A lesson on how to play six-tackle rugby. Australia adapted to this rule change much quicker than GB. David Ward opting to run the ball himself towards four defenders on the last tackle then being caught in possession! Imagine how a coach would react to that now!

Was at this match.. Great atmosphere., aussie. Different league. Thou...

I was there too..men against boys..the gulf between the sides was frightening

Great Britain putting up a special olympics team.

32500 here for this match - i queued for over an hour outside to get one of the last tickets and watched it from the back of the stand opposite the cameras, so many in you couldn't see the whole game. Hull FC v Hull KR matches at this ground pulled up to 25000, but Hull City at the time got 3 to 4 thousand for most games.

thanx man!

Highlight of the game is 51:43 to 52:03 gripping stuff!

That’s a pretty solid Kangaroos team. Silky Steve Rogers, what a player. Brett Kenny putting King Wally on the bench. Les Boyd for a bit of intimidation. Price and Pearce for workload...and then of course Big Mal Meninga in the first of his record setting 4 Kangaroo tours.

Wally wasn't even the Kangaroos reserve back in this game. The Aussie bench was Steve Ella and John Muggleton. Both were replaced by Lewis and Ray Brown for the 2nd and 3rd tests.

There are things that I remember that stick and one of the main ones was Rex the man.

Ref .. to the Poms , you got flogged but I couldn’t do any more to help you.

When France were a powerhouse too... those were the days.

Des is the best the poms have, by a mile.

Back when rugby was rugby

One of the stands was being built

How shit was Fairbairn ? All he had to offer was cheap, late shots.

These days, Fairbairn would have been sent off, and deservedly so, for any of four or five shocking challenges.

Great Britain grubs

Gosh GB were pathetically terrible in this game. No desire to run or play the game, as shown by the fact they didn’t score a try in this game🤦🏽‍♂️
