Ah, thats right. Comedy of errors. Hope we dont see these kinds of howlers in the RWC.

I'd say what I fully think about Barry's remarks but I'd get banned for life. To put it as lightly as I can he's a douche.

I'm not a Stu fan at all but to give him & other referees a break I think the lack of input or the wrong input from "Assistant Referees" is pretty shocking at times. Maybe some of them still think they are just "touchies" & dont realise that they are supposed to help the main ref on the park...

I wouldnt consider it a steal when Donnelly was being treated like he wasnt even wanted. I have said it before there is no such thing as poaching or stealing talent, players go to other teams if they are miserable or lacking opportunites, forced out because they are no longer good enough, or...

Agree with everyone, Jamie Joseph has stuffed up big time in my view.

Getting into RWC mode but from the Saders front I'm very happy to see this news that with the departure of a couple of locks the Crusaders have recruited a very good player in Donnelly. I know he's had a couple of injuries but I think he's a great buy...

For mine its potentially Ireland v USA, the game is scheduled for 9/11, the USA would have to have some serious emotions and motivation to play well. Ireland have been playing crap leading up the RWC (shame cause I love Ireland). USA long shots but you never know.

I like the way people think here, much less stressed now :)

There are women like myself who are obsessed with Rugby and are getting screwed ourselves, we are rare but we are out there, so spare a thought. Up until last night I have been looking forward to having a 42inch plasma TV all to myself complete with lap top set up all ready for RWC. I get a...

Agree but I wouldnt say just younger players, look at the likes of Samo & Vickerman and few others still around, Robbie gives players a good enough chance but ultimately rewards form I find rather than reputation. Even at club level there is nothing that pisses me off more than players simply...

Players...so many players... Trying to figure out whether to go with players I know or take a punt on a few outside backs from Fiji & Scotland who I think could rack up some big scores. I'd like to know who Namibia & Romania have played leading up to the cup & what sort of style they play to...

Ta Nusadan, provided no one miraculously gets more points that were not added on I am positively stoked :)

Looking forward to Fantasy World Cup Rugby now. Is the points tallying for the Fantasy Tri-nations actually over? Cause if it is my "Stockton Schooners" have got No.1 on G&GR which is pretty good given the Rugby brains we've got on here.

Yes, and I'd like to know what is that band thing he wears, I believe around the back or hip area. I've seen it in other games, it looks a bit like a weight lifters back support belt. Does someone know what it actually is? I've seen a few league players wear similar bands on their thighs, maybe...

PRE FINALS PREVIEW Premier Qualifying Finals SATURDAY 27th AUG Premier 1 Hamilton v Southern Beaches Hamilton slipped up last week against a re-emerging Wanderers side but I still think they’ll come through with a win against Beaches who in their short history in Premier Rugby have done...

Amen.

On the second rowers, as a fellow Donnelly I feel for Tom Donnelly (and I'm just a little biased there), injuries ruined him of any chance of being picked but if he was fully fit I'd say him in the AB's second row would be stronger. Donnelly was playing his ring out in the ABs jersey when he was...

Yep, we've already tried to advance the haka with our womens team, the Wallaroos walked in one line, arms linked, to meet the haka, crossed the 10m line & got fined by the IRB. I know we lost that game but what I loved was their attitude as I asked my team capt who was a reserve hooker for that...
