Far out, you've clearly missed the point. Did you even read past "injured". I was just bloody saying how I'd feel if Mealamu, Romano, Slade were all of a sudden in the starting lineup. Sarcasm is hopeless on the internet.

Can't wait for a few injuries to see Mealamu starting at hooker, Romano in the locks, Barrett or Slade at fullback. Geez this team all of a sudden looks a bit light on paper. SBW getting a free plane trip. No Piuatau. TKB gets a free plane trip.. Bit fucking rich not taking Sopoaga. Was...

Wow, a bit of a lean streak and maybe lack of match fitness and all of a sudden Savea is "milk tanker". I pity the fool. Wanna swap wingers? Hmmm? lol Can't wait to see how this turns out..

Yes, of course, but they, are all.. they are all Australians.

Wayne mother fucking Barnes. He looked absolutely ecstatic watching Folau run goal bound. I cracked up seeing such enjoyment from a ref. Hmm, honestly, Nonu and Smith will be harder to replace. Especially Nonu. COMPLETELY different back line from last week with a proper 12 playing. We have...

Sheesh. Fair bit of stone throwing these last couple of pages. Think people have run out of rugby stuff to say. Only 20 hours to go.

Pooper Scooper (Speight and Cooper combine for consolation try) ^^He's just a pantomime villain at this stage.

Perhaps a bit of truth to this. NZ under Wayne Barnes. 4 losses from 8. AUS " 12/13 wins from 12/13, there abouts. SURELY, the comments from the books of a certain RM and GH are not forgotten easily. haha (nervous laugh) Looking forward to tomorrow's game. It's quite exciting because I...

Na, Hansen will save it for half time. Evidently it works out better that way.

Agree completely on all fronts. Cane has been the better player than McCaw for a while now. If it were a straight swap it would be easy but replacing the captain makes things difficult. Just see what SA are doing with De Villiers. The 10 position looked amazing 6 months ago. Cruden, Carter...

You're deluded if you thought Barnes favoured NZ at the rucks.

Replacing??? Read (IRB player of the year 2013) Kaino (Should have been IRB player of the year 2011) Albeit, I think neither of their spots are actually safe. I just like to live past glories. Dunno it's tricky. I think if this wasn't a world cup year, the team would be very different...

You guys only lost a couple of lineouts. Here's what matters though, Australia: Rucks won: 104 from 105 (99%) Posession: 56% Territory: 58% AB's often lose both of those, not often the rucks though. Pooper (when the ref will allow them) are going to destroy teams with turnovers. The AB's...

2013 All Blacks? If only..

A little bit agreed. Most of the incumbents certainly did not light up the Super Rugby season. It was funny watching Woodcock, come near a ruck, had a chance to get on the ball but by the time he bent down the Aussie 5 metres away was there. Shh. I've been saying for a while now Cane should...

I'm gonna cop it at work tomorrow. Thank god for the ashes. Anyone else absolutely hate the spider cam?

Yeah barnes is card happy. I just thought he cherry picked the breakdowns. Make no mistake, i thought barnes was poor but Australia definitely earned their win. Shit, forgot to mention nehe in my whinge post. Very good debut, shame about the result. Also, SBW was a better player before he left...

I agree. And it COMPLETELY favoured the wallabies. This will be the last i mention of it but the way barnes reffed the breakdown definitely favoured the wallabies. He let heaps of stuff go but picked out nz penalties that had absolutely no impact on the rucks. Smith/kaino/laulaula all awful...

Couple of wrong calls in a row. Missed tackles have been absolutely terrible from the abs.

HOW IS THAT A PENALTY? Kaino rolled away. Not his fault australia didn't secure the back of the ruck? Bollocks penalty. Skelton just played the ball on the ground.
