Tackling technique aside, I thought Jonathan White was awful. A good ref for a Kiwi derby when it's anything goes, but not helping the Rebs much.

Welcome axe! The other guy who does heaps of core is the boxer Many Pacquiao. Loves the core. Seems to help him, too.

I've only seen a couple of Force games this season and Sharpey looked like he was in retirement mode. If you guys saw more than that, fair enough. Some joke selections in there. Deans still with the youth fetish. I know what you're saying baabaa, that they're only in the 35-40 squad, but...

But WJ, what if the only thing to talk about is how they fail to function as a team?

What some people might not know is the way that the various levels of the Currie Cup are associated with SupeRugby teams. And those associations have changed over time. I assume that the Kings are currently negotiating a set of Currie Cup teams to be its feeder teams? What I didn't realise is...

MT, what do Lions and Cheetahs have in common? The Quadrapeds? The Furries? The Carnivores?

Timmy Horan generally had a very direct 13 outside of him. And Snorky Mortlock was super-effective like this. If I had to choose, it would be the 13 who was most direct. On the other hand, Nonu has been very successful for the ABs at 12.

Not on the ABC right now, but maybe join this to previous brain thread? Look forward to hearing reactions.

I'm going to try to kill two birds here. TahJ says that there's no cultural problem. FatProp - in another therad - says that you shouldn't need a skills coach by the time you get to this level. I reckon both are wrong. The Crusaders are easily the best Super Rugby side ever, right? What do...

I reckon the supporters who know best what we're going through are the Hurricanes'. They have a side capable of winning Super Rugby every year and yet they generally come about 3rd to 8th, like the Tahs. It has to be cultural. And if the Canes get their shit together and win it this year I'll...

Maybe White can play 10? He seemed to stand there at times to kick the ball 60m. I have a simple rule for judging field kicks. If it finds grass, you've probably done well; if it's caught on the full, you'll probably lose on the exchange one way or another. That's a minimal rule to follow...

More to the point would be were most people accessing this from the ground or at the pub or from home? If most of us are watching TV, then use a PC application.

Tip 4 Go crazy! Geez, they shouldn't say it if they don't mean it.

I thought Betham ought to have played 15 so that AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) could play 13 and Kingston back to wing. That looks better to me.

I was expecting (1) a live call service from PlayUp (2) more from KB (Kurtley Beale). I guess he was relaxing. Can't we just have a ChatBox or something? Keep it in house?

Well, no point putting this off any longer. https://twitter.com/#!/scarfman

Twitter will now hound you to your death. They won't give up until they monetise you. I've got to be honest, I'm taking all this rather hard. I'm really happy living without a mobile phone or tv or facebook or tumblr or lolcats or whatever, but I do like to banter about the game. You know, I...

That's the spirit Bardon. You should come around to my place. We'll get someone to ring us up every 10 minutes with a score update and we'll yell amusing comments down the phone line. Young people today don't know how to have fun.

They ask you to choose facebook or twitter at some point in the process. You can imagine my problem.

I was thinking of just yelling at the television. But then I realised I don't have a television either. Anyway, my hamster is geting tired, I'd better power down the computer.
