Agreed; so does the Number 8 for Southern Districts (Vaea?).

I agree with both of you Re: Dunning. I actually kind of feel sorry for him and Giteau. Dunning was brought in in difficult circumstances and was most certainly underdone. Giteau got moved around and recieved the Wallaby 10. jersey post Larkham but I never felt he showed the same zest in it...

::) Surely you jest.

Agreed, Hugh, but I thought Turner was a standout. Plays with real passion, something lacking from a lot of professionals.

Was that McCafferey, BB, or was it Chisholm?

Don't know when this was announced, thought it would be worth chucking on the site though. I like the way the IRB colours are being used each world cup with a host nation twist on the design. Should be interesting when England and Japan's turns come around. Any thoughts?

What is this, the fucking UN? :) And 8, too.

WTF does Hosea Gear have to do to get in the NZ squad?

Really? Damn.

Wing? No thankyou. I don't recall him ever tearing up in league, and the quality of Japanese footy is questionable. If he did come to the Rebels I would predict he'd be the Rebel equivalent of Hendrik Roodt.

If Matfield tours you'd expect he'd be captain. I'd pick him, too. Smith (J) and Burger are both good leaders, but you don't have to be captain to lead a side.

So a situation like in A Scanner Darkly isn't too impossible?

I hope they use "London Calling" for the London Olympics.

Eastwood fan here who occasionally despises Uni. Topo is right. Sydney Uni get the advantage this year, but it's not like the system was brought in this year. Who's to say that Uni's opposition wouldn't prefer the opportunity to prove themselves against some truly world class players, and to...

Ruggo's and Moses' suggestions in consideration, what about this for an idea; a "red button" alternate to the commentary that has: Optional referee's microphone feed Optional scoreboard Optional player ID box* *Doesn't exist (yet, hopefully); a box in one of the corners of the screen...

No doubt the best quote from Schmoo's twitter.

That's actually a pretty convincing argument (I mean the part about sun protection outside/beanie warmth inside).

I don't get the Bray fray going on around here. He mistakes players appearances as much as or less than the Fox team do. He is a seasoned rugby commentator and an iconic part of rugby in Australia. Is the fact that he has grey hair the main reason you think he should retire?

Where was Shepherd mentioned? Was he mentioned?

Happened to Stephen Jones for the BI Lions in SA last year; a kick right in front, the ball fell off the tee before he could strike it and he was forced to try and snap a drop goal (but missed).
