it's pretty hard to watch. even the best of games.
has anyone ever asked a rugby die hard if they watch league???? and their answer would be, "I find Rugby League too stop and start"
too stop and start???? you just had three goes at setting a scrum and wasted 5 minutes. collapse, reset. collapse, reset.
I can't watch it mate it frustrates me to much how the refs never ever seem to call a "knock on" yet they just blow the whistle for something random as. As for the woful wallabies themselves they are fcuking dreadful mate, they continue to pick the same players each year, no wonder why they get belted, half of the team aren't even Aussies they are Fijians and the other half that aren't Fijians they are League players. Like serious Izzy is their best player and he'd never even played before he went there. Curtis Rona is playing on the wing tonight, he was at the bulldogs 8months ago now he's in the Wallabies turn it up mate. Even Korabetie got a game. ARU is fcuking shithouse.
"It's not so much the result in trials, but what you did to get there. Parra showed that they are up for a challenge, especially coming from behind to win. That's what would excite Ryles at the moment. Not winning trial games, not even winning the…"
"I reckon when Ryles signed TDS last year he didn't think that Smith had what it takes to be a topline dummy half. It would be interesting to see what his thoughts are now, as Smith has come on in leaps and bounds. I think Parra definitely is better…"
"Trial form means nothing but it certainly doesn't hurt to win either. I mean that's precisely what both teams are trying to do in a trial match. Winning is infectious. "
It doesn't change the better part of the last three years, but we won the 2026 Witzer Pre-season Challenge on the back of some encouraging trial form.
Gus Gould says trial results mean nothing. What matters is physicality, fitness and energy within…

Good fightback here, credit to them, they could have rolled over in the 2nd half.
