I do understand that my rugby vision is slightly scewif today with the pain and humiliation of last night...but.... I have to say that I will not be the least bit surprised to see Wales walk all over us come Friday. Why? I simply do not think that DEANS will learn anything from last night. And...

WHAT! Rubbish. Every player who runs on should be 150% confident, that is why they get to wear the jersy. But confidence is Nothing if you play like shite. He is the consummate non performer at international test rugby, and a testament to the Deans Experiment. I just wonder how Gitts felt...

I have questioned Deans ability and tactics every single match and when I heard the news in 2007 Deans had the gig, well, it ruined my Christmas. The tallent he has either sacked benched or ignored, the EXPERIENCED players he has disrespected, in the " Deans Experiment" has been proved wrong in...

But Not always dangerous though. Yes, while rugby people may know this, to the uninitiated, THAT tackle did not look dangerous. And it wasn't.

Getting pumped up now... 15 degrees celcius in Auckland, Cloudy. 2 hours to go, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfJDfU-NW8U&feature=youtu.be

I hope the NZ Chemists guild pre planned. Will there really be enough anti-depressant medication to go round if NZ lose?

FFS pure emotion speaking here. Hasn't SW been punished enough! Haven't WALES been punished enough already!

I have not. It is just a question.

Revised as - The sky is blue the ground is dry AUS 19 v NZL 12

With France beating Wales the way they did last night, this game today has become the final IMHO. May this match show the world what Rugby Union really is. And may the best team, not the ref, win. CARN the Wallabies.

IF we lose, and with the weather conditions I NOW am totally confident that we won't, but should that happen then the playoff will be a cracker. Please tell me SW has not been also cited? Gee playing THIS Wales in Cardiff after the form I have seen.... with the home ground advantage, with them...

OMG. Can this story be true? A bookie doing THAT. Could it be a hoax? If it is true, good on him, If you do bet, and I do not, everyone please place your bets with this man.

please explain.... that one has slipped past me to the keeper

Maybe I am just living in the past then. Any suggestions?

Why the hell not? What ever happend to good long phase Rugby. I wouldn't care if there where 100 rucks in a row so long as our men guard their ball.

It stated being discussed about a month before this world cup started. If you dig about you will find some articles about it. The IRB wants fast games that are held up for nothing. Also why injuried players are lying about the pitch bleeding while the game goes on.

Understand what you are saying that a game that flows well is one in an ideal world where it all works. But you do understand what I am saying don't you? We can't let our game be ruined by rules to keep the mums happy and tv ratings high.

Not intending to be argumentitive, but, this comes up a lot and I have to add my 2cents worth. I want to watch RUGBY UNION. I don't care if it "flows" or not. Not ALL Rugby is played by the backs. I have a big appetite for forward play. It has never been written in the Laws of Rugby that it...

Clearly stated in one sentence. I have also not been too keen on this 2011 IRB pressure on the ref to award penalty at the scrum rather than a reset. I think we have been seeing refs giving penalties when they are not 100% of what has gone on in the scrum, rather than go for a reset.

an impartial person who did not care who won was watching with us, he said when Captain was Redcarded. "You have got to be kidding. What has this game come to. I thought this was a contact sport. This is not the sort of game I want to watch. How can you get sent off for tackling a man." I...
