Was it just me or did the ruck area in both the NZ and Wallaby games look like the rucks from last year? eg. tacklers not releasing the ball carriers before going for the turnover. I thought both refs could have done better in the contact. Compared with what we saw in the 3N, I thought the...

Can I play for the NZ team?? Played with a Ponsonby Team a few years back....and I know a good pub close to Eden Park....actually dedicated my son in that pub a couple of years ago :)

Let the man talk trash if he wants....if he can't back it up then he'll look the worse for it. I doubt he put Carter in the shade though. When Carter left the field the ABs were up twice as many points as the Wallabies. Some may argue that his benching was the most influential factor in the...

Surely you are not comparing one's standard of play in the ITM Cup to another's standard of plat at Test rugby??? Even as a kiwi and staunch AB fan - I'd take Genia over Ellis.

Unbelievable. The Wallabies win one game after 10 straight defeats and we're "thuck"??? For every QC (Quade Cooper), JOC (James O'Connor), KB (Kurtley Beale) and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) you have running around we have a Dan Carter, Corey Jane, Mils Muliaina and Conrad Smith. Not mention some pretty sharp forwards who take your forward pack to pieces 9 times out...

Don't you just love that 5 sec pause after Murray's dumb-ass comment.....what must the other guys be thinking...LMAO

Yeeeeehaaa!!!!!! NOW we're talking!!

On a fairly basic level, when you're 'crabbing' across field, you're usually either going to try and beat your man on the outside or create space back on the inside for the guy outside you to cut back or the full-back to hit the line back on the inside of you. You don't really want the guys...

I couldn't find the quote but there was one Test where he made the comment that "such-and such (I can't remember the name) would be turning in his grave if he saw that." There was a pause before one of the other commentators said, "He's not dead Murray." Absolute legend.....an idiot but a...

From the one-and-only Murray Mexted: "Andy Ellis - the 21 year old, who turned 22 a few weeks ago" "He scored that try after only 22 seconds - totally against the run of play." "I would not say he (Rico Gear) is the best left winger in the Super 14, but there are none better."...

Most of us are well on the way by half-time aren't we ;) LOL

To be fair, some of the reporters and the questions they ask aren't always well-thought out or particularly insightful either.

I don't know about 'nasty piece of work' but I'd agree that he's done some fairly ugly things in his time. Can't think of any in particular although I do have a vague recollection of the Palu incident. I think I was hoping Palu would pop him one right in the mouth.....

How long will it take for you guys to realise that McCaw is actually Superman in his spare time???? :D

Hey Scotty, As long as the ball is not in the tunnel and McCaw uses his feet/lower leg then he's entitled to compete for it. If the ball is still in the tunnel then only the front row can try to hook it.

Sorry, one game out of the dozens these guys have played each other. Nowhere near the consistency as Pocock has.....would you take Waugh over Pocock??

I agree....I've been a fan of his for a while....he makes it f**ken hard work tho sometimes!!

I remember cheering for the Tah's in that game. Geez I hate Canterbury!!

After all the Tests these guys have played against each other and you're gonna pick a S14 game to try and say that Waugh is a better 7 than McCaw...laughable. Just because Gits and Barnes have played at a position doesn't mean there actually good at that position. Otherwise, Gits would still...

lol.......
