    @virgil I think they should open an inquiry in to the state of Fifita's mental state. He has an ongoing battle of mental illness and he may not have been the right person to make that last carry in a pressure situation....

    he's also a fat grub, so fuck that guy.

    I might be wrong but I feel you commented without knowing the context of my comment but I like the intensity. If this was american sport you'd get a pat on the arse.

    @mariner4life now i feel like the guy that came last and still got an award...

    Fafita ruined my MMT love affair to be honest. Everytime I watched Tonga I'd be happy they were doing so well and then he'd come into the play. It was a serious conflict for me. Hating Kidwell and Blair took up alot of my hate quota but I still had enough to actually be happy it was him who had the "loose carry".

    @raznomore when Tonga played up here he copped a monumental amount of abuse from the Aussies in the crowd. Then promptly went on the field and played like shit. Dropped the ball, and gave away 4 straight penalties

    Totally beyond the pale. I hope the Barristers are taken to task for this irresponsible and unreasonable attack on a referee who cannot really defend himself.

    They were the feel good story of the RLWC, but (some of) their fans are fuckwits.

    Fifita didn't help, but the fans ruined it for me, well, the ones that carried on like dickheads anyway. A couple of my Tongan mates were actually pretty embarrassed by it all.

    But yeah, hating Kidwell took up most of my mate. It almost reached Hammettuer levels (apologies @Chris-B if you alert went off), but it was the car crash I could see happening months out which kind of took the edge off I guess.

    On the plus side, if Kidwell really has done a Hammett, then pretty much any of us should be able to coach them to a four nations victory next year. 🙂

    Unfortunately, I fear the systems Kidwell has put in place - "the We is the Key" - might not quite be what's required.

    (Well, you did purposely trigger my alarm!) 🙂

    I always thought Kidwell was a bit over rated as a player as well ,

    An average centre at the roosters , an ok second rower at the storm where he played his role ok , surrounded by great players ,

    Then his big moment in the kiwi jersey was that tackle on Mason , but the reality was , it was an accidental head clash that dropped Mason , top of Kidwells head accidentally hit Masons on the cheekbone , his technique running into the tackle was actually horrible , thought he got way too much credit for something flukey .

    I hope Kidwell gets shown the door as this would be karma after the role he and Roy Asotasi played in getting rid of Gary Kemble as KIwis coach.

    Half time: Australia lead 12 to 10, but this score doesn't reflect the game. Kiwiferns were dominant for most of the 40 minutes, but should have scored more. Aussies got two chances and took them.

    Aussies win the women's final, beating the Kiwiferns 23 to 16. Deserved, but dammit. The Kiwiferns had such a good tourney, would have been awesome to finish it with a victory and take the silverware.
