You aussies rule in league theres no doubt about that. I remeber when we started the warriors league team there was lots of talk in NZ about how great our warriors are going to do and possibly win the final - yeah right 10 yrs on and we still haven't! But alot of us knew that from the start we just can't match yous in league closest we have come is a close 2nd.
Yeah, but we don't dominate as much as we used to anymore. NZ are very competitive now and If I recall correctly are holders of the Tri-Nations series trophy having defeated Australia in the final with Britain not making it last year. But Rugby League just does not compare with the pure game of Rugby Union.
