    The Kiwis will have to adapt to a foreign playing surface when they meet England in their rugby league test in Denver tomorrow morning

    The Kiwis will have to adapt to a foreign playing surface when they meet England in their rugby league test in Denver tomorrow morning

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The game is being played at Mile High Stadium, the home of NFL team the Denver Broncos, where the field is shorter and narrower than a regular sized rugby league field.

    Kiwis assistant coach Ben Gardiner says they will need to make sure their kicking game is on song.

    He says when kicking long they need to focus on kicking towards the touchline and look to kick high rather than relying on grubbers.

    The Kiwis had their captain's run at Mile High Stadium this morning.
