[QUOTE="Amobokoboko, post: 564677, member: 35515"] This weekend there are no NRl games scheduled due to the ANZAC test match. The match will be played in Canberra, which will be host a test match for the first time. I really like test matches. They always bring out the best in players and the intensity that it brings along always give me Goosebumps.</SPAN></SPAN> As a true Kiwi fan, I’m crossing my fingers for this one. During their last encounter, at the end of last year, the Kangaroos proved to be too strong for the Kiwi’s. Although they did put up a good fight.
