    Ryan James forgets the words to the 'Acknowledgement of Country', and Izzy Hoyland off of Neighbours does the anthem. This is a classic already.

    That is the worst bit of refereeing I've ever seen. Ricky Stuart is going to explode.

    Say what you want about football, but footballers would be kicking right off in these circumstances. Not giving loser speeches praising the opposition. No wonder you couldn't close it out.

    I reckon they book off a list of bands who could be in Manchester at relatively short notice.

    They just got flattened the fannies. Luke Thompson will be the best prop in the NRL three years from now.

    Other than NZ v South Africa, this game is what has me most excited. There is something very naturally likable about this plucky Japanese team. Are they still the underdogs for this match?

    If they have then it's probably down to them having nothing to do with it.

    I was going to mention him earlier. Assuming the superstars (James Tedesco etc.) are out of reach now, he's surely the most obvious target in the code.

    Happy for more wingers as our system hasnt produced one for 10+ years. I wouldnt mind a couple of props for 6 and 8 for us. Also Id take Kalyn Ponga back in a heart beat.

    David Fifita would be good at 12.

    Where did/would Kalyn Ponga play? His defending is appalling so I'm not sure where he works, to say he's always hinting at giving the All Blacks a crack. Damien Cook would have been a good scrum-half poach if he was a bit younger, and it might be worth waving a bit of that loose Israel Folau money at Valentine Holmes before he makes a decision. I'm surprised they haven't ever gone for Daniel Tupou as a wing project.

    Beale has been a disgrace 15 in defence with tackling and kicking. Ponga has to be more of an option with ball in hand?

    Id take holmes but Id prefer a couple of forwards with Union back ground.

    I don't think I've ever seen Ponga kick the ball out of his hands. Mitchell Moses would be a good bet there.

    But for a couple of bad errors they’d be strolling this anyway, they’ve GB constantly pinned.

    There is some sort of pointless dispute between their association and whoever, so they've just put a side together and turned up. That second try was clearly offside, but they've BOTTLED disallowing it.

    Lachlan Coote is a fanny who shouldn't be playing.

    He seemed to make up his mind straight away but I thought offside too even on the replay.

    Great Britain haven't offered anything in this. Half the side picks itself, but he's somehow picked the other half completely wrong.

    Sam Burgess having to chuck it is a shitter. I wonder whether it being the shoulder of his ball-carrying arm is what's done it. Either way, fiver on Souths missing the eight next year.

    That Manly lad stabbing somebody at a 'church dance' has probably set the new standard there, so he's had a great week.

    I'm not sure why they have to ban him. It's not like any club would actually take a punt on him when half of their sponsors would bail overnight if they did.

    There would be a few violent offenders that I would punt before his named appeared on my list.

    Best result for the game. Hopefully Tonga can go on a run of wins and if the NRL have any decency left they should be organising either a 3 game tour of Tonga or a quad nations style in Tonga.

    It's pretty clever from their perspective, and they seem to be one of the few clubs that knows what they're doing across the board, presumably owing to the lack of 'rugby league people' in senior positions. The stake won't ever really be worth that much, but if he goes then other big names will be more inclined to down the line (that David Beckham comparison seems like a good one). I thought Jarryd Hayne was a lock for their first marquee signing, but... Yeah.
