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

    Spot on I think. As far as I am aware, Genia, even though he was the tackler, never released the tackled player and played the ball while off his feet. As soon as a player goes off their feet, they are not able to participate in the play. I think the interpretation of the penalty is the cause...

    Irrespective of the result, I am really starting to enjoy GAGR's resident Kiwis. We have a healthy Kiwi and Saffa population here, if only we could fill that out with some (legitimate) Argies, we would be set!

    That makes me sad to hear that :(

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

    Well something drastic has to happen, we can't keep banging our heads against the wall over and over. And over. And over. I might feel differently in the morning, when I realise that this could be a kneejerk reaction to us being comprehensively beaten by the best team in the world. I doubt...

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

    I am absolutely disgusted. I saw absolutely NO passion for the gold jumper tonight. Kudos to the Blacks, they knew our weaknesses and they exploited them ruthlessly. Dagg punished in open field and kick return, the Black piggies flew into the rucks with precision, and Dan Carter punished with...

    2012 Currie Cup 1st Division

    Hey Paarl, Griquas vs Cheetahs would be a local derby for those teams wouldn't it?

    The Blacks came out after half time and totally changed their game. It was quite remarkable to see a team with the ability to change their whole gameplan on the fly.

    Are you here to troll, or are you actually going to contribute something meaningful for a change?

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

    I feel like I have wandered into the twilight zone. I thought we were talking about Saturdays game? Wallaby forwards need to really stand up. A phrase I have not heard for a long time is "apply the blowtorch". If there is any time that the phrase should be revived, it should be now. The...

    The TV Broadcasting of Australian Rugby

    As long as the stream is of the appropriate quality, I would have no hassles watching rugby on my computer. I do have a tv as my computer monitor though. :) Like Richo and Pedro said, movement away from FTA towards the internet is starting to happen. If the networks don't move with it, they...

    Reds 2013

    Enjoy your hat and keyring. :p Personally, I don't think the shirt is all that bad. The Reds have stuffed a lot of gear into that pack. I might not wear it, but there are plenty of people who will appreciate it.

    The TV Broadcasting of Australian Rugby

    Quite agree. The shambolic coverage of Australian rugby on FTA does nothing but damage the profile of the game currently.

    Reds 2013

    If I get any new Reds gear, it will be the polo. I was going to buy a new Reds jersey a few months ago, but I hated it when I tried it on. My missus told me to put it the fuck back on the shelf! In the meantime, I will continue searching for my old Reds jersey I lost in my last move. Looked...

    I was also thinking about the parallels between the Aussie cricket team of a few years ago when I read Codex's post. You said pretty much everything I was going to. I kept substituting the Windies predicament with the Wallabies though! Great post also Codex. Keep 'em coming!

    That was me that said that a few pages ago. It was very much tongue in cheek. He was a pest, just ask Chris Jack! We really need a hard edge though. Not the niggling, cheap shot crap, but genuine hard men.
