I think only Cheik knows what was behind his thinking last week. It was something completely different to how we have seen him use the bench through the TRC & pool matches and can appreciate why you are scratching your head. It will be interesting to see how he uses the bench this week but for...

In hindsight we may well have been better with QC (Quade Cooper) out there from the beginning last weekend as he has some 50+ caps of experience playing behind "beaten pack/scrums." .........and yes, I am joking before anyone cracks the shits.

Maitland's yellow card is a great example of another "soft yellow" compared to Genia's yellow against Wales. Genia's was a perfect example of cynical play and was a deserved yellow in anyone's book. I actually thing Genia made the right call as he saved a certain try and the team was able to...

Agree with all of you comments there BH, but this does apply to most of the posts concerning QC (Quade Cooper) also. It seems as though it is impossible to be critical of Foley or Cooper in any way without everyone taking there respective corners and going hard at it.

Seriously Blue?.....we get the fact that you think the OP's idea might be ridiculous but suggesting that he "take his kind to park" for F-sake? Accept the fact that some on the boards may have a different opinion about a particular player and show a little bloody respect. Insinuating someone is...

3.Beale 2.Fardy 1.Giteau

Replayed the scrum that Sio was injured a handful of times to see if I could see what happened. It looks like Moore has rolled back over him during the collapse while Sio was still bound. It essentially has reefed his shoulder / arm back behind him and I suspect that it is some serious shoulder...

What irritates me is all of of the headlines coming out of the match suggesting the Scots were robbed. It was a bloody tight match that could have gone either way in the end. Scotland were ahead by 1 point with 2 minutes to go and couldn't secure their own lineout ball on their 5m line.......9...

I think Folau not being there for this match messed a whole lot of shit up for us. We saw a lot more of Beale at first receiver, along with Gits, and I think it messed up our attacking patterns a little. The three "playmakers" were swapping around a good deal but more often than not they were...

Mate!.....I wasn't pinning shit on Foley. Go back and read my f**n post that BH responded to asking for specific examples of Foley's errors. I had no interest in nit-picking Foley to pieces. My earlier post was expressing my thoughts on his poor positional play in general. BH picked up on a...

WTF Pfitzy??......he dropped the pill cold.....it was a clanger. Scotland won a penalty from the ensuing scrum. 3 points to Scotland on the back of a basic error.

I respect your opinion BH and have no interest in debating whether or not the errors meet the definition of clanger or not. Call them poor options, simple errors, whatever you wish. He made far too many of them at critical moments in the game. It was a very poor performance nonetheless and had...

I recall Sio being pinged for collapsing when it was the Scottish prop that slipped his bind too.

Sure things BH.....times below are approximate. 4' - blew a try by throwing a 50/50 pass to Mitchell 1m from the line 16' - Completely missed a high ball - (contested) 18' - Dropped a high ball that was uncontested (knock-on), penalty to Scotland from scrum - 3 points 22' - Beale offload to...

Just watched the match again making some notes of some critical errors. In Foley's case, he made a total of 7 clangers aside from the very average place kicking. What really struck me about his game this weekend was his positioning in defense. A lot of the time he is defending at fullback or on...

Just browsing the fox rugby hq news and saw their player ratings......not sure I was watching the same game as whoever put that piece of crap together as they gave Foley an 8/10. Apparently "Iceman" is our bloody savior. As much as I don't want to start a shit fight I thought Foley had a...

Agree with you on that one BH.........all that hard ass training may be catching up with them......did we peak too early? It sure has been a fairly obvious downhill slide since the England match. All the other semi-finalists look to hitting their straps just at the right time.

Your day will be a lot better if you don't bother........just have your corn flakes and go for a walk.......trust me on this.

Let's just hope that today we just managed to get our shit game out of the way and that the Argies' played their ace game. The only bright side I can see is that all the boys had a little taste of defeat in their mouths for the last few minutes.......surely that will provide a bit of...

i would love to know what Cheik just said to QC (Quade Cooper)...........
