No, but what does matter is the truth.

By the way, I know Blues have dibs on first NZ team coach boning in 2015, but Blackadder has to be looking shaky. He's done nothing with the Saders. Probably won't be boned, but maybe won't receive a new contract offer? Oh and Brodie Retallick is back. Kids still got it.

Tell us more Sully? Dan Carter becomes the second highest first class point scorer in NZ behind Grant Fox. Still 600 short of Fox though.

Name your source or get on yer bike. No one wants to hear secret squirrel shit.

I'm a big fan of the flexible contract. Whatever we can use to keep our best talent in the game without losing them North has to be entertained. It can be individually tailored for any player. If Cooper wants to box, give it to him. If Israel wants to get on his bike and knock doors for an off...

I know it's hard to see through black tinted glasses, but based on current form McCaw and Carter aren't in the AB's 23. Can certainly understand why Shag will pick McCaw and he will then grow another leg and play for the AB's as he always has. But that won't be on current form. It will be on...

Last time we played the Stormers it belted down rain all night and we sat out in it in our plastic condoms. We were directly in line with Habana's intercept try in about the 20th minute. He knocked it on as he placed the ball, but it wouldn't have made a difference. They were too good for us...

Could set your clock by Shiggins. I actually gave Hoffman MOTM in my review. I thought he was excellent.

In hindsight, last years results were an anomaly. Hodgson did the impossible and lead from the front. Dragging the team to wins they probably shouldn't/wouldn't expect to normally win. The sad truth is that we are about 5 quality players away from being a finals contention team. But I take...

But Hoopers ball running is going to be nullified somewhat due to the nature of RWC games. I'd also disagree that he is "pretty good" at the breakdown. I'd say barely adequate for an Australian starting 7. Though I shudder to think when we do make breaks who will be there to support the ball...

Giteau. He already told Moore he's the fucken captain, so that's all sorted then.

Congrats to the Blues, nice for them to get the win but quite lucky not to concede a penalty try when they collapsed that rolling maul that was pretty much a dead cert try. But that's rugby, sometimes things go your way.

And again. Marshall's having kittens.

People who say Pocock won't be running out in 7 for the Wallabies are basic.

All right, you've got us. It was Cheika who was the gunman on the grassy knoll. He apparently shot underarm just to rub salt in the wound too.

Yeah, you know if the Blues click they can beat anyone. It's more of a matter when than if for the Blues. Couldn't hurt to have some firepower waiting on the bench. Strange to name a 25 man bench unless they have some injury concerns.

Shows how well Carraro has played to keep AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) on the bench. He may be short of a gallop, but most years he would be straight back.

I've only had a small look at Bowden, but It don't see him potentially being better than West to unlock the Blues attack. Seems a little like shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Agree with this except the part about Harris not being a Super quality 10. He'd start in front of the two we have at the Force.
