Originally posted by Blood On The TracksMy point is is that you guys are so starved of talent that any rugby league convert is almost immediately rushed into the national side.
oh dear
more rubbish
Sonny Bill is a star of BOTH codes. Believe he played in the RL World Cup winning side for NZ while an 'average rugby league player'.
Brad Thorn represented Oz as a RL player ~ I thought the Oz RL side was made up of supermen?

With union converts (which are usually players who have played for their country in union) they usually peel the oranges for the reserve grade local team. None of them would go within a cooeee of getting into a nat ...[text shortened]... our quarter final, semi final, and final appearance. You gotta laugh........Bwahahahahahaha !!!
Originally posted by Blood On The TracksI covered that. Union were so dazzled by getting some real rugby stars that they rushed these guys straight into their national teams. Play 2 club games then wham......you there....out the way........we're filling your spot on the national team with a rugby league convert.
so, actually no engagement with my points about Sonny Bill, Thorn, Burgess and Sailor?
hardly surprising
yep, our last World Cup was a shambles. Touched on it on the Burgess point. Certainly had a laugh as NZ dismantled you painfully in the final.
Since then we have put together the longest current unbeaten run by any top National team ...[text shortened]... gents in the Summer.
See ~ when I reply, I actually engage the points that you make
Try it
Originally posted by Blood On The TracksYes ......but at least we made the final. Your blokes couldn't even get past the round of 16 in a World cup played in your own country. Totally humiliating but a good laugh for the rest of us.

but that was over a year ago.
how long do you whine on about that
since then, for the 4th or 5th time, we (England) visited Oz (you) 4/5 months ago, and wiped the floor with you 3-0
are you ever going to address that humiliation, or too painful?
Originally posted by Very Rustywhy don't you tell your pal?? Just because I posted last? If you read back on this thread, I would wager that radio has more sports based posts than me. I only joined in latterly!
BOTT,
All this crap still belongs in the Sports forum. Are you afraid you will get torn apart in there?
