I misunderstood what you meant by impact injury. Out of curiosity could you actually continue? ;)

I don't think you can really say that there is no connection between and impact injury and the team's conditioning program.

I think LG is the most senior member.

With Stanard in the lineup we could have two flyhalf/wingers in the side.

Mortlock announced to play for the Barbarians.

I'd prefer the 5 Provincial clashes to be played before the Test series.

I've tried this but not trying to get the ball in between the posts, rather to hit the posts. Straight kicking has always been more successful for me.

No winger/fullback captains, please. If a forward needs to speak to the ref, he looks up. If a back needs to speak to the ref, they need to run over, which takes precious ref handling time.

Currie Cup teams played against the BIL, and there were more than 5 if I remember correctly. The BIL also played against the Emerging Springboks. It was a pretty massive tour by todays standards.

Bit off topic, but not too much so: Blue, PB, do you think vdHeever will be able to make the cut to play for the Boks?

If we're getting robots, let's get one of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubKxznwzp08&feature=channel_video_title

"Awesome prank, Farva..."

Is this still happening?

Are there any potential NZ players that represented other countries in the RWC and are therefore ineligible? I know there were a few players I recognised from the Super 15 and was surprised to see them in the PI teams, but I'm not sure on whether they were legitimate prospects for NZ.

I'll give you Brussow, but Juan Smith!? I'd have classed him in the man-mountain category!

Show them video of the scrum in 2009: maybe it'll flick a switch upstairs. "Oh yeah, we used to be good at this!"

I agree with you that the League influence is negative, but the scrums have got to be fixed. They are an absolute farce. If this means removing the power hit and enforcing the no pushing before the ball is in rule, then let's give it a shot.

I've said it before, but once again; I'd prefer a Bledisloe Cup to a RWC any day of the week.

At 6 foot 4, 105 kilos, Read is no pony in the pack, but I agree that the size concerns should be second to effectiveness. Especially when the Wallabies usually have a 6 who is an effective lineout jumper, like Elsom, and already continue to have problems with body height in contact.

Ma'afu still needs to lose at least 10 kilos IMO.
