Who is this f-cking commentator seriously? You can't hit people in the face with your elbow or forearm and it makes absolutely no difference at all whether it's "intentional" or not. Hitting people in the head is against the laws, period. Whether it was "accidental" or not is irrelevant. FFS happen...

I'm so disappointed in Beauden's hair.

What is it about Auckland hairdressers?

Sonny Blount

fudge those Wallabies can't tackle

Sonny Blount

That was a very quick 10 minutes for Jordie?

Sonny Blount

Two cop-outs. That Barrett call was more of a red than the Aussie one. I think they got them both right. Two yellows seems fair and proportional for each offence. Either of them could have been red if the referee was in a bad mood. Those posters saying the Barret incident was not a card are in laa-...

That was a try for 30 years of my rugby watching.

It's not even a penalty

You can't elbow someone in the face, whether it's "intentional" or not. That is just dumb commentary.

He didn't.

Absurd card

Caleb Clarke is being well over-hyped in the pre game

I would have to amend mine to Reiko Ioane.

Throwing away a victory in a Bledisloe Cup match will be forever up there with Richard Loe's elbow as the most heinous act in an AB match.

I'm not sure how Sexton made the final 3. How did McCaw? He’s not close to the best All Black of the decade, though he might give ‘best NZ openside’ a shake. And I say he’s the best player of all time. McCaw played 59 tests as captain in the 2010-19 decade -more than any other player has captained ...

Tie between John Mitchell and Mark Hammett.

DC was the best tackler of the lot. Most consistent, most dominant physically. He often led the defence for the ABs in a period when the 10/12 channel was the main path for the offense. Statistically he achieved some outrageous things. Such as going 2 years without having a try scored against them i...

Carter for the arm wrestle. DC is a better defender and carrier in traffic than Jonny.

Sonny Blount

I'm very happy with Du'Plessis Kirifi making the All Blacks, I think he has the right style of game for them.

Any pissed off Lachlan Boshier fans?

That was a bad bomb of a move by Mo'unga

I don't think there is anyone who doesn't know the effects of colonialization or thinks it is something that should be done again. There are more real and egregious examples of bigotry impacting individual peoples lives. Agreed, I would be amazed if there were many people who did not know about sla...

Interesting that 1 week after a draw, that panel can't see the ABs winning by less than 2 scores. I mean, I don't think the Wallabies will win, but that is why you get accusations of arrogance. It's interesting that after 17 years of losing, and one draw in a first up game, the Wallabies think they...

Jee...sus. https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2020-54532189 The election day is 3 weeks away. Poll stations are not going to as well staffed and widely open now as they should be on election day. If there is a queue then you can come on a different day or to a different poll station, based on how...

It's too late to be creating a new culture built around a core philosophy with selections to match. Still have to play Jordie, Rieko and Richie even though they will always make mistakes. Foster just has to try to stumble blindly along the path he has chosen. Anyone not starting ALB in the majority...

JA had Hoskings eating out of her hand this morning by all accounts. Crucial to turn up in studio for an interview like that rather than phoning it in on a bad line, and being late, like Collins did last week. Collins was in Auckland but couldn't be bothered going to the ZB studio. You'd have you t...

If Trump loses the election it's pretty clear fox will turn on him as well as the GOP. People who worked for his administration will be lining up to put the knife in. There is bound to be a film about the 26 different women who accused him of assaulting them. No doubt there will be scenes where he ...

Another Patriot Rally goer shot and killed today. Apparently by a TV crew security guard. Only problem is, apparently, the Denver Dept. of Excise and Licences doesn't seem to have him down as a registered security guard. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/oct/11/man-shot-dead-in-denver-during...

Indeed. What is President Biden doing? What America has he shaped after 4 years in power?

I don’t understand what you are saying sorry.

Sonny Blount

Isn't Will Jordon a bit of a flake defensively? He is a fullback, so I would hope not. Sevu Reece, and last weekend, Rieko Ioane both have gaps in their all round games. And in the modern era there is a tendency to give a new player some time to come down after their debut, so Caleb Clarke I think ...

My preferred team for next week: 1. Joe Moody 2. Dane Coles 3. Ofa Tu'ungafasi 4. Patrick Tuipolotu 5. Sam Whitelock 6. Shannon Frizell 7. Sam Cane 8. Ardie Savea 9. Aaron Smith 10.

Thoroughly enjoyed it (got disturbed half way through so had to watch the second half on delay). Whenever I see teams give it the All Blacks in the first 20, my initial thought is that they won't be able to do this for the full 80...but the Wallabies did it. Was very impressed with their newcomers,...

Won’t blame the ref. He was poor but it went both ways. And we shouldn’t have let him have a chance to decide anyway. It was some poor kicking decisions, terrible set piece that cost us. Spot on. Ref was poor in parts, thought the game was a little too quick for him. Maybe out of his depth? Having ...

Like So'oialo in 2006 at Rustenburg, this game is going to stick with Reiko Ioane for a long time. Blew a defensive read for a try and threw the ball away over the line.

Its tough for a 10 to see much good ball when DMac is playing.
