A rampant Australia have crushed New Zealand 34-8 to regain the Four Nations championship with a ruthless display at Anfield.Mal Meningas team ran in six tries and returned to the top of the world rugby league rankings after over-running a disappointing Kiwis side, who meekly surrendered the title they won in 2014.The Kangaroos made their intentions clear after just two minutes when Trent Merrins huge shot on Jordan Rapana dislodged the ball and from the resulting scrum, Darius Boyd found Blake Ferguson with superb cut-out pass for the Sydney Roosters star to score.New Zealand responded in a positive fashion with Adam Blair and Jason Taumalolo making strong runs to break deep into the Australian half only for Shaun Kenny-Dowall to drop the ball when it looked easier to score.Shaun Johnson then broke forward strongly but under pressure from Greg Inglis his pass fell short for Kevin Proctor and was picked up by Valentine Holmes who raced downfield to start a movement which ended with a try to Josh Dugan.Matters were compounded for the Kiwis midway through the opening stanza when Trent Merrin crashed over from close range.After adding the extra two points Johnathan Thurston then grubbered for Josh Dugan to dart in between three flat-footed Kiwi defenders to get his hand to the ball to give him a double and the Kangaroos a 24-0 lead at the break.The second period started in a similar fashion with man of the match Boyd, who is still to taste defeat in 22 internationals, scoring when he finished off a sweeping move by sliding over in the right corner.With 55 minutes played the Kiwis finally woke up and troubled to scorers with Jordan Kahu sliding over and he added his second just after the hour mark.However, any hopes of a miraculous comeback were diminished when five minutes from time Boyd Cordner scrambled over for a sixth four-pointer, converted by Thurston.We set out to play well and get the world ranking back, we want to be the best and it is good to get the win tonight, Boyd told the BBC.Mal has brought of pride back to the jersey.Australian halfback Cooper Cronk was named man of the tournament.

Fans who want to customize their favorite teams jerseys with Harambe on the back can do so once again as of Thursday, after the name mistakenly appeared on a retailers list of banned words.ESPN has learned that an official with a Major League Baseball team contacted Fanatics, concerned that fans were customizing their jerseys with the name of the gorilla killed at the Cincinnati Zoo that has become an internet phenomenon. Fanatics runs online retail for the four major North American leagues. Fanatics spokesman Meier Raivich said that a company employee proactively added Harambe to a frequently updated list that instantly rejects the word when a fan tries to customize it on the nameplate on the back of a jersey.Harambe was subsequently added to the banned list for the other leagues, including the NFL, which received the majority of the blame on social media Wednesday even though league officials had nothing to do with the decision.As word began to circulate of the banning, Fanatics officials decided that Harambe didnt belong on the list, which includes thousands of words, made up mostly of profane and slang words.dddddddddddd On Thursday morning, Harambe was removed from the list.Harambe the gorilla was killed by a zoo worker May 28 after a 3-year-old boy climbed into the habitat and was dragged by the animal. The incident was captured on video and quickly went viral.The gorilla quickly gained cult status as an internet meme. Last month, a fan ran onto the field at Fenway Park in a Harambe jersey. Last week, New York Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard wore an RIP Harambe shirt to the Cincinnati Zoo, and this week, the UMass Lowell soccer team is having Harambe Night and giving out stuffed gorillas.Social media support for the gorilla was so strong that the zoo deleted its Twitter account last month.
