@J G rugby was supposed to dominate the world if it went professional early but they decided the game should just be played for fun, it was only in 90s it became professional football was before rugby and became professional in the end of the 1880s but rugby was still more popular but people realised rugby didn’t have the money so they went for sports that paid, rugby will take its top spot because it’s become professionalised and in less than a century football will be 2nd place to rugby

Incredible game. Amazing fitness. Both teams just never stoped running. Criminal that Noel Cleal got away with that coward punch on Graham, and criminal that they made him play on. He looked horrible when he came off. No wonder some of these blokes have CTE and dementia issues.

I remember this debacle, roach throwing cheap shots at KT while he was held by dowling. That was the best team we have ever had. Horrible refereeing, with an unbiased ref we would have won this game. The shot on Mark Graham was a send-off, no question, taking out our best player and captain and getting away with it.

The Tamati/Dowling brawl was an appalling sight to watch. It resembled a street fight where the cops would have arrested both of them. Some say Dowling deserved it for racially abusing Tamati. As wrong as that was, unfortunately that sort of sledging went on a lot during Kiwi/ Kangaroo games back then but you didn't see all out brawls happening all the time.
