    RWC QF 2 NZ v FRA (Millenium Stadium) 18th Oct 0600 AEDT

    1997, ABs scored 55 against the boks at Eden park. Was unthinkable at that time when winning by 10 was comprehensive

    RWC QF 4 AUS v SCO (Twickenham) 19th Oct 0200 AEDT

    I reckon this is a banana skin for the wobbs. The scots know what to to do to disrupt us, and they'll take the points if Joubert gives them kick able penalties. I'm tipping wobbs by 6 but I reckon this will be close

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    Agreed Dan except brown wasnt pinned, he was untouched by any other wobbs, he was bending over AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to pick the ball. Anyway hearing shortly. I'll only grumble a little if he gets one week.

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    As someone said on the front page, I was worried until the England winger chipped and chased from his own 22, and the kick went out on the full. That was an awful option and showed the fragility in their game/confidence. As for Phipps, one pass was a shocker but the other required some Aus...

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    From looking at the video/text posted by Slim. Hooper is guilty of not grasping the pommy player. Using your arms (or one arm) doesn't make charging into a ruck ok by itself. Hard to argue with that. But why is it a red card offense, which is what the citing says? A yellow card would seem...

    Wallabies v. Springboks, 18th July 2015, Suncorp, Brisbane

    I reckon skelton would have look good last night had he come on for the last 25 mins against a tiring boks. our forwards (all of them) started the game poorly. Our breakdown work was inaccurate. Our scrum was under pressure. OUr runners struggled to make the gain line. We won very few...

    Wallabies v. Springboks, 18th July 2015, Suncorp, Brisbane

    We came home with a wet sail, but I also thought the boks faded badly and their subs weren't as good as ours so I wouldn't read too much into those who finished vs those who started. We still need an 8. I'm not sure we can start with pocock and hooper

    Refereeing decisions

    What are the protocols for the use of the video ref in rugby? I reckon sport suffers when the video ref is used to review critical incidents in the game, looking for illegalities or otherwise frame by frame or on slo mo. It makes the adjudication of those incidents fundamentally different to...

    Waratahs v Highlanders, semi-final, Saturday 27 June

    Frustrating game for a tahs fans. Passes to no one. Kicks not going out. Shambolic line out. And this was how we started the game. We gifted soft tries to the Clan and never got into any rythm or structure and didnt deserve to win with so many errors. Foley was under pressure and played...

    Big change to eligibility rules

    Good post BDA. To extend your point, it allows the ARU to keep getting some benefits (on and off field) from well established test players that the ARU have previously invested heavily in while letting someone else pick up most of their current (high) salaries. Super rugby will suffer some but...
