And the bitter pill to swallow was the Saili try, they threw 3 x 50/50 offloads in one phase and they all went to hand leading to a try. But that wasn't their entire game plan. Tahs need to come up with something more substantial in attack and leave those miracle ball offload plays as the icing...

You're deluding yourself. The first few attacks where miracle balls went to ground were potential, the next 20 that followed were doing the same thing and expecting a different result, the definition of madness.

Shoulder charge by Nonu at the death. Should get a few weeks because of his past history.

Tahs have developed so far they don't possess the skills to use one out runners, pick and drives or keep it tight anymore. It's like they have transcended rugby and are now playing their own version or 7's Super Rugby.

Please don't, alcohol poisoning is a real thing.

Keino is going to waltz back into the ABs.

Paddy Ryan on, time for Woodcock to angle straight in.

And Phipps can be fired out of a cannon for being a moron.

For fucks sake Tahs, take the fucking tackle and recycle. These miracle balls are killing me.

So I assume they are now going to also require that 30% of the SA soccer teams are white players?

Seems risky leaving Steenkamp out, but maybe he needs a break. Great opportunity for Wykes to stand up and show what he can do.

I'd be interested to hear from a South African perspective which players you think would be a starting Bok but are currently playing in Europe? Is this seasons form of the SA super teams merely a reflection that your best players are plying their trade elsewhere? Australia and NZ really don't...

Just saw the footage, what was Flip thinking? Besides he was pretty hard done by in comparison to Steve Moore. You just can't get away with that stuff, especially when all the cameras are zoomed in on where you are trying to punch. Great for us, a little bit more confident now.

Yeah, fuck that. Play to win, or don't play at all.

The fear about Hodgo burnout are well founded. Gaffa retweeted some stats by Alistair Hogg last night. Hodgson is leading the comp in turnovers won, 18. Closest rivals Jack Lam and Marcell Coetszee on 14. Also leading the tackle count, 125 tackles with closest rival Shane Christie on 104...

Just a locality Ruggo. 2.5 hrs south of Perth near Donnybrook. The scrums last week were strange. I think it was a combo of the wet grass forcing the ref to make them pack higher but more likely a bit of mental softness. They just weren't up for that game.

Rightio, time for the Force to get back on track. This game is a must win if the Force hope to make the finals. Bulls have been bashed over east and should hopefully be tired on the way home. Not sure who is due back this week, but hopefully Alby. He is the key for us. Hoping Hayward is feeling...

Barrett, Perenara, Smith, Savea, Jane, Taylor. God damn!!! The only way I can see the Reds getting up is if they get all emotional and do it for Jimmy.

I was trying to put my finger on what was making the games so bad on the weekend. It's like 2010 all over again when the tackler wasn't being made to release before going for the ball. I feel a bit of that is creeping back in, the clear release doesn't have to be so clear once again. It took...

Some bloody good analysis in this thread. Lindo's could go up on the front page. Keep up the top work. God knows we aren't going to get anything as in depth or thoughtful from the mainstream print or tele media.
