Former Kangaroo Steve Renouf (pictured) says he believes the Kangaroos are on a hiding to nothing when they meet New Zealand in Perth on Saturday evening.
Australian coach Mal Meninga has taken on the Australian job with a mandate to not only rebuild the team but also to repair the team culture after some unsavoury losses in recent years.
Renouf says with the Kiwis picking a massive forward pack for incoming coach David Kidwells debut, the Aussies will need to be on their game from the kickoff if they’re to be a chance against the worlds top ranked Rugby League nation.
