    RWC 2019 4th Place Losers Match NZ vs Wales

    Well done NZ. Selections made for a better balanced team. Wales - bit of a Curate’s Egg performance. A lot to be proud of along the way. A good game all in all. Thanks both. PS: Nice post-match sentiments by coaches and captains. Proper ruggers. The game we play in heaven.

    RWC 2019 4th Place Losers Match NZ vs Wales

    Why does the Welsh scrum-half pause before passing the ball from the ruck each time, allowing the defence to get set? Is this a tactical innovation? Sort of a rope-a-dope vibe.

    Dear Wales If you keep giving NZ the ball back via shitty kicks, they’ll score tries against you all day. Regards A casual observer

    RWC 2019 SF2: SA vs Wales

    Fair question. And my initial comment was partly one of pride/history. However, they were not (in the first 60), even looking to make some progress. The box kicking was pointless, barely chased and poorly directed. It wasn’t the box kicking of Aaron Smith, more like Wet weather footy in...

    RWC 2019 SF1: New Zealand v England

    Itoje was magnificent, no doubt. Clearly MoM I was referring to the style of play. I think we’re seeing the new way of doing things now that jackalling is being downplayed by the new Laws. Underhill (and Curry) were charging up and tackling front-on, giving themselves no chance of making...

    RWC 2019 SF2: SA vs Wales

    That’s a fucking disgrace by Gatland. A massive injustice to the fans of Welsh rugby How can you complain about the result when you play negative, pointless rugby for 60-odd minutes. To go down like that is an insult to Edwards, Davies etc

    Wallabies 2020

    Cheika has publicly and stridently set out his stall based on ‘loyalty’ and a dogmatic approach to a ‘style’ of play When you do that, you simply cannot complain when you get the pineapple if it doesn’t work. All this equivocating about fairness and not having the players is bollocks He gave...

    If you’re being scientific, sure But if you’re throwing darts, for early retirement, then I think my approach has merit
