Halfway through Season 3 of The Diplomat. A big let down so far. It has all the appearance of a show that they didn't expect to get a 3rd Season from, so they didn't put enough plot in the first 2 to support one. They've had to crowbar in a totally new direction and have lost 50% of the charm by si...

A win is a win. We do not have the depth to lose too many first choice players. I wonder what the casualty list is now.

Plus they will cover the RL ashes tests at stoopid o'clock but not the NH games involving the Wallabies.

They are not a charity.

No problems getting motivated for this one. Just the sight of Eddie Eyebrows in the coaching box would do the trick.

Lakrham is the best non goal kicking 10 i can think of. Im sure there were others? He had a pretty good drop kick.

We all hope Wright comes right soon. A smokie for the 15 shirt is James Hendren. Too soon, but he will definitely be in the frame by the time 2027 rolls around.

Office space and retail stores must be the worst possible investment.

Joe Schmidt thinks he’s a better 8. Apparently so much so he named him captain.

You must know more than Joe Schmidt.

Horses for courses, I guess. We need them both, who cares which one is "better"?

It used to be said that there is no such thing as too much rugby. Now there definitely is too much.

Distinct lack of ecosystem in the capital, embarrassing stuff.

We record the rugby, maintain radio silence, then watch it at a convenient time. We have STAN, but will use Foxtel because STAN doesn't work properly in our building, for some unknown reason.

Meanwhile, back in 2025......

The Waratahs did a job on a the Reds. Remember the name James Hendren. He could be anything.

If Trump refuses to ever leave the White House would it bother you? What's the plan? Embalm him?

We will never know. Apart from anything else, imagine the heartbreak that her kids are going through. Their mum is a convicted murderer, and the victims were their grandparents.

Bugger me, how will they be able to live a normal life?

Tupou and ~Robertson were absolutely rank. Tupou has to stop with his no-look passes. Hasn't worked for 3 years for him. He is too fat to be a prop, let alone a fly-half. He doesn't carry well, can't tackle and had a single dominant scrum. What is the point of him? Tupou played well, he carried abo...

Lynagh failed another HIA yesterday. That’s 4 for the year. That should be him this year. No need to risk your health. Shades of Berrick Barnes, altho’ I’m not sure he had so many serious head knocks in such a short period. I would assume that the technology used to diagnose a head knock is a lot m...

Marky Mark is tearing it up in Loig. We will not see him back any time soon. Good luck to him :thumbup: Unless big money is offered either at home of overseas. Or, unlikely tho’ it is, Rooters win the premier this year or next. Should that happen, been there done that might kick in. There was an ar...

fudge me As an SA fan Was weird to see the Aussies as an easy win, not believing what a pitiful team they seemed to have become after the lions tour just come out and prison style ( Alis phrase ) royally fudge the springboks.

The archetypal Melbourne questions: "Which team do you support, and which school did you go to?"

That's a big forward pack. I wonder if the players coming in are fitter than the ones that played last weekend. I'm expecting a slow game with lots and lots of high balls. I'm not expecting a win, certainly didn't last weekend. I just want consistency and I'd be livid if the Wallabies capitulate. I...

Crazy game out there tonight. Our boys literally out of it against the rampant Boks.

But our biggest turnaround in many many years.

I am pretty sure it would be the biggest. Against the World Champions at altitude!
