just seen the prices and 'northern union from scratch at 10/11 looks highly tempting. this is the centenary test match commemorating the tour of 1907 under league rules being played in warrington on saturday. kiwis are building a new team with upcoming players for the world cup, but they were annihilated by the kangaroos 58-0 in wellington last saturday. heaviest defeat on their own turf in donkeys years from memory. there will be some older players making an appearance and a guest aussie i think, but great britain should have enough to beat them. maguire is set to be given a chance to prove he belongs in the starting line up and if he does half aswell saturday than he did in the grand final then the kiwis will find it hard to cope. the line ups are not concrete yet but the british squad looks more settled than the team the 'all golds' will be fielding. bear in mind this will be scored like the original (3pts try, 2 for penalties, drop goals and conversions). looks like a good bet in what should be a cracking game. _________________ top rugby tipster april 2007 |
