    The Impending Beale vs Folau vs Cooper debate

    Good call - be very interested to see how he would go in the 13 jersey. His outside break and passing game would be significantly better than anyone playing that position in Australia. Would like to see him trialled at 13 for the tahs playing an old school Gary Ella like role with Folau, ACC...

    James Horwill cited for stamping

    not the clearest pic but reckon that could have been the incident......thanks. Paulie seems to have a get out of jail free card when it comes to lions tours

    James Horwill cited for stamping

    Not sure there was not the slightest suggestion of such a thing having had occurred.......... I was at the game and didn't see anything - but the Leinster fans certainly posted about it afterwards including some pretty damning pictures - which I did see. Have just done a quick search and can't...

    James Horwill cited for stamping

    The righteous indignation on here is surprising for a group of blokes who claim to play the game. We all know the rugby judiciary system lost all credibility a long time ago - it is a political farce that is a blight on a great game and needs to be fixed. Unfortunately forcing Horwill to face...

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    O'Driscoll yet again proved to be an ungracious plonker in his post match comments. I hope they make it on to the changing room wall for the second test. We don't need stomping from any Australian player, let alone the captain. Kevvy needs to sit out a few matches - and unfortunately I don't...

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    Agreed - an average mark of 5 across the team after getting so close after so much crap luck is disrespectful to both the wallabies and the team they were playing. Apart from some poor kicking out of hand (Barnes/Genia) and off the tee (O'Connnor/Beale), the wallabies were much the better team...

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    I have to say I agree with this - Diggers was the most anonymous player on the park. Beiber to the wing and bring in To'omua (or any other fly half)

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    I just put myself through the pain of the replay and if anyone can feel aggrieved at a breakdown decision I think it must be poor Benn Robinson giving away the penalty that put the lions out to 23

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    Its the same here in Ireland.......but anyone who penalises Paulie and BOD will get that - and in fairness it seems to be coming mainly from the fellas who think that Stephen Jones knows what he is talking about

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    It is too easy to focus on injuries, goal kicking and refereeing decisions as reasons for the loss. I Think it was poor kicking out of hand (both the quality of the kicks and the quality of the decisions to kick) that lost the wallabies the game. We kept gifting possession to the lions - in...

    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    Stats can be misleading - Fatcat probably had the most clean linebreaks. I thought Palu made some outstanding contributions as first man to the breakdown. Two or three times that he arrived first at a tackle he immediately took the tackled player to ground fast (eliminating any possibility of...

    Waratahs v. B&I Lions - Saturday 15 June 2013

    Sorry for being a pedant, but he went to ground on four consecutive scrums. My have been the Tahs not being able take the hit, but his side did go down four times. 63:25 Hibbard and Corbs go forward but pop up - reset 64:20 Corbs side collapses- Tahs penalised 65:13 Corbs side collapses going...

    Hibbard a Corbs split again at this scrum - not sure I am convinced by this Lions front row

    wouldn't mind seeing that last play again. Looked a lot like the ruck was well formed before Liebenburg got his hands on the ball?
