TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 9 November 2009 RE: Media Summary Monday 2 November to Monday 9 November Kiwis tip Kangaroos to win Four Nations: England may have toppled world champions New Zealand but Australia will be "too good" for the host nation in this weekend's Four Nations rugby league final, according to Kiwis halfback Nathan Fien. Kiwis have no excuses for lack of ball control: You can line up all the excuses you like for the Kiwis, but in the end their defeat by England came down to pretty much one thing: they dropped too much ball… Ground a graveyard for Kiwis: Huddersfield may be the birthplace of rugby league, but it has proved near fatal to New Zealand ambitions on each of their last three visits to the West Yorkshire town… Kiwis crash out of Four Nations Cup: The Kiwis offered no excuses and no complaints after being knocked out of the Four Nations a week early 20-12 by an English side who produced their best performance on the international stage for years… Old boys fight to keep Pirates afloat: In one game it was 76-10; 70-10 in another. It was a dreadful season by anyone's standards… …but a couple of high-profile old boys hope to turn it all around. Awen Guttenbeil and Stacey Jones will coach the Pirates next season… Benji’s Brother in Arms: Clad in green and gold, Benji Marshall stood at North Harbour Stadium before kickoff of the first test between the Australian Schoolboys and the Junior Kiwis and, as the haka began, he made his decision… Mannering to lead Warriors from the front : Expect new Warriors captain Simon Mannering to be more Ruben Wiki than Steve Price in his leadership style. A surprise choice to replace Price, the 23-year-old is definitely cut from the lead-by-example mould… Kieran Foran picked ahead of Krisnan Inu: New Zealand have ignored the much-more experienced Parramatta Grand Final centre Krisnan Inu and instead handed a debut to Kieran Foran, a 19-year-old centre from Manly who has played just nine first-grade games… League bosses tighten eligibility rules: Rugby league bosses have tightened international qualification regulations in the face of mounting criticism over players switching countries too often… Inu on the outer with Kiwis: Parramatta star Krisnan Inu is no guarantee to be called up for Sunday's Four Nations rugby league test against England, despite the unavailability of centre Steve Matai with an eye injury, New Zealand coach Stephen Kearney has admitted… Kangaroos finding NRL rules don't apply in Four Nations: English referee Steve Ganson has kept the Kangaroos guessing. The Australian rugby league team has learned an important rule at the Four Nations tournament and that is normal rules do not apply. The rules to which they are accustomed, anyway… Moimoi eyes Burgess re-match: MANCHESTER - New Zealand prop FuiFui Moimoi has warned of his rematch with England youngster Sam Burgess this Sunday (NZT): "If he's there ... it'll be on"… Kearney wants more from Kiwis: TOULOUSE - New Zealand coach Stephen Kearney called for a complete performance in this week's Four Nations clash with England after a storming second half saw off France 62-12 in Toulouse yesterday… PNG seal 2010 Four Nations place: Papua New Guinea qualified for the 2010 Four Nations series with a 42- 14 win over the Cook Islands in the Pacific Cup final in Port Moresby… Kiwis tip Kangaroos to win Four Nations England may have toppled world champions New Zealand but Australia will be "too good" for the host nation in this weekend's Four Nations rugby league final, according to Kiwis halfback Nathan Fien. As the Kiwis prepared for the long journey home, members of the touring party were still picking over the bones of Saturday night's surprise 20-12 loss to the English at Huddersfield's Galpharm Stadium. "They're going pretty well. I don't know how they'll go against the Aussies though," St George Illawarra's Fien said of Tony Smith's England side. "I think the Aussies will be a bit too good. "(England) have got a young side too. They showed a lot of enthusiasm but they still had the likes of (Adrian) Morley and those big guys leading them forward all night." Fien said the Kiwis died at their own hand, with a fumble from the restart after their 44th minute try indicative of their misfiring evening. "We've been together for about five weeks now and that was probably our worst performance - it was really disappointing," he said. "We were too far off the pace. They just got us around the rucks and their field position built up. I thought, when we scored that try in the second half, we could turn it around but I guess it's a credit to their defence. They held really strong. "We just couldn't get anything going." He said the mood in the dressing sheds at fulltime on Saturday was "a little bit emotional". "A lot of hard work goes into all the preparations (by) the coaches behind the scenes, the medical staff. It was really just thanking everyone. "We had a number of debutants throughout the tournament. It was just thanking those guys for putting their hands up and everyone did New Zealand proud. "But with Papua New Guinea and Wales winning southern and northern hemisphere competitions held concurrently with the Four Nations and the World Cup holders failing to make the final, Fien said international league had never been in such a strong position. "It's good that international rugby league's getting stronger," he said. "France put a number of good performances together, as well. They showed a lot of spirit and I've heard they had seven or eight players out as well. "It's only good for rugby league." (Source: Steve Kilgallon www.stuff.co.nz , Monday 9 November) Kiwis have no excuses for lack of ball control You can line up all the excuses you like for the Kiwis, but in the end their defeat by England came down to pretty much one thing: they dropped too much ball. Failing to control possession in league is just plain suicide. The Kiwis players wrote their own ticket home a week early from the Four Nations tournament. Coach Stephen Kearney might well hear a bit of rustling and pecking outside his hotel door this morning