Hooray! I am pretty sure we are undefeated under Barnes. He is the anti-Kaplan.

Way to rub in the fact that WA are left out of the party. ;)

It makes you wonder what would have happened if he didn't award and penalty and gave a scrum instead? Slipper seemed to stabilise our scrum. Would we have won a scrum penalty? Would we have been penalised? Would we have gotten the ball out and either scored a try or won a penalty through...

Maybe the Scots can have the yellow overturned on appeal...

So the form of Argentina against Ireland makes it look like they would be favourites against either Australia or Scotland. If both Argentina and New Zealand made the final it would be the third consecutive year in which two teams from the same pool made the final.

Yeah we are struggling a bit. But you can't say 2015 was a good year for the SA franchises and a shit load of guys are heading overseas for the 2016 season.

Looked like one of the Scottish players was still bound to the splintering section when it splintered (i.e. same maul).

Very ominous. You'd have to think that the travel schedule would weary them. But maybe if they are too good it makes a good case for 2 Argentinean teams. Especially since there was some uncertainty earlier about whether South Africa could sustain 6 competitive teams.

I would be more positive if it was humping a kiwi.

You've obviously never met Shiggins.

Tough to see how this will go. France were bad, but how much of it was them being bad and how much was it NZ being great. South Africa didn't seem great, but they are battle-hardened and on an upward trend.

Hair modelling for Pantene.

We'll be in trouble if two go down. Otherwise, Foley has played plenty of fullback and could comfortably push Kurtley to the wing (where he played well against England), which would free up AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to play 13 (where he has played well in the past). Cheika will have a plan.

WAST: Another great reason to live in WA.

Me too, Lindommer, me too. Its tough for Super Rugby squads. We need effectively 20 second rowers across the 5 franchises. Plus guys on the periphery because locks often pick up injuries. I guess thats one of the great things about the NRC. Speeding up the development of guys like Corey Thomas...

I wonder how often those hail mary probabilities pay off? The Spirit need the Eagles to lose all remaining games and the Rising to lose with no BPs and to pick up 5 points v the Rams. I think if the Rising and Spirit are tied, head v head applies first. It's a shame it has come to this. I am...

Phil Kearns.

Im a bit concerned about a possible To'omua v Roberts match up. To'omua throws himself into tackles and has a history of head knocks. If he did start and the worst happened, who would replace him?
