Shorter than Carl Hayman, who would have to rate as one of the best tighthead props of the last 10 years.

Given the pool structure, we really want to finish the pool stage with 15 points and a whopping for and against. Otherwise we play New Zealand or probably England in the semi. The ideal would be for England and New Zealand to play each other in a semi-final to wear each other out. So we can...

Maybe Godwin should get some peer coaching from Berrick Barnes.

If we defend out wide like that against NZ we'll get torn to shreds

I wonder if Idi Amin came down for the game. He's a Scotland fan...

Godwin reminds me of Larkham. Great running/passing skills but a kicking game that leaves a lot to be desired.

The streaming through Super Sport is awesome. http://www.supersport.com/video/playLive.aspx?ids=27671&retunUrl=/video/playLive.aspx?ids=27671 Well done South Africa.

Mark White, the Force's head media and comms guy, resigned earlier this year. His position might be taken over by Elise Goodin who was the 2nd in command of M&C. Perhaps then Elise's former position would be available? It couldn't hurt to phone them and ask.

It might be some solace to remind Tah fans that in 2007, the year after the Force were introduced, you guys finished second last. 2012 is the year after the Rebels were introduced and you guys aren't looking much better. But in 2008 you were back in the grandfinal and very nearly won it. It...

Pieter de Villiers. Chuck Norris as defence coach.

I wouldn't mind having him back at the Force. He was good in 2006 but the double knee job buggered him up a bit. Was he any good at Agen?

Paul O'Connell was originally a swimmer I think.

Reds have a great run home. You've got a bye and you'd have to be favourites over the Rebels, Highlanders and Waratahs. Definitely 12 points in the season for you guys. Shame about Horwill.

That's a no on rule outs from Barbarians matches. A player is only 'locked in' to a country if they play the national representative side or the second national rep side (e.g. Ireland, Junior All Blacks, etc). As the Barbarians aren't a national rep side they don't count.

You guys have had 5 years of brooding and being jealous. We are trying to catch up.

I think he would be great to have. AFAIK he is uncapped so could come in as a development player. With the Lions on the brink of being relegated, there is no better time.

Call me crazy, but I still have a lingering hope that we will leapfrog both you guys and the Tahs before the end of the season. We have the Lions, a bye and then home Brumbies and away Blues. I reckon with the bye there is 12 points in that. Now if you could just go through 5 weeks without any...

Maybe we'll get lucky and Elton Jantjies will stay in Perth.

There is no point comparing them unless it is for Wallaby selection. How would each player's game suit that? I think Hooper is clearly better at S15 level but would he be able to do those slippery eel tackle busts against higher quality Test level defences? I'm biased, but while those two are...

To be fair, we hate everyone east of the Nullabor. Except the Tasmanians. They understand.
