It was actually pretty sad watching him lip-sync the Baywatch theme song

Yeah, saw the Hoff - LOL. On Friday we went to a Rushed Lunch where Christian Cullen, Frank Bunce, David Campese and Terry Wright were speaking. After the lunch, Bunce came and had beers with us for a few hours. Apparently they all went to The Hoffs show the night before and it was terrible LOL

Yeah - definitely lived up to the hype. The rugby is awesome, you meet some pretty cool people from all over the world and have amazing rugby conversations at stupid times in the morning and HK is a buzz. There's next to lines for food or alcohol and you buy whole jugs if you want. As one of the...

Well, the boyz didn't get the result we were looking for but you won't hear any complaints from any Kiwis who were there. TV really doesn't capture just much work these guys get thru. I was amazed at just exhausted the boyz looked and yet found the energy to keep getting up, getting across in...

Bit off topic but any GAGRs over here in HK? Im at my first tournament and loving it....

I think 2013 & 2014 highlighted what a massive hole Pocock leaves. There are some good 7's in Australia but none really come close to his calibre - which isn't a sleight on them. Hardly anyone in the world come close to him...

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) might have been but Giteau and Mitchell were pretty average. I think having them in the Wallabies added very little that couldn't have been done by guys already in Australia.

Eric Rush at the Jonah Memorial.. https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/im-gonna-tell-a-few-stories-about-the-big-fella-and-hope-he-doesnt-sit-up-eric-rushs-incredible-eulogy.html?autoPlay=4637004489001

I still have no idea why Gits and Mitchell were brought back for the RWC. Neither were that crucial to the Wallabies that they couldn't have been replaced by guys like To'omua. I wouldn't be surprised if that was a factor in his decision as well. And now some here are saying the selection...

Anyone who thinks that McCaw was slipping a little bit in terms of his on-field play just isn't watching the game. IMO, only Pocock could possibly rank higher in terms of best 7 in the world but only because he is so much better than everyone over the ball. But take a re-look at the break-down...

Here's the actual fuck. My point was that your 'rugby tactic' about doing a few pick-and-go's may not have been as effective a you think because the ABs are actually very good at defending against it and Kaino in particular is a beast at driving players back in the tackle - even in the...

Watch him play. It's not unusual for him smash the pick and go runners back or stop them dead in their tracks behind the gain line. Forwards or backs. I've missed the gentle dig too - my bad.

Then what was he getting at?

Maybe this is a better one for you then? Or this one? Please don't pretend that Kaino is not one of the biggest and hardest hitters in the game today.

Pick and go is a shit option when you 'pick', look up, see this guy, and 'go' backwards

Go and take a look at the ruck stats on the home page from the final. Hooper had the lowest number of involvements out of all the starting flankers apart from Kaino who played 20mins less than Hooper and made 1 less ruck than him. The pre-game analysis had him with just 0.5 turn-overs won per...

If Fardy can continue on his form from the semi and be that guy every time he pulls on a Wallaby jersey, I think the need to have 'Pooper' is gone. He was an absolute beast in that game. It wasn't just about making tackles, he was making crunching, driving, dominant tackles. He made turn-overs...

I think before one shows any kindness towards another human or performs an act of generosity or graciousness to someone else, the recipient should have to fill out a form which allows you to perform a complete background check including posting picture and basic details on social media and await...

The other thing to consider is that it seems Hansen deliberately had the ABs playing to specific game plans and forcing them to play certain ways and styles in preparation for what they might have had to face later in the year and in the tournament. How much of that held Carter back from...
