    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    Sorry, whatty, I can't agree with you. The broadasters don't determine when the matches are to be played, they just decide whether or not to broadcast them live! The key word in my post was "scheduling".

    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    At least tonight isn't a total waste of time, as I watch the Cowboys (with my favourite NRL player, Matt Bowen), flog the Broncos. I'd prefer to be getting ready to watch the Wallabies though. To those of you with pay TV, or at your "local", enjoy the match.

    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    I want to take this opportunity to congratulate SAANZAR, ASANZAR or SANZAAR, (or whatever the clowns that are running The Rugby Championship now call themselves)! As a group they are meant to be promoting Rugby in this country, however, scheduling an Aust v SA test so that there will be no live...

    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    If it's a close game, with only minutes to go, Mike Harris will kick a penalty from the sidline to give us the lead and a "get out of gaol" victory!

    I guessed as much, and suspect that our "home-ground advantage" will be diluted somewhat, or possibly eliminated!

    TBH, with so many Bok fans living in WA, what would you expect the composition of the crowd could be?

    Self-control probably, ACT C.

    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    Braveheart 81, I get your drift, and perhaps I was a bit tough on you, (nothing personal), but really, I am sick of hearing about the All Blacks! Their superior attitude, the fact that we have to endure two versions of their National Anthem, then sit through a "Traditional Maori War Chant" (that...

    For Christ's sake Braveheart81, this thread is about the Wobs v's the Boks, you are living in the past, get over it, say something that's relevant, or go elsewhere!!

    Youbetcha Hugh! BTW, what's our record against the "dreaded Boks" in the last (say) 5 years?

    It goes without saying, (but I'll say it anyway), I'm pleased to see Harris on the bench!

    The ranting at Deans/ARU/O'Neill/Players thread

    I've made comments previously as to Robbie's (peceived) difficulty coaching a team to play against AB players that are like sons to him, so I now pose these questions to those of you who have greater abilities than me to analyse Robbie's coaching methods/results: 1. Does he coach the players...

    Rumour: Deans could be gone

    Moderators: please tell Waylon "He's dreamin"!!

    DamO, I can't disagree with anything you've said here!

    Me too Teach, I'm just saddened to think that Robbie hasn't been more successfull, as he had few peers at Super Rugby level! I doubt that we will beat either the Boks or Los Pumas (I'll be at that match), so another bleak off-season ahead for us! ABs are worthy #1 IMHO!

    So, teach, how the hell did we end up with him?! The ARU must have been really desperate!

    2012 Rugby Championship Game 2 New Zealand vs Australia - 25 August

    I take your point DamO, but what you are saying is that Robbie is a "typical national Kiwi rugby coach". So how come he was knocked back twice when he offered himself as ABs coach?! Seriously, I know you are taking the Michael (aka piss) out of me, but, as I said over 12 months ago, it must be...

    2012 Rugby Championship Game 2 New Zealand vs Australia - 25 August

    I think, for me, the most "defining" part of Saturday's match was when Dagg scored his try, and the cameras panned to the Australian coaching box. Assistant-coach, Tony McGahan showed 'normal' emmotions, and probably said something like "bugger" as he leant back in his chair. In contrast, Robbie...
