Hopefully they fly Jonathan Kaplan over especially for you.

The only way to decide this is with a game of FIFA. Winner wears the Wallabies #10.

Full credit to Foley and the players. They had a killer game plan and executed it perfectly. Great signs for next season. How funny was that forward pass at the end? Never seen that happen in my life. Just goes to show they are only human. And on a side note IMO that borders a penalty for an...

Exactly.

The Western Force have a system in place where the players decide the standards for the playing group. So JOC (James O'Connor) will set out his own behavior standards/goals that align with the rest of the group, and if at any time the playing group agrees he has breached their rules then he will be asked to...

Yes, they can. As a touch judge I keep my flag down until the ball does touch something beyond the touch line for this reason!

If the ball crosses the plane of touch. It becomes dead when it touches something beyond the plane of touch. (this can be anything from; the ground, a player standing beyond the line, or a tree) If Beale was inside the field when he hit the ball. Then the ball has not touched something beyond...

As an assistant referee it is your job to closely watch the scrums. At that level they give frequent information to the referee and will discuss scrums at half time. Analyzing scrums on TV pictures is a long process and wouldn't be something that couldn't be done by the TMO on the night. The...

If you go down to your local club there is no crisis. The beautiful scrurms still exist and are the referees have little work to do. Scrums are no more problematic than any other aspect of the game. It seems as though the issue is that the better players get at scrumming, the more they try to...

If Both centres get injured then JOC (James O'Connor) and Tomane will play there. Then you have Phipps on the wing but hopefully this will occur later in the game (if at all). It's definitely a risk for Robbie to take, but to beat the Lions I'm sure you need to take risks.

Deans got us into a world cup final against NZ at home and lost. And he's won a tri nations as well. They are my highlights anyway. I'm sure it's tempting to give him an extension because who knows, maybe he is actually keeping us in the world's top 3? Our player talent pool really isn't that...

Gatland kind of explains himself here, no specific details at all though. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/video/2013/jul/03/lions-warren-gatland-brian-o-driscoll-video

That didn't take long.....

#BepolitetoPoite On a side not BOD is the top trend on twitter.

Now that this is over let's just hope people apply the same faith they have in this IRB appointed official to deal with an incident, as they do in the referee's on Saturday.

Next time someone goes to the judiciary for a similar act of foul play they can say "well in Horwill vs the IRB, you guys ruled him not guilty due to lack of evidence for intent, hence the act can't be ruled reckless and doesn't warrant a suspension". The IRB has lots of people to answer to...

Well I happen to believe that decisions in all courts of law should have the ability to be reviewed and overturned. After all those making the decisions are only human and can make errors from time to time. That may lead me down some slippery slope to some insane land of dangerousness, but...

The reason we have a commission to review these incidents is because the national/state magistrate grants us the power to deal with them internally, saving the courts having to deal with tons of football fights every week. I'm not an expert but I'm guessing we need to deal with the process...
