Fantastic try

Pace and precision

Aus 10-14 NZ
38 mins

BBC online is obviously running a minte behind..

Loving the passion of the Kiwis.

A scintillating 40 mins of world class sport

14-10 after 38 minutes.

Great half of footy by the kiwis. Hopefully we can seal the deal

Best 40 minutes of sport I've seen all year.

@sparky Agreed. By far. Loved the shot of the coaches box after that try.

Why do I have hope. Fool me a dozen times...

Building us up to tear us down

That was a great first half. Let's go win this!

Make the wlc bastads have to pay to send the ausies home early

Hey @Crazy-Horse, you know you wanna...

Only concern for me , the points don’t reflect our general dominance ,

And the Aussies do have that ability to turn opportunities into points whenever they get them

fluffybunny.

Wow is that a try??

Hiku says come on down, @Crazy-Horse

Dum dum dum de de dum dum

Shame

No try

Try!

Must be a try! Klein u farken cheat

That was some football VAR slide rule bullshit

@sparky said in Rugby League World Cup:

Try!

Overturned. VAR bollocks that. Not clear and obvious.

Correct call

That’s why the technology is there

Look how quick the decision was made though

Handbags and a shove and the good guys get the penalty.

Tremendous defence

Great attitude from the Kiwis. Not taking any shite tonight.

Yeah have to begrudgingly respect the call made on how it looks and not searching each frame for clear and obvious.

Fuck the Aussies are patient

Not in it the first 13 mins of the second half, one mistake, and take the lead

Aus 16-14 NZ
55 mins

Ref gives the Aussies a get out of jail card.

16-14 to Aussies. Shame, because the Kiwis have been dominant for most of this match.

NZ need some changes

Lost their pep

Few kiwi forwards with hands on hips walking

How far behind are you boys?

I’m at 57:45

57:00

That should have been a pen to NZ

Ref is stitching us up. Should have had a neutral

Kiwis have been diaappointing in the last ten minutes and have lowered their intensity.

Nope

Having a great match

Kiwis cling on. The pendulum has swung. I fear this might get ugly in the last 20 minutes.

My fear too. Great first half but poor second so far and feels like it’s getting worse
