Rugby League News. The matches pit the Australian Indigenous team against the New Zealand Maori side, with a capacity crowd of 25, expected to be in attendance at Queensland Country Bank Stadium.
Here, we take a look at some talking points and the teams ahead of the clashes in Townsville…. The New Zealand Maori team has a history stretching back to the birth of rugby league Down Under, having first toured Australia in and been a regular opponent for international touring teams throughout the years.
The Indigenous All Stars were looking to look for the try, but had already indicated they were going for the penalty goal. While it was a somewhat disappointing end to the match, with all players appearing deflated by the result, if all games this season can be that absorbing, the season will be incredible.
West Tigers forward Zane Musgrove has been sin binned after a high shoulder charge in what has been a super defensive game in North Queensland. The Indigenous All Stars hold a lead over the Maori All Stars, despite the New Zealanders having had 61 per cent of possession and putting all the pressure on the Indigenous side. But the game has threatened to boil over throughout the night, no more so than when Musgrove ran out of the line and hammered Tyrell Fuimaono.
In the play before, he had been left on the ground shaking his finger, with the commentators calling it "badly dislocated". They believe he put it back in himself, while Greg Alexander said "Michael Maguire sitting at home certainly won't be happy. The NRL All Stars game has delivered another spinetingling introduction with the haka and the Indigenous war dance going head-to-head in a stunning moment. Greg Alexander added that the players had spoken about how important it was to them to play for their people, adding "It's one of the real highlights of the event is the war dance from both teams.
The Maori one was frightening. Michael Ennis said: "Goosebumps stuff. Brilliant from both. We start our season with so much passion, so much skill, so much entertainment but that war cry from both just gives you goosebumps and drags you straight back into the season. It's electric.

Clearly Nate was busy defecating in a hall way when the class was given on the bonus try concept. And we have a game! Just how good is this guy going to be? Close game, just one quarter remaining. The Indigenous side seems to have weathered the storm and are slowly starting to look like they have one more try in them … and they do.
Who else but Thurston splits two defenders wide out before slipping a sublime around-the-corner ball to give Jamie Soward a 40m run to the line … and his own post try celebration. And the game was iced. So this game, to me, was a hell of an experience.
