to GB and then we'll be after redemption against the Kiwis in the final to regain our crown.

Next 2 weeks will be big weeks for Australian Rugby League.

Plus the fact that Stuart wants to get his team lineup right before heading into a final.
