Yeah Beaudan was pretty average again today... and the less said about his goalkicking the better... he can't be close to the All Blacks in this form... even at fullback...

Christie has lots of energy but is just too slow at clearing the ball to be a consistent All Black...

Credit where credit ...

BB isn’t too bad when he breaks the line. The problem is he rarely breaks the line these days.

Doubly so. Dead cert for ABs at RWC

Christie is having a great match

Why is that plonker still goalkicking? Dalton tell Zarn to kick

This must be the longest 10min yellow card in history

Good to see they aren't ignoring high tackles like the last match earlier... and penalty advantage only being 20m... I like it... :thumbup:

It’s the inconsistency between refs which gets my goat

I wonder if there is any law for how long or far advantage is applied? Other refs come back ...

BB shouldn’t be goalkicking at all. He’s absolutely shockingly bad

First time I’ve seen a ref calling advantage over after 20m multi-phase

Game of the round coming up. I demand a statement win from Te Bleus. I also demand peace in the Middle East and Putin’s arrest,

I bought rugby boots off her mum once. Her dad is a big unit though so I minded my manners around said commentator

Headlines about Dmac outplaying BB and making a claim for the ABs 10 jersey. Half the country is still under the razzle dazzle spell... and this pic tells a story,

The retirement age in NZ is 65. There’s a simmering on-again off-again debate about lifting it higher.

In Australia it is 70 (universal pension) and 65-70 (means-tested)

It’s hilarious that the French are whingeing about lifting it to 64.

PR has gone down again so I find myself back here

Yeah I'm sure that's the reason.

I’m sure too.

Oom congratulations on your team beating Wales. Mighty start to the season

Haven’t been on here in over two years. Good to see Guy Smiley here! I thought you’d retired from the online life.

By the way, whoever up there who brought up the approval rating, Jacinda the Great was still the most popular PM in preferred PM polls all the way to the end. Luxon is a corporate ...

The Australians have started up a spite thread vs Scotland at the other place but there were no Scots on it. Only found out on that thread that all the Scots were over here.

Anyway, England are going to put 109pts on Tonga.

I thought this forum had died. First time I’ve posted here since last year.

Cracker of a match. Fakatava is a beast

Those Maradona fans don't muck around. I thought Matera was half native indian or something? I guess not. Quite racist comments and brings dishonour to his team and the sport of rugby in Argentina.

80-0 to Wallabies

Well justified criticism in the past on workrate, fitness, and discipline, including a rare public shaming from Hansen.

However, he was magnificent last night. Controlled physicality that was missing from the All black Bankwest downtrou 2 weeks ago, giving the team crucial go-forward. He even ...

And now I've found that Foxtel is showing it yippee!

Oops I see I'm 2hrs early

Anyone have a link to the final pls? Thx

That's Todd Blackadder level
I've just opened all the windows in the house to remove the smell of that old bait.

Great game from Mo'unga last night. I bagged him in Bled 1 so its only fair to give credit when he plays well.

Yes they were up against a schoolboy backline but BB and Mounga combined very well.

Ah, I see what you mean.

Agree - cannot please then all

Conversely I'm really really happy with the result of this election. Not that Labour "won" but because of what it demonstrated about the strength of the swing vote in NZ. Somebody did something right, they got rewarded, a miss-step or ...

Ardern thanked those who wouldn't normally vote Labour and we were a prime example.

Though, to be fair I've voted for Labour more often than National.

Pretty amazing result. Kind of like Texas turning blue?
