And McReight made more metres, more turnovers, and more dominant tackles. You can cherry pick all you like, but the reality is that they both had a few stats where they bested the other, but were relatively (if not exactly) even elsewhere. No denying Tizzano had a cracking season, and I'd...

As someone who's never been to ChCh, what's it like as 'a destination' for such an event? The appeal about Super Round in Melbourne (and Magic Round in Brisbane) is that the rugby can very easily become almost secondary to the rest of the weekend's activities.

I understand, however the execution in this instance seemed to open up a bit of risk regarding the interpretation and application of that law - including whether the opposition were offside at the point the ball had ‘clearly left the mark’. Thankfully it had no impact, but that was just my...

Fuck me, Lonergan nearly absolutely bottled that tap by holding his foot on the ball.

Typical, but pleasingly cathartic

Delicious

Angus Gardner is most consistent in my eyes - I like his level and clarity of communication, and being technical enough whilst still letting the game flow.

Do we need a halftime welfare check on Dismal?

As you say, to err is human and variability (incl. in decision making) is a normal part of human performance - there need to be systems in place to reduce the likelihood of gross error. The issue for me is that, in theory, these systems are in place (AR, TMO, post-match reviews), but they are...

Yeah needed the launch during regular season and then a big campaign during Lions for mine. More than a small part of me is concerned that the weird rollout is as a result of things not being finalised in the background.

Man can only be so strong in the face of raw, undeniable passion

Is this a threat or a promise? Do I hear GAGR wedding bells?

This is being rolled out in such a bizarre way. Should’ve been an announcement with fanfare before the end of the regular season when the (small number of) casuals tune out.

Truly one of the great ambassadors of the game. Reflecting back on the discourse around the time of his big contract is pretty funny in hindsight. It really is devastating that he didn't get his deserved sendoff - but part of me suspects that he would prefer it that way, anyway.

Doran has JOC (James O'Connor) being surplus to the 'Saders needs and close to signing a 12mo deal with Leicester.

Can't you read? It says "using survey and social media date combined". Clear as! Pretty weird though - surely JAS usurps every other play over the last 12mo. Ryley Batt, Harry Bates, Paul Skenes, and Ben Simmons all getting a mentions seems a bit odd as well.

Honestly, I'd prefer that to the cheap-looking, Etsy-style 'Create your family crest!' thing. (side note, what a rort lmao)

Very, very strong disagree (at least with the crest - the quins style design is good)
