1994 Kangaroo Tour..2nd Test..GB v Australia..

[@rogerpepper4784]

Without doubt the best side we’ve ever put on the park - legends on every line

[@darrensaunders8055]

Thanks mate been really good watching these again. I remember getting up to watch them all those years ago

[@swansbear]

I’m waving a Boxing Kangaroo flag at 03:51. Was so awesome being there. Arguably THE loudest rugby league crowd I have been to. So loud that it gave you a headache. They all shut up in the second half. The Wigan supporters in front of me spent the 2nd half slagging out all the players from Yorkshire. Pretty funny! 😂

[@FlexTonga81]

🙌🏽👍🏽🇦🇺 highlight of the game was the intercept by Meninga that led to a great finish by ET

[@faronanderson2536]

That's a once in a lifetime experience for sure.Sensational stuff, mate.What a great era in Rugby League the Kangaroo Tour's were.🏉👍🏽

remind me of early games in the mornings weekend. Sunday morning neat back than

30 years ago. Real rugby league!!

[@fxt363]

How good was ET in his prime? Not just his finishing but his work rate is incredible.

[@terrywhitfield2702]

Back when Old Trafford was normal. Before they put the pitch on a hill.

[@lodersracing]

I was thinking that too!

[@Antechynus]

Shame GB never learned that thuggery doesn't make up for skill and teamwork...

[@stephenpage-murray7226]

Always been part of the game there

[@jf5738]

Thuggery is part of the game and its how we northerners like it played. as this is our sport, long may it continue. if you haven't got the stomach for it, piss off and play your own sports instead of leeching off ours.

[@seankiely975]

Wow, that crowd noise as the GB team ran out..can't get much better than that

[@swansbear]

It was so loud you actually got a headache.

[@fionapascall8471]

Pity JD picked up a knock that squad was good enough to win the ashes 0:31 0:36

[@docgonzales]

Australia with Ricky Stuart at 7 looked so much better than when Langer was playing.

[@WildOwlFilms]

Alan Langer was very poor on the tour compared to Ricky Stuart.

[@ray.shoesmith]

Langer and Lewis are the 2 most overrated players in Australian Rugby League history

[@seankiely975]

Alfie style was 😊better suited to NZ style of play and Ricky Stuart more suited to GB...I would have had Stuart and Daley as the halves and bring on Langer as a super sub

[@seankiely975]

​@@ray.shoesmithyou are seriously joking right? Which part of Sydney are you from????

[@ray.shoesmith]

@@seankiely975 If you're trying to tell me Wally Lewis was a better 5/8 than Brett Kenny and deserved his spot in the Australian side we can agree to disagree.

[@queenslander954]

OMG ..WHAT A Barry Crocker ..l Who were Australia playing .

[@clairehabib5915]

idiot

[@clairehabib5915]

typical qlda- cant understand english,cant read-or did you watch the game on mute with ya eyes shut

[@HenriHattar]

when this game was played it was 35 years since the British won a series and today, in 2024 is it 63 years and yet these British commentators STILL want to provide a hint as to how the game should be played????????????????????????

[@Holden308]

As a coach, especially at international level, you need to put personal feelings aside and pick the best team available. I'm not saying that the results would have been different (Australia winning the series), but Ellery Hanley as coach definitely let his personal animosity with Garry Schofield get in the way of team selection in the 1994 Ashes Series.

[@colinjames5643]

Won the first test without him. Lost the two he played in 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@docgonzales]

Holden308 Schofield was pants against the aussies, some guys like him and Shaun Edwards , Lee Crooks, went missing when playing the big boys, they were flat track bullies.

[@ghengisful]

Schofield should have been one of the first picked - great player. I'm an Aussie and I was getting sick of the Kangaroos trouncing the Poms. Much better watching these days - the Poms are MUCH fitter and tackle MUCH better than they did when their team was full of head-hunting rolly polly thugs in the forwards who had great ball skills and no stamina. The Kiwis are much better too and make great opposition too these days. No pushovers for the Aussies these days.

[@barrettcarr1413]

Definitely overrated both as a player (against Australia) and coach (against Australia)

[@christouvelos4897]

@@ghengisful to be fair his form was not that great in 1994, plus Leeds played they Aussies and lost 48-6 raising some doubts how some of their players would go if picked. I thought Alan Tait was very unlucky not to be picked when Davies got injured.

[@soddof7972]

Are you allowed to be ahead of the kick in league then?

[@tobinsarttrading1733]

Never happens in union right?

[@newremote]

Yes, but the chasers have to stay 10 metres away from the player receiving the ball.

[@petersimpson6110]

The English have introduced many games to the Aussies over the past 100 years.... and the Aussies learn it and then totally dominate them forever...

[@MrStevekendra]

D.R.S put a stop to your cricket dominance..... And rugby league is a very minor sport in the UK.

[@harryhatter2962]

The refereee is obviously NOT controlling the game so why not would the players not retaliate?

[@anthonymooney8636]

How did Darrell Powell get so many games no breaks no tries

[@fionapascall8471]

Never rated him but then again as a widnes fan he was usually on the end of a hiding

[@HenriHattar]

Why do they acll them "GREAT" Britain???

[@HenriHattar]

Connolly was possibly the dirtiest player on the field that day, a lot of British foul play went without penalty, for what reason I have NO clue, but for the commentators to go balistic because the British score a try to late is beyond me as well, as for McDermot going off...did he deserve to?ut WHAT did Walters do???? The British were given more than an even break and for nearly 70 years now, they have NOT been up to it ! Same with the Olympics and many other things.

[@j-pharrold5203]

Do you have footage of ET beating offiah in a foot race, before one of the the ashes test in Aus, I remember offiah slipped at the beginning,

[@shaun123387]

Yes i,m sure i,ve got it somewhere..Will upload it once i find it.

[@Holden308]

It was during the 1992 Great Britain Lions tour and it was before the match against Parramatta. The Aussie winger who won was Lee Oudenryn. There were actually rumours that surfaced that Offiah had tanked. Allegedly a few of his Lions team mates had bet a fair bit on Oudenryn as the rank outsider and according to former Kangaroos hooker Benny Elias, Martin had lost deliberately so his team mates could collect at the good odds they got from the bookies. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3yQoax9orx-jtU

[@Holden308]

Offiah did have a well publicised 100 metre match race at Wentworth Park in Sydney during the Lions 1988 tour. He took on Dale Shearer and John Ferguson (who replaced an injured Greg Alexander). Offiah won easily from Rowdy and Chicka.

[@terrylamb9083]

WAS NOT ET IT WAS PARRAMATA WINGER LEE OUDENRYN

[@j-pharrold5203]

thanks rugby fans for the correction - funny how time messes with your mind

[@iangrantham8300]

British try ..obstuction..faifly blatant..referee must have been scared to give the penalty! But it was blatant.

[@benderx8837]

no 7 for poms one of the most overated ever. surely you had better? aussie must have given them first test.made poms look stupid here. as normal.
