    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    Yeah, and with that insane and all time epic NRL GF finish we just had, you can guarantee that the wallabies won't get the air time the deserve now. It's almost like North Qld manufactured a miracle full time siren leveller and 81st min win just to spite the wallabies lol Sent from my iPad...

    It'd be devastating for their chances against Uruguay Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    It's a tough one... A match like this should have some serious cut through value given it's against "the old enemy" in a World Cup tournament held in their own backyard that led to maximum humiliation for them. Yet for all that, it looks like its still having trouble breaking through outside of...

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    To be honest I feel the same... I just think that the lack of any genuinely world class and settled halves will hurt us. That said, England look like they're not dealing with the pressure too well, and we have some decent attacking weapons. So if we manage to start well and get an early (and...

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    Wow... you have to love the English. Not even players in our League team would say that about England in an League test, and the poms haven't won a series v Australia for 50 years in that game! Seriously, if we win it'll be just so much sweeter now.

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    I have to say I'm expecting an England win just on the basis of goal kicking and the creativity of our mid field. I'm a pessimist though and so always expect the worst, so I'm hoping this is one of those times when I'm dead wrong and Australia manage to surprise me. Either way the game has...

    Don't think this is that bad actually... both have had a tendency to under perform on the big stage.

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    This is going to be a very interesting game... I'm already super nervous about it given England's record against us lately has been pretty strong and they're tough at home. That said, it'll be hard to pick until we see the teams and the Wallabies have made some pretty massive strides in their...

    The League Media

    I've got to say, the English League journos are belligerent toward Union in a way that I don't think you see anywhere else... some like to have the odd subtle jab here, but plenty of League media types happily watch and comment on Union here. Even League die hards like Matty Johns on Triple M...

    The League Media

    To be fair it's just not the same... Moving from League to Union, and Union for an English club side is just not even remotely as big a challenge as trying to make an NFL roster at 27 with close to no serious background in American Football. The numbers in terms of aspiring athletes desperate...

    Union has slowly been pushed to the edges in the SMH, but to be fair it's pretty decent during the Super Rugby season.

    The League Media

    lol a good marketing ploy. I remember one story in the US commenting on last years All Blacks clash described them as World Cup winners in 2011, but lost it to the Kangaroos in 2013 haha. But that said, I wouldn't mind having Hayne on the wing over at the wallabies... along with Greg Inglis at...

    Bledisloe #2 - AUS v NZL, Eden Park, Auckland, August 15th

    It's close, but they haven't taken the lead at any point. I feel like Australia look in control. On the ABs I'm almost finding hard to even visualise at time when we'll beat them consistently. When they want to step it up a gear like they have the past few years after close games, they just...

    That ship sailed and sank over the horizon when the ABs hit 40+.

    Thankfully my boss has a Tongan background and she loves Rugby. The only caveat being if she's around and we're getting smashed she wants to turn it over to shitty crime shows.

    Yeah, no one has stood up have they. To'omua did last week when we were dominating up front, but that's about all you can say.

    This. It was a disappointing performance, but let's not forget who we were playing and where.

    Beale was actually bloody good wasn't he? Made some great defensive reads and was pretty solid in the few chances he had with the ball Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bit rough mate... he's preparing for a World Cup and has to try a few things with very limited time.
