The Rugby Championship - Round 4

[boere wors]

Next summers Lions tour is going to be a complete non event. Three tests won by 50 points at a canter.

Looks all like it. Will still be better than the Living with Covid 2021 tour of SA

... if we lose the Bledisloe I'll shit my spleen.

Ominously, the first game is at Wellington.

Thankfully not - Bled 1 is in Sydney on 21 Sep' and Bled 2 is in Wgtn a week later. No guarantee we won't lose both, of course.

It won't happen which is good. The thought of laughing for a week while pointing at the Cantabs isn't that appealing.

Hope you're right, mate. Expectations have been lowered so much in recent times I'm not taking anything for granted.

Most of the times pre Covid, we use to start with the Wallabies , lost and then play the All Blacks the next weekend. Lost both and never came back to challenge the All Blacks on the log. This year it's different. Winning like losing seems to become a habit.

[OomStruisbaai]

As a neutral there is no way the Wallabies is even close to the All Blacks. I am sure any CC Premier division team will give them a go.

Regardless of their current woes, I reckon they're still capable of beating us. Dingo Joe knows the ABs inside out, and the wily old bugger masterminded Ireland's first ever wins over us. And if we go down in Sydney, I fully expect the Cake Tin Curse to do the rest.

Just realised we've got another Pommy ref first up. Yikes!

We were at a braai for the cricket side at Milnerton high to discuss an upcoming tournament. Damian De Allende popped in at the school.

Did he told them there is only one team he will play when returning?

WP rugby is a touchy subject right now.
You don't go there at social events

You are wrong again.

There is only one team I will come back to and that is in Cape Town,” he told Sunday newspaper Rapport.

No I do understand....but noone wants to talk about WP rugby atm.

The 2 games against Argentina is going to be a bit nervy now that Rassie decided to send 1 squad to Argentina and play another in the SA test. The make up of the 2 squads will be very interesting. Though you can put together 2 pretty decent squads, so several younger players might get a chance again.

I think it's a big risk. But Rassie is confident so let's see how it plays out

Who the vok knows which Argentina side is going to turn up. Based on their recent form, I could see them winning at home and then we hump them at Nelspruit.

Bit harsh. That's like the 79th minute of an absolute hiding.

It'll all be ok, apparently they'll be competitive next year

Not quite sure where that confidence comes from.

Last 10 minutes they shipped 3 unanswered tries, probably because they were strolling around in defence.

And 'run across' is the kind of quality coaching you get from drunk divorced Dads turning up to watch their son play for the first time in a year.

That was a poor effort.

It's a try conceded because of a disastrous defensive read, not the fact that an exhausted forward the other side of the field wasn't sprinting across just in case a break was made.
