    Springbokke vs Pumas

    Well it's been a day of upsets hasn't it! Not the best refereeing performance and 2 obvious debate able decisions for me, BUT I would also say that Argentina were good for the win and the better team. SA looked a little lost when plan A didn't work didn't they? P.s Hernandez and Matera were...

    So basically we didn't learn anything. I think most people knew this anyway

    Non-Wallaby RWC Warm Up Matches

    I thought both welsh 2nd rows put their weight about actually, so a bit of depth there for them. As for Amos, he's dropped a lot of high balls already for me.

    Non-Wallaby RWC Warm Up Matches

    Halftime 25 - 7 to Ireland. First 35 minutes were complete domination for Ireland, and Wales let in some very soft looking tries. Irish didn't deviate from their 6Ns plan of play territory based rugby, helped by a few dodgy Welsh line outs and a dominant Irish scrum. I suppose as a positive...

    Bledisloe #1 - AUS v NZL, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, August 8th

    Congrats Wobbalies from here in England. Not the result I wanted I'll be honest... Doesn't help is to have yo guys getting confidence! haha Congrats though, now go get smashed!

    He has only been given 1 chance, against the All Blacks, where he hardly looked out of his depth. His defence against Savea was pretty damn impressive actually.

    Haha I believe that would be corruption surely!?! Personally I would have him as the 2nd choice 10 (I'm bias for Ford as a Bath fan) and not bother taking Farrell. But we all know that won't happen.

    Yep, the police still haven't charged him with anything yet. It has been months now so there can hardly be any real evidence about him drink driving surely?

    RWC Squads

    England have cut seven players from their squad: Yarde, Rokoduguni, Dickson, Eastmond, Mullan, Kvesic, Ashton Bit disappointed at the losses of Yarde, Roko and Eastmond as I think all 3 have serious potential but hey, I'm not the coach.

    Bledisloe #1 - AUS v NZL, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, August 8th

    Do you not think it wold work better with Giteau at 10 and To'omua at 12? To'omua's extra physicality in that pair would work better at 12 surely.

    Pumas vs Wallabies, 25th July 2015, Mendoza

    Pushing ends up making contact with a straightening arm, but they are still different things. It was clearly a push to me, followed by something nasty in spanish. Though that last bit is a guess. Sanchez bumping into Pocock was funny though. As for SANZAR inconsistencies I have to admit I...

    Doubt it since it was a push not a punch ;)

    Pumas vs Wallabies, 25th July 2015, Mendoza

    Just seen the game and while I have to say the Wallabies were the dominant side and played better, you lot were lucky to not play half that game with men off the pitch. At least 3 possible cards (Folau taking a man out in the air, Skeltons grab around the neck and Hoopers punch). P.s How...

    Springboks v All Blacks, Ellis Park 25/7/2015

    Ah ok, still a real shame since common sense could have said that he has played TH to a high standard so could handle it, but thems the rules. Real shame for the boks as it robbed them of a weapon I feel. Especially as it occurred on a 5m scrum.

    Springboks v All Blacks, Ellis Park 25/7/2015

    And yet I would still take them over Stuart Barnes :D They weren't great though.

    Springboks v All Blacks, Ellis Park 25/7/2015

    Not sure why the boks went to uncontested, the commentator did say he had played at TH in super rugby right? Bloody good test though, felt SA just lost it mentally in the last 10. Also should have taken the 3 when Whitelock went off, and backed themselves to get another chance in the next 10...

    Better than their Springbok and All Black record though.

    Ah fair. I can't say I am too knowledgeable on the US players if I am honest. I know Chris Wyles is in pretty good form over here in England.

    Springboks v All Blacks, Ellis Park 25/7/2015

    It's the southern hemisphere match I always look forward to the most, always seems to provide a real cracker of a game. Plus that 'always nervous' feeling is how I get when England play France. Doesn't matter their form, they always pull something big out for us, must be how kiwi's feel about...
