  • Best game I ever watched and still the greatest rugby league memory I have as a NZer.

    This was one of the highest and lowest nights of my life. Amazing game going nuts at the tv, then got a call that my grandpa had died during second half. Kiwis made my night that little bit more easier ❤

    I remember watching this game as a young 12yr old Māori boy in NZ. Biggest upset in rugby league history. I’ve still got the poster from the NZ Herald on my wall.
  • That is the best Australian team I've ever seen fielded Slater,Thurston,lockyer,Smith,Inglis,folau n more n they still lost what a game, kiwis deserved the win indeed

    That aussie chick standing up to leave @9:32 gets me everytime I watch these highlights 🤣
  • @fpot
    The Kiwis beat an Aussie team full of future immortals. Great stuff.
  • Still one of my best sporting memories....Go the Kiwis😁
  • @taraishot100
    That Australian team was full of legends one of the proudest moments in the Kiwis history of the sport
  • @rewster7
    Biggest upset in league history, even bigger than when Tonga beat Australia. especially when you factor in that Aussie lineup, the fact that it was in Brisbane, and that Australia were pumping teams by 50 in the lead-up.

    at the time, pundits and "experts" were calling this the greatest Kangaroo team of all time. They were 8 to 1 favourites. The New Zealanders were given no chance at all.

    BEST GAME IN LIFE I LOVE WATCHING IT, ALWAYS BRING S A TEAR. PROUD KIWI.
  • Commentary: The Kiwis are now ahead , but so often they don't back it up...... Then Billy Slater throws a wild hail Mary 10m out from own try line. Talk about eating your own words , hilarious 🤣 😆
  • Lol... I love how the aussie commentator said "goodness gracious me." 🤣 when the Kiwis came up with that penalty try. 🤣

    To this day this game still hurts the AUSSIES Simply coz they had the most complete team fielded and they had the biggest names in league right across the board And lost!!
