Love it! http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/31085158

Interesting Orc line up. Looks like it's been picked with one eye on extending the rwc squad. My curve is on the up

Cool! Can watch it at a civilised hour

Ok I see

Keep reading in this thread that O'Connor will be in rwc side. Has the aru said it is willing to change contractual arrangements with players or is this just wishful thinking?

They looked exhausted at the end. Hope most can get a decent break. Those in the meat grinder of top14 unfortunately wont

I agree totally. Remember this time last year, some idiot journos were writing their obituary. I am in awe of how they've maintained their record this year

the comparison is the best I've heard and set me thinking. I never got the hang of the Deans era for Australia but now can see them as v similar. One thing for sure gatland's love for mike Philips and Rhys priestland has not helped. Half backs control games especially in last 10 mins and they...

Shame. V interesting tho. must've been hell to watch the Orc game in slo mo to compile!

Interesting. I think you are entirely correct to compare them. I do however see that gatland has a plan whereas I don't think australia ever got what Dean's was trying. It'll be interesting to see how we go against orcland and oireland now that we do have a halfback pair. Key is going to be...

Disagree with most of tordhah s comments except for his assessment that nz are out there on their own at #1 and the ones re Farrell and Ashton being hartley''s deranged brother

Hey forcefan did you collect comparative data for the orcs?

I ve watched the game God knows how many times now and conclude that Sean Edwards is a genius. South Africa continued to target dan biggar long after it was obvious that they were running into a brick wall. They went high and Wales took them. When they went wide the blitz got them. Wales knew...

I think it's great. Finally a wide open rwc

A couple less 3 pointers would have lost you all four. things are v v tight

Do you have the table of results for Wales vs South Africa? It's more one sided and a hundred years long and results a lot less close. It's also equally irrelevant after yesterday.

Well, yes i do actually x 2.

Shows how much the world can change in an instant. Which is my point. If Australia can knock off the all blacks just once next year The world will seem a different place. If you don't, and on the back of this tour you possibly lose to argies or saffers it's going to be difficult to keep up any...

You're not making me feel any less proud of the bois Knocking off #2 ranked team. And you can be sure that ch won't be losing sleep. Don't agree re: the yellow card. It was the third, maybe not the worst. It did put 1/2p out of the game. And the laws are clear. 1/2p himself has been on the...

Or beat the darkness at Eden park. Eye on the prize. Concentrate on that one for now. If you pull it off the rugby world is at cheika's feet in a rwc year
