Quote ="RhinoNeil"I think a bit of biff would go down pretty well, however you look at the likely starting line up and we aint really got any fighters except the captain, Peacock. The days of the hard nuts like Sculthorpe, Farrell, Barrie Mc, Fielden have long gone.'"
Peacock has always been a slapper. Throws girl punches. Not sure where he gets his reputation from, never seen him do anything except exchange a few punches with Willie Mason. Every other fight he's had has been an embarrassment to him.
Also I don't really believe in the whole loss aspect side of things. A biff is over in 30 seconds, the probability of someone getting properly pummelled is almost non existent.
Just because our boys don't fight doesn't mean they couldn't either. I reckon someone like Ellis could throw them if forced, I fancy he has heavy hands.
Carvell, Graham, Heigheington, Morley, Ellis, Peacock. There's definitely players who could hold there own if they go looking for the fist fight.
It's not like the Aus team is filled with fighters either. Gallen, Scott, Watmough, Galloway and the other Scott have a mean streak, but they're not invincible. Issac Luke has traded off with 2 of the Aus enforcers in Gallen and Shillington and come out of both smiling.
Maybe I'm over thinking it but I don't think we're incapable, just need the mentality. Nothing a few words from coach couldn't change. If McBanana tells the boys to set it off then they'll set it off
