Bird = $hit... I can't wait to hear everyone rave about how good Gasnier was tonight. The ball has been on his side of the field all night. A crippled kid could make breaks against the Kiwis defence.

Everytime bird got the ball, there were options on the outside, but all he did was put the ball under his arm like a forward and run to the defense each time. Hes useless. This Australian team couldve been the most exciting team to watch ever, but it was a massive disappointment. I just hope they select bird as NSW's 6 now haha.

Im not sure of the argument or wateva between u and coxy, but that game wouldve sold out in brisbane, so 34K is not something to be proud of...its passable IMO.

That's the problem with guys like you and Coxy etc. You COMPARE it to Brisbane. Don't compare, just look at the crowd for an International game and judge it on it's own merits. 34,000 for a Test match is absolutely tremendous, ESPECIALLY at the bloody SCG with over-priced tickets and on a very cold night.
Sydney fans turned up tonight and good on them.[/quote:3ttqd6mo]
Sydney sucks, It could be snowing in Brisbane and we would still get a sell out crowd for an international. I know your A blue but you have to face it , your State SUCKS!

What I took from this game;
NZ will be strong come the World Cup.
(yes I know Sterlo said it first) NSW will be fools to attack our flanks come SoO, either in the air or running it. They must go up the middle. That said, Bird HAS to be the NSW 5/8th. NSW have plenty of backrowers, they won't miss him there, throw him in next to Anasta (Gidley on bench....maybe Finch too).
Obviously the QLD pack will need to control the ruck, however, I hope our backrowers saw how easy NZ went up the middle against the majority NSW pack tonight.
Gallen and Bird are the two dirtiest players in the history of the NRL.
So yeah, all in all, not much new I guess.
