    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    The comments sections of internet articles on any contentious subject are a revealing look into the human psyche. It's life, Jim, but not as we know it.

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    My criticism of the team, and it's not a criticism of the selection, but a comment about our cattle, is that's certainly the slowest Wallaby backline I've seen.

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    Posters here and everywhere on the Internet are always incensed when the team is picked. I call it Schrodinger's Idiot.

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    Seriously? He's been consistently one of the worlds best players since going to France.

    And his number?

    Sure - that's what I meant by "he hasn't delivered on his attacking promise". I wouldn't be picking him for the Wobs until he does. It won't take much. He only has to learn to use his size and speed better, i.e. start to smash people in addition to bending the line.

    White men can't jump, scrubs. ;-) But he can stand and deliver.

    Which aren't shared by everyone on here. The only real problem with Skelton is that he hasn't delivered on his attacking promise. If he had, he'd be my first-picked lock, despite all those other reasons.

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    Why not? He's big, fast-enough, hard-as-nails, has real impact and has recently developed soft hands and a good pass. All he needs now is intensive development.

    Reading Cheika literally is like sorting tealeaves alphabetically.

    Remember Burkey was the bloke who said fans weren't qualified to comment on the game.

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    I've read some tosh on this site before, but this takes the biscuit. No Cheika team has finished worse in a major championship than when he's been there. That includes the Magner League, Heineken Cup, Super Rugby and Rugby Championship. The Rugby World Cup in the one exception, where his team...

    I'll take 33-35 with equal numbers of steals against the England lineout any day, given that the number of steals defines the lineout differentiator.

    Something the ABs have never done, of course. They have special dispensation to clean out uninvolved players.

    Ah yes, the death-rider inverse-gloat with pike-out. Gold! ABs by < 10.

    Aug 6th 2016. Super Rugby Final. Canes vs Lions.

    Kafer, Kearns and Clark aren't morons, galumay. Take a breath, and use this non-Aussie affair to have a rest from bagging Australia.

    Congratulation Canes. Just reward for an outstanding season.

    It is a very bright light though.

    Semi-finals 2016 - Hurricanes v Chiefs & Lions v Highlanders

    The mighty Bush Pussies seem to have all the best players. It'll be interesting to see if that flows into the often closed shop of Springbok selection.