because a few chickens came home to roost yesterday. It has more to do with the difficulties of weekly newspaper deadlines than poor judgment, but it was still an interesting exercise to open a Sunday newspaper and read a nice cuddly story about Kearney's coaching ability shortly after his side had capitulated in Huddersfield. There was nothing wrong with the piece. Kearney is a good coach. But the timing was well off - serendipitous, really, given the way the Kiwis' backline functioned. Or rather didn't. Rotation has a bad rap in this country, but one philosophy seldom questioned is that in tournament play it's prudent to rest some key players against the minnows. Doing so takes those players out of harm's way, provides a chance for fringe players to push their case and provides welcome rest for weary legs. That said, playing the same side each week takes the possibility of an embarrassing upset out of play and helps build continuity and cohesion. A Kiwis side already light on experience could ill afford losing Steve Matai to the eye injury he suffered in Toulouse, while the selection of Kieran Foran ahead of Krisnan Inu as his replacement was a gamble that failed. The Kiwis have enjoyed some success blooding young players before they are really ready. Loose international eligibility rules and the desire to get players into the fold who might otherwise end up in green-and-gold is a driving factor in NZRL's pro-active selection policy. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Junior Sa'u were this year's two big success stories, but Foran turned out to be pushing the boat out too far. The promising Manly half floundered at centre, where he was carved up by Chris Bridge for the decisive English try. Inu should have played. End of story. The other returning chook was Lance Hohaia, who pretty much ran around like one under a succession of testing bombs. Hohaia is the best bench player in the game, from where he can slot seamlessly into the halves or provide an explosive shift at dummy half. But he's not a fullback. That said, Hohaia has turned in some wonderful displays in the No 1 shirt. But most of them - the World Cup final and the man-of-match effort in the recent draw with the Roos included - have been a case of the little man triumphing over adversity. He makes blunders that scream "I am not a fullback" but recovers with a grace that adds "but I am still a damned good player". The Kiwis have no shortage of specialist options at fullback. It's time to use one. Ideally, the first choice would be Brent Webb, the star of the '05 and '06 Tri-Nations campaigns. Webb was a genius and it would be a shame if we'd seen the last of the Torres Strait Islander in a Kiwis jersey. Sadly, that is likely to be the case. A career-threatening back injury suffered two years ago could well mean his eyes are now set on squeezing club pay cheques out of what years remain.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 28 October 2008 RE: Media Summary Wednesday 29 October to Monday 03 November 2008 Slater takes place among the greats: AUSTRALIA 52 ENGLAND 4. Billy Slater last night elevated himself into the pantheon of great Australian fullbacks with a blistering attacking performance that left his coach and Kangaroos legend Ricky Stuart grasping for adjectives. Along with Storm teammate and fellow three-try hero Greg Inglis, Slater turned on a once-in-a-season performance to shred England to pieces and leave any challenge to Australia's superiority in tatters. It also came just six days after the birth of his first child, a baby girl named Tyla Rose. Kiwis angry at grapple tackle: The Kiwis are fuming a dangerous grapple tackle on wing Sam Perrett went unpunished in last night's World Cup rugby league match but say they won't take the issue further. Wing Sam Perrett was left lying motionless after the second tackle of the match at Skilled Park, thanks to giant Papua New Guinea prop Makali Aizue. Replays clearly showed Aizue, the Kumuls' cult hero who plays for English club Hull KR, wrapping his arm around Perrett's neck and twisting it. Kiwis flog Kumuls: New Zealand 48 Papua New Guinea NG 6. A possible hamstring injury to Kiwis dynamo Benji Marshall threatened to overshadow his side's big win over Papua New Guinea at Skilled Park last night. Arguably the last superstar left in Stephen Kearney's squad, in the absence of show-stoppers like Roy Asotasi, Frank Pritchard and Sonny Bill Williams, Marshall is widely considered the Kiwis' great white hope.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 14 April 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 07 April to Tuesday 14 April 2009 Give us a chance: WITH France joining Australia, Great Britain and New Zealand to make up an international quad-nations series this year, Fiji Bati centre Darryl Millard has called on the Pacific Nations to be considered too. After the 2008 Rugby League World Cup shake up of the international calendar by the Rugby League International Federation, it has been proposed that a Pacific Cup be held this year. The winner of the tournament enters the 2010 Rugby League Four Nations tournament (consisting of Australia, New Zealand, England and a qualifying nation). A Pacific Cup is also proposed to be held in 2011. Jones not available for Kiwis: He still has that magic touch but little general Stacey Jones has ruled himself out of contention for New Zealand's clash with Australia next month at Lang Park. The scheming halfback said he would not be available for selection for the Brisbane match which takes place on May 8, the day after his 33rd birthday. After one year out of rugby league, Jones made a shock return to the NRL this season and has shown he still has a knack for creating tries. Linwood win 17-try see-saw: Former Warrior Kane Ferris scored a match-winning try on the stroke of fulltime as the Linwood Keas snuck home in a 94-point rugby league thriller against east-side arch rival Aranui. Linwood's Canterbury Bulls hooker Nathan Sherlock and Aranui Eagles back Tim Rangihuna both scored four tries as the Keas clung to a 48-46 victory at Rugby League Park on Saturday.
