    Waratahs vs Sharks - RD5 2012

    I did the same Ptah, and I topped it off with a couple of belgian beers afterwards. It wasn't a perfect performance from the tahs but t was great to watch anyway. Lots of ball movement and risk taking from both teams. Jeez the du plessis bros are impressive live. Special mention goes to Tom...

    Waratahs 2012

    The western/members side of the stadium was pretty full, I actually called the crowd for closer to 20 so was surprised when it was under 15.

    Waratahs 2012

    Not sure I agree Waju, the sharks got a better crowd to their game V the knights last Sunday and the sharks record has been crap for, well forever really. I don't know the answer b ut it has to improve quikcly or the tahs will be in real trouble $ wise.

    Waratahs V Force - Superugby Rd 4

    So firstly the positives for the tahs, Barnes played well we just need to get him into his best position (for the tahs anyway) of 10. The first try was well executed and we remarked at the cleverness of the rolling maul to depower the Force back row (which was really their only weapon against...

    Waratahs 2012

    Agreed. It was odd that foley took Carter out to bring barnes in when barnes to 10 seemed the logical thin.

    Waratahs 2012

    We need to talk about Tpns throwing. He is still getting done for not straight a couple of times a game and it's a liability that we can keep carrying idefinitely. I also fear he is a marked man now in the same way al was at scrum time. Is it time to revert to someone other than the hooker...

    Waratahs V Force - Superugby Rd 4

    Crowd was announced as 15000 at the ground. Frustrating game, well done to the force I guesss. I don't know what else to say right now

    M foley was quoted in the news tonight saying there would be widespread changes for this weeks game. Who else is there?

    The briefest summary of round 3 from me....

    Good post Elfster and I agree with most of your points. Only additional observation is that super rugby comp's aren't won in March (otherwise the tahs would have won one already when we won our first 4 games a few years ago). Plenty of teams have started strong and faded away during the...

    Byrnes gets 10 Weeks

    The TC incident has been mis-understood by most and I was previously sworn to secrecy but its important the truth be aired given subsequent confusion on this matter. During what TC thought was the last tackle of the game, he noticed that a funnel web spider had lodged itself on the back of...

    Byrnes gets 10 Weeks

    After watching the latest video per the fox link above, I can see why he was found guilty. Its hard to argue there is any valid reason for his hand being near Carter's face at that time. 10 weeks seems fair to me.

    Waratahs v Highlanders - Super Rugby round 3

    But the tahs record in Dunedin has been good in super rugby, possibly our best in NZ. If Berrick and Cutch are back then I think we are a reasonable chance. I do expect Highlanders to win as I think our bench isn't strong enough to get us over the line in the last 20. I think it will be the...

    The Tom Carter incident

    Thats probably the sanest post in this whole thread Daz.

    Waratahs 2012

    I would start Barnes at 10 if he is fit. If MoFo is struggling at 15, then he and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) can always just swap around mid game.

    Byrnes gets 10 Weeks

    Fox had some footage of it during the game. Byrnes hand clearly crossed Carter's face but I didn't think Byrnes was looking and I thought it was a stretch to say that he definitely attempted an eye gouge.
