    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.

    Australia wins the RLWC against England....6-0. Yup, just one try scored (by Cordner).

    **Roosters Relocate Headquarters To Bermuda In Effort To Stay Under Salary Cap**
    
    From Bondi to Bermuda, it’s a move that could shock the NRL to its core.
    
    The Sydney Roosters have announced that they are planning on relocating their headquarters to the small North Atlantic Island of Bermuda.
    
    It comes after the Sydney Roosters landed another big name signing in Angus Crichton and many in the sporting world were left wondering how long before the club came down in flames.
    
    Phillip Olivio who works as the Head of Accounting at the Roosters explained that this whole salary cap thing can be worked around with a little bit of smart bookkeeping.
    
    “The trick is not to go and do dumb shit like giving players boats and that like they did down in Melbourne,” he said.
    
    We asked Olivio whether the whole Parramatta Eels saga made then jump before they were pushed.  
    
    “Haha did you see what they were getting up to in Parra. They were putting these Third Party Agreements on napkins and then giving the boys cash…… Jesus Christ. Even if we stayed we wouldn’t be doing basic stuff like that.”
    
    “You gotta play smart boys. We are off to The British Territory of Bermuda so we don’t get caught for rorting this thing. That way we can get ourselves a 2000’s Melbourne Storm team that’s actually on the books,” he said.  
    
    Olivio said that fans don’t have to worry, there will be no name changes or anything of the like, only a change of backdoor process to sign good players.

    The Hayne Plane is back at Parramatta and already bringing the good scandals. He's been accused of rape while he was living his dream as a 49er in the NFL.
