I think Tip lost all credibility when Elsom's name was mentioned.Give me Hooper any time over him.

He did say it was someone in a "position of authority" in the team.Surely this is Mowen?If you can believe Crowden,of course.

I think the AB's will have last years match very much on their minds and a hiding for the poms is most likely.i doubt if they will use last years excuse of being disinterested after a long season.

MR,I am also a bit strange when it comes to England sporting teams.Will definitely be supporting AB's(I actually lived in NZ for 4 years,so support them unless playing Oz),hate their cricket team with a passion but support their football team.Not sure why I support their football team as they...

Mate,I can't believe you are going on about the reffing after watching one of the best games of rugby seen for ages.As an unbiased Aussie watching,I would take Owens over any other ref I have seen this year.

Sully,maybe you can elaborate.What was the one average game at flyhalf? I am certainly not advocating he should be there,but up until his injury last season,wasn't everyone touting him as the next Wallaby flyhalf?

I would say Ben's manager is playing the system and,you are right,nothing wrong with that.Judging by comments in press today,he will be staying anyway.

HJ,what about when flankers were breakaways?

Daz,I agree with you that he can choose to spend his money any way he wants to,but don't carry on like a dickhead about seating arrangements on a budget airline.

I agree that we should wait and hear full story before condemning JOC (James O'Connor),but not sure about some of your "excuses".I've traveled a lot on Asian airlines and never found any stewards/stewardesses who could not speak good English and I am sure their ground crew in Australia would be the same.It's a...

While you're down there...

A bit late contributing to the thread, but I would just like to say that was the most disappointed I have been with the team this year,even more than with the 3rd Lions test.Mainly because they promised so much before the game then delivered fuck all.Switched the TV off 10 minutes from end,so...

Dan,I reside in Thailand and watched coverage with NZ commentators,who also questioned why he did not refer it to TMO.There was no mention of his reasons for not doing so.There were quite a few replays shown afterwards as well.

You are spot on,Lee.Especially about catching and passing.After the Bled I watched the Currie Cup match between bulls and Lions and was amazed at the standard of play,and in particular the quick and accurate passing.This was 2 teams playing with hardly any players I recognised from S15,but it...

Agree.Another example of his stupidity saying England are greater rivals when they have only beaten AB's once in last 10 years.Looks like the Kiwis have got same class of journalists as us.

I still can't work out what it is with half backs.A.Smith was one of the best for the Blacks but scored 7 points??Luckily I had B.Smith as well!

Sorry,it is only Tuesday,I must be a bit slow on the uptake.You are right,back 3 should be 11,14 and 15.Maybe I was pinning all the blame on the forwards,but if Rassie meant that back 3 then I must agree!

Point taken.It's just that normally when you refer to the "back" it is usually 6,7 and 8.If he was referring to 4,5 and 8,then I thought Simmons had a reasonable game too.

2 of the 3 were ineffective.Rassie,you must have watched a different game if you thought Hooper played poorly.

Dickhead,hit post reply before replying!Anyway,Rassie,I hardly think SA dominated even though Bulls won 3 times.They had a fairly good team at the time rather than winning because of less travel.Less travel did not help in the preceding 11 years when there were even fewer teams. I am also...
