    Sydney Tah Williams

    I just clicked on that link that got automatically created and got my answer. Thank you Ruggapedia! :D

    Sydney Tah Williams

    #1 Tah - that article reminds me to ask if Rory Sidey got any game time this year? I missed a couple of games but I didn't notice him.

    Deans' warning to Wallabies

    I'm going to take up this point semi-seriously. The Australian speechwriter Don Watson has written a couple of books about weasel words in politics. It's language that's deliberately obfuscating (e.g., collatoral damage, extraordinary rendition) in order to avoid responsibility. What happens to...

    Rocky road ahead for Rocky...........

    6s and 8s can take different roles. You can play this combination differently. Some teams like a 6/lock which means the 8 can be more nuggetty / solid. Some teams will look for a tall 8 which means you can play a destroyer (eg Collins) at 6. I think you look at the personnel you have a try to...

    Deans' warning to Wallabies

    Just trying to figure out what Robbie is saying. Please let me know if I've got something wrong. http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-sport/deans-warning-to-wallabies-20110812-1ipa2.html They have a lot of test caps. They will try to play well because it's not long until the Rugby...

    The Scariest War Dances - Pre Match Rituals

    I reckon it's done well half of the time and badly half of the time. The Munster example, above, was pure awesomeness. The Wales example was awful. The NZRU are excessively precious about their product and they can get fucked. For me (like you care, but anyway), the haka is now too long and...

    Rocky road ahead for Rocky...........

    I don't clearly disagree - Tiptop has disappointed most of us who thought he looked like the perfect lock/6. It's just that Elsom, Palu, McCalman are not performing for various reasons, and we might have to go back to some options like Mumm, Dennis, and Hodgson that have proved only moderately...

    Rocky road ahead for Rocky...........

    OK, I'm a Tah supporter, but Dennis, Mumm and Mowen are all guys worth looking at. Like a lot of people, I think Higginbatty might be a flat track bully. But of course, he deserves his shot, let's see what he can do. But really, we are in the shit without a fit Palu. Totally in the shit.

    Sydney Tah Williams

    Well, it's probably bullshit, but the guy did live in Sydney for quite a few years. It's not impossible. And it goes without saying that he would be a fantastic acquisition by the Tahs.

    Digby Ioane

    Only a complete dickhead would miss out on the chance to play the B&I Lions. What do they teach kids these days?

    Rocky road ahead for Rocky...........

    Rocky getting appointed was a 'meh' moment for most people here. Not everyone's choice, but not a huge problem. My problem at the time was that he was and continues to be crocked. But it's the trademark Deans stubborness that is now the issue. And as much as people will roll their eyes at...

    Rocky road ahead for Rocky...........

    Wha!?!? Deans picked Rocky as captain from overseas AND when he was crocked. It was FAR from obvious at the time.

    It's the coach

    I was totally with you until ... I really don't see that the above list of tactics was made out of necessity. I would have dropped QC (Quade Cooper) last year because of his tackling. I would hope that getting dropped would have sent a message and he would have got better. But we sent the message - we'll...

    I don't agree, Gnostic. Not that it's important - just make believe, but still.

    It's the coach

    Reaaally??!?? Were you around in 2003 Groucho? I reckon Richie would be a 6 or 8 at the very least. Carter would be playing fullback. Mils wouldn't be in the squad.

    It's the coach

    Deans and Henry have taken polar opposite approaches with selections over the last 4 years. Youth vs experience. I'm an experience man myself and it's half the reason I've got the shits with the whole thing.
