As an aside, it's criminal how difficult it is to find player stats for rugby. Compare it to American sports, Football or Cricket and its appalling. That data is held by the union or comps, but bogarted for some reason. Well, line-out win % is a pretty solid one for our purposes I think. Could have...

During SRAU his lineout stats were the best. Someone dig them up please. I cannot find them. None of our hookers are good at lineout throwing but he was the best of a bad bunch. I must admit, I haven't looked at any stats, I'm just going on gut feel. It seems that every time the pressure was on he ...

Any world-beating team is going to be winning the vast ...

I bet you didn't think the internet was going to have a massive impact I bet you derided those that said it was going to change everything. I bet you didn't want rugby to go pro.

Rennie has called two players into his squad at Sanctuary Cove as injury cover. Brumbies hooker Connal McInerney will cover for fellow fresh face Feleti Kaitu’u and Irae Simone has replaced Izaia Perese, who suffered a subluxation of his shoulder in the Waratahs’ final match of the season. https://...

Meh. I'm not going to cry either way. I don't think any of them are real stand-outs except maybe Phillip, but I haven't seen him play for a while. In an ideal world we should be choosing between Arnold, Rodda, Skelton and Phillip. LSL has looked very good against the kiwi teams. Rodda doesn’t offer...

Surely Timani will not start and most likely will not be near the 23? Hes OK but has not, and never will, set the world on fire. Maybe off the bench if Rennie does not want to play one of the young blokes. No idea why Hosea and Rodda are not in this squad. I'd start Timani and Phillip. My biggest p...

Well, Swinton is off the hook. And he's in the squad. I said I'd have a laugh at the howls of protest if he got selected and I will, because all this was moderately obvious. At least a good possibility. Because Swinton is a gun, he's versatile and with a proven ability to step up big time and he's a...

You guys are so predictable.

I said I'd have a good laugh at the disbelieving shouty response if he happened to get off what was in reality a very harsh red, and got selected, which he was almost certainly going to be.

You keep saying doping is cheap and easy and the testing doesn’t work. As if an Olympic gold medalist is under the same scrutiny as a B-grade rugby player or the guy down the gym. We keep pointing out that to compete at the highest level, and get away with doping, is actually very, very expensive. ...

I love how alien nutters think this "no radar contact" is some kind of mystery and evidence of advanced technology. It's evidence of either that or that there's nothing there. Apply Occam's Razor.

Armstrong had to reel in his intake as the testing got better. He’s actually a poster boy for “sooner or later, they’ll catch up with you.” You’re kinda showing with this post that you don’t understand high level sports doping, but want to complain about it anyway. That's hilarious. You don't budge...

The Pentagon are issuing classified briefings on UAPs. No, nothing interesting at all about this. So why not post some of the interesting stuff? There is no one on the planet that won’t be interested in learning about aliens. Don't be moronic, it's interesting because the briefings are actually hap...

There's a nuclear-arms-type race going on between athletes and doping agencies and there's hundreds of millions of dollars being spent on both sides. All to prevent one or two bad apples?

Bro. You think Triathlon athletes are not on shit? I suspect they'd be about as clean as the average Tour de France cyclist. I know a few Pro Triathletes as the pool of athletes is fairly small and I would be very surprised if those specific individuals were on anything. I'm not saying in any way t...

Yes there is FFS! Again your entire argument is based on the situation 20 years ago. You are posting this in a topic where the USAs current biggest distance runner was just popped in a year that actually had fewer tests done due to the COVID global pandemic.

So i think two things can be true at the same time 1. The majority of Olympians are PED free; and 2. Some sports have close to 100% at the peak level. Why can both be true? There's no intrinsic reason that both can't be true. They're just not. If you look at the breakdown, the sus sports are a smal...

It is not about that. You have freely admitted in this thread that what we are watching is a freakshow anyway (Kiwi rowing athletes aside of course).

Testing for drugs is dumb. Let them have at it. I have heard this argument but I don't like it.
