Does Pocock need a rest in the World Cup? He missed (from memory) at least 8 games this Super Season and wasn't burdened with any finals games. I can't see why he wouldn't play all games in this WC unless RD wants to cotton wool him. I think with his stop and start season he will benefit from...

According to Gits Twitter, he has been given notice that he won't be heading to NZ. giteau_rugby Really wanna thank everyone for the support! Was a huge honour to get the chance to represent my country as often as I did giteau_rugby Thank u ballboys, thank u linesman! That's it...

18 foot tall and fucking bullet proof.

I'm pretty sure I could find a South African Doctor that wouldn't mind writing a few sick notes.

I was thinking of all the number 8's that have played post Kefu and can think of 10 that have played in the last 10 years. I'm not sure how that compares to other positions but to me it seems like a lot. I think we have probably had a preferred number 8 for those periods but other have gotten a...

I wouldn't drop him Higgers for poor form but I think he is much better utilised as impact off the bench. I'm wondering how important the 8 - 9 combo is for a team. I know in 99' we had Kefu / Gregan, 07 the saffas has Rossouw / Du Preez. What are your thoughts on that combination - is it just...

Ahh fair enough, they just need to cut the time down and chuck them in at scrum time. There always seems to be some medical treatment required then. Asking for longer breaks is a bit balls though. I remember watching a ice hockey game in Vancouver where they took breaks for adds. Made the...

Did anyone watch the game on channel 9 last night? I know they take the fox feed, but they have no fucking idea when to slide in add breaks. They even took up the second half feed 40 seconds into the game. I will personally be boycotting swisse vitamins because they fucked up my universe last night.

I think they lead with their heads.

Yea, well Hitler was a vegertarian.

This is what I am seeing. I'm sure Robbie wasn't whispering into Quades ear 'If you pass the ball less than 30m, it will explode!'. I would like to know what the discussion is during the 'injury' breaks. Surely if we can all see what is going wrong while nursing a pie and a beer with a kiwi...

Anyone else noticed that Radike Samo is missing from the list?

Well I was pretty damn proud of my cat pumpers until I realised it was littered with farking Stormers players who will be out for round one. I've given myself an uppercut and gone back to the drawing board.

Bugger it, put Morgan Turunui, Tom Carter and Willie Carne on the bench. With that backline, they would rack up eleventy seven points before any of them have to come off injured.

Bloody Giteau and Michale Clarke can go off and play leap frog reach around together. Two bloody protected cat pumpers who never lived up to the hype.

He isn't in the team as a prop. Rod MacQueen is just shit scared of Rodan.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGm0xJVqfKk&feature=related

I agree with Disco. I think that a team should have 2 hard running backs excluding the wingers. Previously we have had Latham + Mortlock, or our centre combo's in the 90's / early naughties. Given the experience that AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) has all over the park, I couldn't see a reason why (if he were playing...

I have a feeling that the size of the front row is affecting them not only in terms of power but in the the general binding of the scrum. For example, the tight head locks right shoulder should be in line with the spine of the tight head prop and the same for the loose side. If the front row...

I do recall our previous great fly half being always the first to get involved in a brouhaha. I certainly don't mind a bit of that at all as long as he doesn't carry on like a cat pumper.
