SSHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I've said all year that Kaino in more important to the backrow and the ABs than Read is. Every tackle, every hit and every carry is done with real purpose and impact.....he's my player of the tournament so far....

Bahahahahahahahahaha.....even I can't say that last one with a straight face ;)

I'm pretty sure that you can do this. There's nothing stopping the other nations from bringing in players as well. I think teams in past RWC have brought in club teams or whatever the equivalent is to NPC-type teams for 'opposed training'.

Apparently the ABs only had to make 60-odd tackles all game with Kaino topping the AB list at 7 tackles and 2 assists, and Whitelock coming in next with 6 tackles. Argentina were shut out and had hardly any possesion in the 2nd half.

I'd put money on Paul Williams getting a penalty, if not a yellow card, if he made exactly the same tackle. Is it legal?? F**kd if I know.....lol

McCaw's stats from the game: First 3 to the breakdown: 47 times - 2nd in ABs Ball Carries: 14 for 37 metres - 2nd in ABs Tackles - 5 and 1 assist - 3rd in ABs Invisible cloak is working obviously......

the All Blacks to win. They are the only tem left who topped their pool as per every other tornament.

Well, I'd have to say that he doesn't look gone going by his play last nite. He was all over the park.

I thought the All Blacks were great last night. Never flustered, never panicked even when behind on the board. The Argies were allowed to slow the ball down a lot but the ABs just kept piling the pressure on. Set-piece looks very good. Scrums in particular look very formidable. They don't seem...

Mark Lawrence - Yes Stu Dickinson.......errrrr, No.

Sorry...was someone asking for your sympathy?!?! Oh no...they weren't....feel free to keep it for yourself

The word I got was that he pulled up lame in training today. I wish I was taking the piss and I hope my contact is wrong but us Kiwis are too gun-shy to joke about this shit man. As Big Worm might put it.....playing with the All Blacks is like playing my emotions Smokey.

I think I'd prefer Vito to Thompson. As good as he was at Super level, he hasn't convinced at Tests level. I don't think he's confrontational enough.

He may have an an inside word as well....LOL

I've heard that Richie is gone....... Announcement to be made on Saturday or after Argentina QF. Foot requires surgery.

I gotta say that I feel a bit for Sharpe. He has easily been the pick of the Wallaby locks for probably at least the last 2 years - at Super and Test level. Vickerman has basically waltzed back into the starting line-up. And I don't think Vickerman is as mongrel as some like to believe.....

You haven't clearly shown anyone's wrong or right at all. You've expressed your opinions....that is all.

I'll only comment on your Kiwi selections. Weepu could easily be another half-back to win a game. Nonu's passing game has been fantastic. Kahui on bench?!? :)

If you've listened to his interview you'd hear that he apparently ready to lose his career if it comes to that.
