PNG vow to upset World Cup odds
Quote:
Papua New Guinea coach Adrian Lam says his team can cause a surprise at the World Cup, despite having Australia, New Zealand and England in their pool.
Lam's team play England on 25 October before taking on favourites Australia and the Kiwis.
With three teams from Pool A qualifying for the semi-finals, many have already written off the Kumuls' chances.
"Don't worry about England, New Zealand and Australia. We've a plan and the boys will play to that plan," said Lam.
"Our first clash is against England, and we will be preparing well for that and we are going to give them a game that PNG will be proud of."
Former Wigan scrum-half Lam, speaking to the Sydney Roosters website, added: "After the tour of France and Wales last year, the Prime Minister's XIII and Origin games, I have a game plan which the boys that were selected will carry out."
