To say BdP was going for glory and not going for turn-over ball is simply false. If the play hadn't been stopped and he hadn't been shown the YC, the Boks would have had possession from Carter's fumble when he hit the ground. So what if it was shoulder-first?!? That's a great tackle!! I'm not...

Man, you guys go hot and cold on your players real fast! Leave Cummins - he's doing fine. Pick a captain and stay with him. If he's fit, Horwill is your captain.

Yeah, well what the rest of you guys forget is that we were at the end of aa pretty woeful refereeing performance in 2007. We didn't get an apology, we didn't get a re-match and we got booted from an event that only come round every 4 years for our worst ever result at a RWC. In fact, the one...

I think it's for frustrated english teachers.....

Did you understand what Shiggins was saying? Writing is a form of communication and communication is about the ability to transfer ideas, thoughts and expressions to another person. If you understood what Shiggins was trying to say, does it really matter if he used the wrong 'their/there'...

I don't support Nonu's shoulder charges but he only cleaned up one player in 3 games. Slipper didn't get 'cleaned up' from the shoulder charge a few weeks back. Poor call from Poite but refs make mistakes - so be it. Do you how many penalties/YCs Manu Samoan players have received that have...

Woohoooooo.....another game we won because of the ref.All those All Blacks ref trainings that Hansen and Co. have put the IRB thru are starting to truly pay off....

I don't know if they sacked anyone or if Henry, Smith and Hansen just swapped some responsibilities around from memory....

Well, you certainly can't just discard it and pretend it never happened....

I think it's worthwhile to closely examine the 'All Black Tactics' I mean.....all that crap they do.....like scoring tries and shit.....it's unbelievable... Hehehehehe

Just read this in the SMH: This is what I'm talking about re: physicality and mongrel. It's not a game of chess. It's a battle. It's a fight. It's a war first and foremost. Lose that part fo the game and everything else doesn't matter.

One thing I've found curious is that I haven't seen anyones remark on Bob Dwyer's comment that he's heard Genia doesn't take instruction well. I'm sure that - if it's true - that would come as no big surprise to anyone who's watched him play over the last few years. Let him steam away as much...

I wasn't able to go to the finals because of other commitments but from what I heard, it was pretty much Vikings vs everyone else in the comp eg. a lot of supporters from other clubs wore blue and were going against us. Sometimes emotions get the best of us. Ask Andrew Mehrtens :) Preety...

Do you think the Reds or the Wallaby forwards have been good until this year?

?!? Not sure how you connect the 2 but whatever works for you uso.....

The thing about the To'omua v Cooper arguement is this: We've seen what Cooper can do for the last 40(?)-odd Tests or so. There really sin't much unknown about what he brings to the table is there? To'omua we've seen for 2 games against the world No. 1. He was poor in his debut and average in...

Kinda in line with this and what Michael Lynagh was saying......

Congrats on the win in 3rd Grant Jones - the best team over the course of the year, you guys deserved it :)

When I first found this forum about 3 yrs ago, I said way back then that there is something lacking in the Australian rugby players mentality in regards to that hard, tough edge that we call mongrel. That intangible feel that you get around hard mutha-f**krs. I'm not trying to be demeaning or...

1. I reckon the laws sometimes disadvantage the attacking team. Sometimes it would probably be better for the tackler to just lie there and let the half-back pick it up but if he does that, he'll get pinged for not rolling. 2. There is no law which dictates in which direction the tackler must...
