The cuzzie bros recently beat us in the Rugger WC, Caulfield Cup and the Melbourne Cup.
On Thursday they play us in the First Test in Brisbane. We with a few new players and captain and they with a settled side. Eerily like the 1985 Brisbane Test against them where Australia was trying to rebuild after the retirements of Marsh, Lillee, Chappell G. and Kim Hughes. And it was coming straight after a losing Ashes series in England as well.
The signs are not good plus they put some Queenslanders in the side to boot. Only 6 of the Test team play for NSW including the captain and v/c. Not enough!!
Good to see Warner made v/c. He will bring a steady head and hand to the team.
At least we are not playing for a Cup!!!
