So we're saying that France illegally beat the All Blacks 2007? :) I'M SUING!! lol

The only way it is possibly punishing the Wallbies is on the field for this one game. (And if the Wallabies win without him, what then?) In every other respect, the Wallabies and the game of rugby in general wins.

Word.

There was a benefit to the competitions involved for bringing NZ teams into their comps. There really isn't much of a benefit to the ITM Cup to bring Aussie teams in. It's like the Super 15 without the Saffas and the best players from NZ and Aussie.

Not too upset. I thought we might have gone a bit better but the Boks never looked like scoring a try (I'm not sure they were actually trying either) and for a few handling errors, the game would have been a lot closer. Thought the ref had some bad calls - Thompson got penalised at one stage...

That is some pretty funny shit....LMFAO

Based on the fact that they came prepared to play and they took the Wallabies very, very seriously. Even the intensity in the haka showed the level of respect the ABs have for the Wallabies. I think the Wallabies may have thought that the ABs mite not have taken them seriously enough due to the...

I don't think Henry ever said the Wallabies should respect the ABs. I'd even suggest that the All Blacks actually had more respect for the Wallabies than vice versa at Eden Park

I don't know if it would. When you have Beale, JOC (James O'Connor) and Ioane as a back 3 (and Mitchell coming back) do you really shuffle your defense around THAT much to get QC (Quade Cooper) back there?

What?!?! There are 15 guys who have played more than 82 (83?) Tests??? They must've started when they were like....11?!?!:D

You don't see Sivivatu or Gear or Jane or Mils coming in from the wing or FB to defend the 10 channel as a deliberate, planned strategy. Let's put it like this.....is the Wallaby defensive strategy designed first and formost to give QC (Quade Cooper) a platform to launch his counter-attacking or to cover...

Mealamu

If QC (Quade Cooper) could defend like WIlkinson or Carter, do you reckon we would still see him at the back so much in defense?

yeah, JDV and David Lemi from Manu Samoa - Pool game from 2007 RWC

Yeah....I think there's a 48 hr 'stand-down' period where you cannot replace the injured player. And once someone is replaced thru injury, they cannot rejoin the team.

From the NZ Herald this morning:

Rod Davies wishes someone had told Manu Samoa and Alesana Tuilagi. This is rugby - there's no such thing as fuckn international friendlies. If you want a friendly, go play soccer.

So to be clear....that was the Wallaby 'A' Team that Manu Samoa beat-up?? Cheeeeeeehooooooooo!!

Awesome post dude. With the vidoes that come out from here highlighting McCaw or the Boks or the breakdown in general, I always find it amusing that so many people, all watching excatly the same thing - in some cases over and over again, all seem to find different infringements or can explain...

Did Quade actually make a few tackles last night?!?!?! That's what would piss me off if I was his coach or teammate - you obviously can make tackles.....why don't you just do it all the time in stead of looking like you wish you were somewhere else? Anyway - he made a couple of important ones...
