I heard something rather profound the other day - Constructive criticism, at the end of the day it's still just criticism. What is constructive about calling him fat and the hyperbole about him being the most destructive influence on the game? How did you measure that anyway?

In stark contrast to the positivity coming from your posts wamberal..... As for GG, I switched off reading him regularly about 10 years ago, lately it's once in a blue moon. I think the overwhelming feeling that started to come through in his articles was a level of discouragement that he could...

Add Adam Frier at hooker and Australia would qualify to enter the hobbit league

Please go on about those memories, because I only remember good times - Bledisloe back, 50 points on the Wallabies :) In seriousness though, with both Smith and Waugh starting it put extra pressure on the likes of Kefu, Giffin, Vickerman, Norieaga to pick up the ball carrying. Kefu fine, that...

I can also confirm that Deans doesn't like surnames starting with S.

Sumo's hilarious without being over the top and trying to turn the game into comedy hour. He occasionally visits the Silverfern forum too. Marshall was one of my favourite players of all time, and like hi enthusiasm for the game and it definitely comes through the mic. But he makes a fair...

Cyclo, Conrad's just a gangly looking guy that looks like his 16yo. Surely he doesnt get up to these old head moves :). I must say that the taking of space was effectively utilised by Horwill, Samo, Beau Robinson and S. Finger for the Reds in 2011. Simmons was the exponent of the ruck work 5-6...

Every thread doesn't always have to be about Quade. Anyway wasn't Quade having a go at the national side of things and Berry hasn't been a Wallaby as far as I'm aware. Very unfortunate news for Berry. One of the Crusaders favourite sons (Leon MacDonald) had head injury issues and got out while...

Ahhhh I'm getting all nostalgic with you reminding me of the So'oialo and Collins era :)

Bu bu bu but what about the facilities?

Carlos Tevez could have had someone to blame for all his problems.....

There's just this tiny small issue of money.....

Knight has been all over the Echo issues for some time. She's written another piece this morning with the announcement that Katie Lahey has been appointed to the Board. Lahey's appointment would be as a strong positive move - now Crown links/baggage, was an excellent lobbyist when CEO of the...

Damo it's only 3 games the difference between Boks and ABs. That's hardly "a lot more"

Shame those stats won't be added to because of the way he's handled this.

Isn't it about accountability to someone though? A CEO is accountable to the Board and they should be holding him to the sword for the job he is/isn't doing. Like Quade, JON isn't bigger than the game and his bosses should be making that known. But I suspect there hasn't been any serious...

Last time I heard, a Reds (only) contract would equate to chump change to SBW... :)

The back line is where the issues will be come next week. It's going to be a tough one for the selectors. 15 Morahan 14 McCabe 13 Fainga'a 12 Harris 11 Shipperley 10 Beale 9 Phipps 20 Sheehan 21 Tapuai 22 Curly

3. Hooper 2. TPN 1. Phipps (the winger version) :) Can't vote for McCabe or Beale. The defence was poor from both.
