What I wouldn't pay for a broadcasted intra-squad scrimmage this weekened

I think the problem is that it was a little over-medicated ;)

Similar pattern at Bath and Saracens when he was in Europe from what I've seen. I'm actually pretty keen to do a deeper dig between now and the French tests to get a better grip on what's going on. Seems Woody is a great maid of honor but an ugly bride. You've made me feel a bit less crazy...

Burgess played a great game for a back rower.

For mine the bottom line is if you're going to put your hands on another players' face like that you are the one opening yourself up to claims of eye-gouging. You just don't do it, "heat of the moment" or not. It was dumb and he deserved whatever interpretation came his way after it.

Deysel intentional stomp on the face/neck of Crusaders' back rower. It was pretty awful and he will be lucky (in my opinion) to see a rugby pitch this side of 2015.

McCaw still has it. I don't necessarily think that was the right call but some seriously impressive strength from Ruchie there.

It's a farce if he's banned for any less than 15-20 weeks.

ENJOY THE VACATION JEAN

Genia will score a try and Reds will win by 8.

I surely can't be the only one that sees the potential disaster that would be Mogg marking up 1-on-1 against just about any Saffa or NZ test player, am I? Maybe in the last 20 but if anyone ever saw that lineup or even thought it might happen they would just tell their pack to go gang busters...

He's got the face of a 35 year old porn star from the 80s so I can't really blame you. Still kind of fucking with my head that we could have been in the same year at school together. For all the shit I've given him about ball security and decision making he's barely half a year older than...

Wow, I never realized how young Davies is. I was going to write a post about how maybe he's giving JJ more chances to develop knowing Rod won't be around forever/is of questionable quality but now I've realized Rod is only 24. Oh boy. :confused:

He started playing for Saracens and worked his way up through the academy to the starting side in 2008, he debuted for the Eagles in '08 as well. His stint in the NFL only lasted about a year and he's been back in rugby for nearly a year now. Hardly an NFL player :p

Yeah I'm feeling pretty much the same way because of his age. If he was closer to 25-26 I'd be all about bringing him over because he's a good player (if not spectacular) and would give us a 4th lock that isn't over 30 and isn't a 5/6 hybrid but would be a specialist lock instead. Fortunately...

Hasn't EOD been occupying the marquee spot in recent years? Hayden would probably be an upgrade from EOD the way he has played this season. Hayden gets along alright and wouldn't be a bad signing but that sentiment is strongly boosted by our pretty severe lack of locks behind Kev/Simmons, or...

Yeah we've got so many budding Super Rugby-ready locks and out halves knocking on the door that the only explanation for continuing to play Cooper and Horwill must be the influence of McKenzie.. Had to stop reading there What a fuckin' load of garbage

@Redshappy After looking more of a rabble than a rugby team the past few weeks I dread this press release. Got to sit down and watch the match again yesterday, this time at a decent hour. There seems to be at least a few players in the squad playing with a "well, the season's already over"...

And Ant has been pretty crap at 12 so far this year to top it off.

How accurate is the Courier Mail, usually?
