I watched last night's game and noticed a couple of sad things. I lacked emotional engagement in supporting the Wallabies and had zero rushes of adrenaline during the game. It's perhaps how the team would may felt today and they played. Come on fella's, give us a reason to get passionate and...

10 years of it and that is your best example Macca? You finished outside the top 4 again, and closed another season out being belted in the forwards in your season ender. Other clubs have recruited/developed and built depth in their tight forwards but Randwick don't seem to give it the attention...

For around 10 years now Randwick have been dished up in the forwards at the pointy end of the season. Forget wingers and centres or even backrowers, they need 2 good sets of tight five forwards to sustainably compete at 1st grade level when it matters.

The referee's judgment needs to come into it, just like it does evertime he makes a decision on field. In the referee's opinion would a try have been most probably scored if the defending player hadn't acted unlawfully (come in from an offside position)? Answer Yes, so penalty try for mine. Also...

That would make him a cunning Rat, yes?

Ever think it may come down to coaching too? Randwick were used as a benchmark earlier in this thread. Their coaching staff have consistently gone on to coach successfully at much higher levels over many years. Think Dwyer, Eddie Jones, Cheika, McKenzie, Ella, Knox, Jim McKay. Alan Gaffney, Ian...

I once heard Spiro welcomed to the stage at a rugby function by an MC with the following introduction; "Although Spiro is a Kiwi, we should not forget his Greek heritage, as it was the Greeks who brought us sex. Still we must remember that it was the Italians some time later who introduced women."

Drive-by-shootings are more the trend.

Enough of this 'Herd' mentality, enough.

WTF happened? A. You live in Wellington, got smashed celebrating, woke up in hospital and was discharged yesterday, and finally caught a bus home OR B. You live in OZ and bought a cheap ticket on Tiger Airways.

Fair call. I was really focusing on the personal comments about Carter's family and swearing around women and children being unacceptable.

Nup, now we're justifying unacceptable behaviour. If it's not Tom Carter, the idiots will find someone else regardless.

Get a ticket to Brisbane and get a jumper on Gel, we need you.

For us to be a chance of beating the All Blacks my guess is that 8 out of 10 variables need to go in our favour. The variables could include the bounce of the ball, injuries, weather, missed tackles, turnovers, field position dominance, refereeing decisions and others. When the Wallabies lose...

All good banter but here's what's unacceptable for mine in a crowd; Making personal comments about a player's family and/or partner. Swearing or acting in an offensive or intimidating manner around women and children. Most clubs have fans who occasionally go over the top. It's terrific when a...

Memo to all captains. Speak to the ref when your team gets a penalty and take the ball with you; - You will have his undivided attention as nothing can else happen in the game if you're holding the ball talking to him. - You will not initially be perceived as negative or a whinger because you...

Is Steve Hansen the Kiwi's version of David Campese? Campo - "I've never been one to predict the future and I never will" Hansen -" Ewen can do what he wants, I guess, but I could sit here and pick holes about how often they took us out, held on to us after the ball was played and obstructed us...
