3 Gilbert Beale 2 Nathan Sharpe 1 Lachie Turner Note to the Gaggerland's Nickname committee. I propose "the Wind" for Lachie Turner as in "Run like the wind", or "Forest" as in "Run, Forest, Run".

Moses, can we add a wiki entry for Hall of fame teams? I am sure that Randwick are not the only club to have produced a hall of fame team. If Randwick has produced 100 Men in Gold, then 700+ have been produced from somewhere else.

If the Darkness descends tonight, there is no way I will venture to Honkers to see the Men in Gold humiliated, but when we win tonight, I'll be on to Cathay Pacific first thing Monday.

I still want to see the list of appropriate responses to the Haka from the various nations. England: Get out the bells and hankies and do a Morris Dance around a May Pole. Scotland: Brave Heart Family Jewelry Display in Ceremonial Kilt lifting Australia: Queanbeyan RU stlye, A couple of Utes...

Get into the public schools. Teachers are too busy these days, so if ARU can rock up with everything to run a one Rugby comp, they will be very happy - pre-comp clinics, Wallaby/S15 stars, referees, coaches, ovals, comp rules, canteen, T Shirts & posters for participants. Run these clinics...

Nick Farr-Jones = Kick Too Farr-Jones (from The Fitz Files)

I have noted several correspondents using the nickname "Scafie" for our most esteemed Scarfman "Founder of the Scarf". Four your info a "scarfie" is a term used in New Zullund to refer to a university student. Believed to come from the fact that in Dunedin where it is soo bloody cold for...

33-16 1 YC to All Black Front row 1 YC to Bam Bam PoCaw who will get sprung doing what His Most Excellency Sir R McCawe does so well. MOTM will be M Lawrence's whistle Men in Gold will again succumb to bad oranges in a game of two halves.

All Black Team Named : Five Changes From the NZ Herald: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=10672103 There are five changes to the All Blacks side for Saturday night';s Bledisloe Cup test against Australia in Sydney. As expected Aaron Cruden and Piri Weepu...

There have been too many top level professional players slip over in rugby and mungoball. When wet/damp in the past, you just got out the long studs. Forwards seem to still have screw in studs, and are able to adjust their grip for night games when there is a bit of dew about. The amount of...

awesome play - scoop, shimmey, chip and chase, regather, and feed off to the 13 to fall over the line for 7 points at oranges. All this from a 101 Test Capped veteran. Priceless

Speaking of muppets, Watching the replay on Fox, Just seen Mr W Barnes give the "held up" signal before going upstairs to ask about Moore's try. Should have been the "Timeout" T sign and the "going upstairs" TV square sign. While Barnsey didn't have too bad a game, I think it was a...

The Bloomers crowd was motivational for the Bokke. When things were not good in 1st 1/2 they got quieter and quieter, and ended up booing some of their own. A tough bunch of ferals who appear to have no problems eating their own young. 2nd half, the crowd rose with the Saffer performance...

Like poor old Beez Kneez in Safferland, alcohol sometimes causes us to say, do, and type things we may otherwise not say, do or type. Notwithstanding Moses's contributions, there are some classics in the live GAGR call. I suspect alcohol was a factor.

Do not be so harsh on yourself Cyclo. I think the constant theme of "the Men in Gold are starting to listen to G&GR" may have been motivating factor. Probably not but there is nothing better than the "I told you so", or "You read about it here first" feeling. Methinks AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) was going for a PB...

Bokke have played poorly this 3N, particularly in defence. Perhaps coaches have sat on laurels believing that all they needed to do was turn up to win. Too much S14 success may have reinforced that false sense of security. Coach behaving like a pork chop and not changing players or tactics on...

Greatest victory possibly, only because we so very nearly stuffed it up. Greatest game - Na. Too many basic errors by both teams to warrant that tag. A game of two halves as they say in the classics.

Replay is on Fox1 at 11am.

And meanwhile on Fox, the NZ Commentators during ITM Cup games have said that there is a bit of debate going on in Kiwiland about the inconsistencies of the scrum calls. They said it is like "...trying to hold back a pack of wild horses with a few pieces of string" :-)
