Briton David Hobbs was banned for three games and fined $1000 for his elbow on Greg Conescu in the dying seconds. Hobbs sent one of Conescu’s front teeth flying. However the Aussie declared himself available for all footie after visiting a dentist three days later.

Using the elbow is a penalty? How you supposed to get some elbow room then?

I'm pleased with the added intensity with which Great Britain have brought to this second test, it was unmitigated hostility that lost them the first test. The focus and calm is evidenced by their discipline in general play. Fatty vautin played with the keenness of youth, gene miles always good going forward providing the backs with room and options and meninga was rather quiet really, but I love the nostalgia, thanks for the upload 😅

@@jacktattisWell, in 1984 Britain was hardly a superpower, and had long since lost it's empire. That term isn't used today. So when do you think "Great" should've been discarded? I'm just surprised is all that it was still in use so late.. maybe only in rugby terminology? And I'm not woke and love my pommy mates - rule Britannia.

It’s been called Great Britain since England and Scotland joined in about 1700. Later GB and Ireland. Now GB and Northern Ireland, as in United Kingdom of. Doesn’t mean it’s great, just a sense of bigger than just England, I.e the island of England, Wales and Scotland.

A lot of memories here. The games changed in 40 years. Not so free flowing as it is today. No so big on 5th tackle kicks Wingers built like tanks that can dive and place a ball with pin point accuracy.. Imagine if they had the punch ups like they did then, half the players would of been in the sin bin or sent off. I am glad .that kind of violence is not tolerated or common now in these big clashes. The beginning of the reign of King Wally Love or hate him he was a brilliant player for his time along with a few others in that squad.

Memories of an age when hard men played hard games and women were actual real, biological, women. It wasn't perfect, but it was definitely sane, natural and made sense. So, thanks heaps, brutha. 😃
