Blues pretty close to their strongest line up. This could be hard to call this week. Going to enjoy weeing Baylin Sullivan Reiko Ioane battle, would suspect the Canes will be stronger in loosies, and so could help.

Isn't one of the big things with rest week they don't train? So pehaps not want to play them?

Geez , I should of remembered that Strewth think it was before I came home.

Chhers BH, was probably mentioned he was David's boy and I was in my own little world and missed it.:confused: Breeding comes through often doesn't it, I was always keen on David when he was around.Is my memory right and he played for Easts in Qld, I know I saw his picture or something on a...

NZR and INEOS have come to an out of court settlement it seems, no figures given obviously, but pleased it done with. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/360635811/new-zealand-rugby-and-ineos-come-settlement-avoid-lengthy-legal-fight

Just out of interest , that Wilson at 9 for the Tahs, where has he come from. I liked the look of him.

Interesting they quoted Tin Horan on it, and obviously hadn't read that the tests were all in Aus, as they talked about having it at Christchurch etc. I will be interested to hear what they think of the idea of holding the WC in the Gulf States, as it looks like they are suggesting big money to...

Ok mate. like I said I saw whole interview, and I took it as a considered response, but no worries you took it different. I usually like his interviews because he tends to give well thought out answers etc, and doesn't use all the quotes. I remember one for example when the Canes lost, and the...

It certainly has none of the elements in those NRL videos that I can see. He is basically tackled around ankles from the angle of that video. I actually thought when it happened he had twisted his ankle. It sucks for the poor bugger if it a long term injury. He looks a pretty handy young fella...

Was quite amused on Saturday, opening club day here in the Naki etc, and was over at Kaponga. Sitting behind the Kaponga deadball line was Ranfurly Shield, then it was sitting in bar in clubrooms. It was sign on day for juniors etc so Naki union said they could borrow the shield for a few days...

Pleased to see that WOB. Whether he AB 10-15 or not, love the fact he or any players sticking around, Been good reading rugby downunder when he re-signs and Wallabies seem to of got quite a few of their boys sticking around.

I have to admit, I thought Noah was going to come on more than he has, but from what I have seen Lynagh would be one who has surpassed him?

To piss you off?? But genuinely why was that posted, it made it look like the Tahs were being treated as a joke, and they weren't.

Canes and Naki winger, Kini Naholo off to Japan after NPC. Heard the rumour and have a chat to Taranaki bigwig at rugby on weekend , he confirmed it.

Too true WOB, almost every player that is in Super have done it after playing NPC. They don't turn into good rugby players by just training, buy also by playing experience. A few get found out at that level too.

That's a nice bit of editting I think. I watched it and Kirifi was just thinking of what to say, he said after that Tahs were hard work, but was saying how there are no easy games etc. He actually went on to say that No11 team can beat No1 he thought etc. He doesn't use cliches that a lot of...

Geez he been so good for MP (Moana Pasifika) for a few weeks. The whole team went really well I thought, but the difference Pellergrini and Savea have made is quite stunning. Pellergrini steers them around field so well, and get the feeling Savea is driving them when they have their moments of turning off, he...

What is a hip drop tackle? Not a NRL watcher , and I don't quite understand what it is. Interesting thing on tackles, was going to mention a week or so ago how pissed I was at IWL in a game using shoulder only in a tackle. Although I a Canes man I would of been more then happy if that had been...

I thought the Brumbies deserved win, they went well. Although I a Canes man, I still impressed so much by the Highlanders. How may Wallabies in that Brumbies teams? I guessing 7-8 ? The Clan had exactly 0 ABs and then going that close to a team laden with test players speaks a lot for the...

Well I am real happy and extremely surprised, I wasn't joking when I said before game I was worried when we lost Godfrey at 10. So apologies to Riley Hohepa for not giving him enough credit, same with Sullivan who I have questioned his defence, Same as IWL, he went real well. But huge kudos go...
