Re: Tri Nations Test Argentina v NZ ‘Nero Fiddles’ thread.
I find it hard to get excited by that game, error filled 1st half and a 2nd half that if not for a bit of individual brilliance would not have been much better. That was mostly an Argie B team, we should be putting teams like that away. I think we have missed a huge opportunity this year getting yo...

Re: Tri Nations: Pumas vs Wallabies
Argentina played badly, and still managed to draw. Usually in Argentina games, it's the other team you would say that about. Feels a bit harsh for them to play 4 weeks in a row, no? yet when they faced the ABs it was the ABs 5th game in a row, so swings and roundabouts I guess You mean 3 in a row? ...

Re: Tri Nations: Wallabies vs All Blacks: MATCH THREAD: Sat 7th Nov
For my liking, there are too many guys who have had little game time added to bedding in new combinations or making reacquaintances. There's also inadequate cover at 1st 5/8. theyve had 5 or 6 weeks in camp to get reacquainted. I count 3 from the starting side and 4 on the bench (cant recall if Lom...

Re: Selfish SARU destroy the Rugby Championship
South Africans are no longer men. You're all thinking it, I said it. SARU could have easily sent a young Republic-based team, relatively unaffected by any COVID issues, with at least some rugby under their belts. They could then again train against each other - supposedly the hardest, most adamanti...

Re: Bledisloe II: All Blacks vs Wallabies: MATCH THREAD: Sunday 18th Oct
This Mo’unga v Barrett debate is a waste of energy if the forwards don’t step up and get some go forward. Either one of those blokes could do the job if provided with clean ball. I mean why is it that we argue over who should be playing where in the backs when it’s the friggen guys up front that ne...

theyre counting on the Lions tour next year to make some money? will SA's covid situation be any better at that time? will they be able to have crowds in 21? so many unknowns...for all we know the Lions tour may yet not go ahead, which is looking like a real possibility.

Re: Bledisloe II: All Blacks vs Wallabies: MATCH THREAD: Sunday 18th Oct
I can't believe most people are going on about the backs.. when the forwards lost the test match. Bullied up front, this team is reminding me of the Taine Randell era... NZ need to start intimidating opponents again, not be roughed up by the likes of England and Australia... start dominating rucks ...
