Meninga to entertain

ARE you not entertained?

Coach Mal Meninga may not exactly be carrying a sword and shield like Russell Crowe in Gladiator but it’s the war cry he wants his Kangaroos to adopt as they surge through the World Cup.

To that end, he’s revealed meeting with referees boss Tony Archer to urge a more free-flowing game ahead of today’s quarter-final against Samoa after being upset with the officiating in last week’s win over Lebanon.

“It’s knockout so we want to make sure it’s well-reffed, fair and the ruck speed is how it should be,” Meninga said.
