What a game! Absolute dominance by the Wallabies in the majority of the first half and then...

Last night to prepare these statistics I watched the game for the first time since seeing it...

Final Score: Brumbies 61 – Cheetahs 15

Four weeks into the season now and things are still looking good for our group.  Our league average is now clear of our closest competition by more than 100 points and looks to be putting on distance each week.  Much of that success we owe to our league leader for the 3rd...

The Australian Schoolboys team were given a lesson in composure by NZ Secondary Schools at Ballymore tonight...

So far this season the Wallabies have let themselves down in just one, sometimes two facets of the game. Tonight, they fucked every single one. The scrum, lineout, breakdown, kicking, discipline, running, passing; all sucked. It was only an average defensive performance that kept them anywhere near the match. The heroics in...

When a man turns 50, it is a time of reflection. It’s the sort of thing that gives an individual pause for thought. What is the higher meaning of life? How can the collective group that is mankind profit from one blokes endeavour? If there are no guarantees and nothing lasts forever...

A lot’s been said about the Wallabies lack of discipline conspiring to lose the test at Newlands, but despite 3 yellow cards in one game, what I believe did more to self sabotage the Wallabies was their failure to maintain field position and pressure through a dismal line-out performance. Below you’ll see...

There’s been a lot of opinion from both sides of the Indian about Matt Giteau’s hit on...

I haven’t had a chance to re-watch the footage yet, but here are some initial thoughts from Newlands last night. The performance of our young bench players was very encouraging. JOC was exceptional from the outset, TPN played brilliantly and together with Ben Alexander and Benn Robinson formed a scrum so dominant...

South Africa 31 New Zealand 19 The Springboks circled their wagons and fought off the sheep shagging hordes to register a convincing win over an error riddled All Black team who’s mojo certainly isn’t working. Be warned Wallabies, this Bokke side is the real deal. On the back of a match winning...

FINAL SCORE 22-16 to the ABs For how it happened

For a Wallaby supporter this is a vicious tease of a match. Standing defiantly is the wily 23 year old Eden Park minx, and laid out like a string of Bacardi Breezers before her is the key to melting this ice maidens defences. It’s only fitting that the French and Italians –...

When not being director of performing arts at Summer Heights High, Matt “Trisha” Goddard is officially Australia’s campest referee. Two weeks ago he was all-a-tizzy with those brutes who forced him to hand out so many yellow cards, but this week it was even worse – CLASHING OUTFITS! OMFG! Watch and listen...
