Just got home from the game. Cooper started chasing the game - playing catch-up - after that miserable start to the second half. And the Crusaders who were merely solid to that point made them pay over and over. Reds don't trust each other or their systems. That means they are going to keep...

He's dead to me. He might be back to haunt me March 15, when the reds meet the sharks.

Leckie seemed more concerned about the reds defenders touching (pushing) the halfback after he passed the ball than any number of more meaningful infringements (from both sides). Brumbies didn't have much clarity about what they were trying to do until they settled into a pattern in the second...

Brett Harris is just another reason not to read The Australian. The combination of grudging praise when something worthwhile happens, sniping when nothing is happening, and generally insightless commentary rather than actual reporting is too excruciating to bother with.

Lilo is a much better Harris than Harris, but he (Lilo) seems to be off the pace. Maybe you're right and he just struggled in the vacuum so many Aus outside centres find themselves in or may be his ankle is knocking him around. I'd still rather see Lilo at 12 but then I'm not seeing how they...

Two questions for link - whether to start lilo and whether to have him kick against Wales.

some of us remember him well but to mention it defines our age so we don't I must admit I thought he kept smiling because that was the only way to stay positive in the face of so many defeats from the convicts I always wondered if punctuation was optional and I think the jury is in

Ta!

Hows this going? The vidiot box is now foxtel free

The Beauty of Laidlaw when he runs is that he runs with the ball in two hands… and throws basketball passes forward to Maitland.

That was a slap with a closed hand, if you want to be specific. Stupid of Simmons. Stupid of the referees to fall for the pathetic Scottish gamesmanship.

CFS is is unbelievably raw to get a start at 13 in a test at this point. However, he apparently likes going to bed early. That has to be a plus. I'd like to see it, and if you were going to give him a start it would have been against Italy or Scotland. If he makes a fist of it then you...

Yep, it's in the irish papers. Usual IRBJM (IRB Judicial Masturbation):

Heh, heh.

Had the same impression watching Scott Allens scrum sequence from Twickenham. The LHP (Slipper or Robinson) seems to be left exposed regularly when Hooper bails early. And even before that, it's the one area where Hooper doesn't play well above his weight. I have this frustrating feeling that...

You know Clancy has had a bad game when you go to vandalise his wikipedia entry and someone has beaten you to it.

I don't think they're showing it live. But I think you can watch on Monday. Its in the guide.

Check out Directv - probably to late to subscribe, but you might be able to find a bar. I was in Peru for the wallabies vs argies game and thought I was no chance. A bar across the road in Cusco run by an Australian had a handwritten sign up promoting the game.

Yeah, the toxic environment thing was at best dirty laundry not to be aired and rules him out for mine. Certainly rules him out as captain. I reckon Link wants to get the best out of Cooper because it offers so much to the team, and thinks that this is the best way to do it. Be supportive and...

And that alone is enough justification. Thank you Link.
