How many Fainga'a's did they send?

Ta, idle evening in front of the telly. Is it the future?

+1, no jet shoes this year. Just rapid and committed.

It kinds of sounds like we agree on the facts, then, but we reach different conclusions.

The Cheetah's scrum was no pushover, so I would rank that performance quite high. And Slipper won a couple of turnovers. At the breakdown.

G'arn, they're the posters you love to hate! Whats the point of hanging out with a bunch of yes men! Stormers smashed em. Reds will be softened up by the Lions and ready for the BBQ in a fortnight.

Its fresh, it's current and oozing credibility.

3. Beau Robinson. Big test in SA, distinction there might earn him dibbs on the role as backup for Pocock at RWC? 2. Will Genia. Building into great form again. 1. James Slipper. Guy gets better and better, work rate is amazing. Ioane, Davies, Cooper, Horwill, Simmons all had a good day out.

I don't think that bias is an issue, apart from the home game/crowd influence that you just can't avoid. A potential problem with the conference system is it is a step towards 3 domestic comps, with their own refs, with a championship at the end for the winners. The refs and teams find an...

Hope the Reds watch this, it should penetrate the haze of their globetrotter like success. Will be a different game in Capetown in a fortnight.

The force need to slip the refs a few more bucks before games, it's clear that they are not at market rates. Referees are finding all sorts of ways to fuck them up. I thought Cummins was gone before for that (ahem) high tackle, but no, anorexic gregan ref found another way.

Halfassed call of knock on against Mafi, try De Villers.

wtf.

Tough going for the force, the stormers pack are monstrous so far and the set pieces are tough going. JOC (James O'Connor)'s biggest advantage over Cooper is maybe not his defense, so much as his ability to hurt the opposition even as they are bashing the force. He is so good in traffic.
