Refereeing was truly, utterly atrocious which I think is a pity, because the Saders played us off the park and it detracts from a massive performance by them. On our side, the forwards lost their mojo the instant TPN left the field, until then we'd been fairly much manhandling them. From that...

Yes I want to. I want to badly. But unless I can take a sledgehammer to his tibia and fibula, the bastard would prove me wrong.

The form lines certainly do suggest that we ought to win. But like a lot of guys are saying, there are so many unknowns in this one. The one thing I do hope is that regardless of the result, the Saders are in it mentally and able to play at their usual brilliant best. For Christchurch, sure...

Bruce, I'd like to say it's my fresh-faced youth and naivety but that really hadn't occurred to me. However, thanks for adding your years of wisdom and cynicism to come up with a plausible, if depressing scenario. BJ I assume you refer to Elsom. Gut feel or rumour mill (or actual fact)? I...

Touche :) Moving on, I am feeling conflicted. Just two days ago in the herald I read this: My respect for Moore went through the roof. A senior player coming out and saying you know, I know, we all know who you are so pull in your head. Showing, dare I say it, leadership. Then today: And...

The strangled words of a man in grief for the club he loves? Mocking laughter dies as the truth dawns? The sound of Slim booking tickets on Hawaiian Airways to escape the ignominy? Or perhaps a systems design designation of Andy Friend's status?

I actually thought Saifoloi was pretty good in the Nowra trial at 10. Interestingly, I thought his problem was lack of top end pace (acceleration great, through holes, but got run down every time). Also not sure how 11's ball distribution would affect a man inside him? Agree that whilst it's ok...

By comparison and in relativity? In a word: yes.

Except, you know, the poisonous culture of back-stabbing, leaks and dissatisfaction...

That's the nominal norm. Even as a junior that was an awfully flexible condition and was only once enforced on me, and only once on any teammate I played with. It was pretty much unless you're taken off in an ambulance, she'll be right. Now imagine that attitude translated into a professional...

One thing at least, it is good to know that here at G&GR we still have some concept of journalistic standards. Also, if a speech to text application translates "you", one of the more common words in the English language, as "u" they have problems, and that ignores the misspelling.

Lol classic attempt to cash in on the PR machine, methinks.

Do you genuinely think he's THAT much better than Beale, Cooper and Barnes that he can justify a position solely on his kicking? In my mind, a kicking specialist needs to be minimum Wilkinson level. JOC (James O'Connor), for me, isn't even close to that. I'm not sure I'd necessarily place him above Beale and Barnes.

Hush your mouth Hornet!

Oh good lord. Not oh good lord Cippers was fined one match payment. Oh good lord, Stathi Paxinos. What about journalistic standards? Ferchrissakes!

I'm guessing you'd like to watch? Kaplan made a number of errors in both direction throughout the game, each of which could be deemed on its own to be 'game changing'. The try, for instance. You could just as easily blame Giteau's ever-wayward boot. He also allowed play to restart after the...

Uh, there were no referees or umpires involved there, only superpowers and/or notional democracy...TOTALLY different thing!

What's the damage like on beer? Do they do grub too?
