Rugby League - Kiwis
-
12-6 to the Kangaroos at halftime.
If AFB was still a Kiwi we'd be in the lead as we had so much ball 5m out and couldn't get over the line.
Kini has been great (fearless in defence for a smaller guy), CNK is a non existent 6. Tommy Turbo is in pretty unstoppable mood, Timoko on an unfamiliar side is having trouble dealing with him.

Oh look, SJ is in charge of the attack and it's shit.
Haven't seen that before

22-10 final score to the Roos.
Kiwis actually did a bit better than what I thought we would when I saw the named 17.
We still need an actual second half though. Nikorima in at 6, CNK to centre in place of Hiku, move Timoko back to his side.
Stacey seemed a bit stubborn not bring Nikorima earlier and at 6. I love CNK but he's not a 6 and he didn't get into the game.
@SBW1 I doubt Tonga can score the long range tries that the Roos did. I saw enough today to be confident for the Tonga game.

I think Australia are entitled to be a bit disappointed in today. A win under their belts already, and while they too are down a couple of troops, that's a team of origin players, while what was that kiwi team? And yet it was a 12 point win.
Mal is a shit coach. Lucked in to a generational Queensland team that he basically only had to stay put of the way and they would win.

We are on the rebuild and was good to see some of our younger players step up to test level.
The big name origin players for OZ had their moments but I was expecting a 20+ point drumming when I saw who they had
