The All Blacks could pick a front row of 3 Liam Coltman 2 Cody Taylor 1 Dane Coles and still destroy the Kangaroos in the scrum and have a super mobile pack.

Save the real men (props) for the real games.

you won't get anything better than that podcast. I remember hearing one story of Brad Thorn (very young and still establishing himself) and John Plath waiting outside Broncos CEO John Ribot's office. Ribot called Plath in first and said "Plathy, we want you to play Super League. Here's a check for $...

How the hell don’t Chins and Dagless get a mention. My favourite period was the night shift around 2005.. Noddy, Volts, RC, AntRobertson and the Asian Cabalists. And Waratah deserves a mention. the boredies were good fun. Ahh Good times Noddy and AntRobinson were the same person. And both he and Vo...

Give yourself an uppercut. We all know how it affects Foxtel, but this still doesnt change the fact that Optus had a shit offer that was exclusively a streaming srrvice that would have killed rugby as a TV product in Australia. No argument from me, dickhead. I don't want Optus getting the rights. I...

Fair play to the Force not telling them to get farked :lol: why would they? Who else were they going to play? You’ve got this arse about. Who else could RA call on to make some sort of comp happen? Ironic isn’t it, how the wheel turns full circle sometimes. RA need the Force now. Like, really need ...

Incredible how the media have focussed entirely on Pusey while ignoring "Swerved for a Witch" Mohinder ! Why no media coverage on all the highly suss details there ? Does Pusey being an utter scumbag lessen the culpability of the truck driver ? it'll come. I've heard from a mate who knows people in...

The Force won't be able to compete. They are an above average NRC team.

I was going to say Justin Harrison who's biggest claim to fame was his test debut v the Lions. Match winning. Think he lived off that for years and never ever lived up to that level again. But did have a long rugby career. What about Dom MacQuire? Came from to debut for the Wallabies v the British L...

Xavier Garbajosa at fullback from 99. Soft as. Matt Rogers also at fullback, and conceivably Wendell Sailor too in 03. But Rogers' pop gun kicking gave England the crucial territory to get Jonny in a position to do what Jonny does. Al Baxter for getting minced by Andy Sheridan in 07?? Pat McCabe for...

Morgan will go down as the guy who left rugby and became a laughing stock. Whoever suggested he play league had rocks in their head. The dude was a lumbering second row. He didn't have the engine to play in the forwards in league. his old man was a very good leaguie. Manly, NSW and Australia. So th...

Wasn't he the bloke who tried to marry Toni Collette for a visa? are you confusing the movie Muriels Wedding with real life??? Was Garrick Morgan in the Wallabies in 91? Morgan was rated the best lock in the world in 94, by French media at least. A wondeful player and a big loss. Scott Gourley woul...

It would seem QLD Govt Departments are very close to imposing quarantine / work from home directives. No word on duration. Original plans were for Mid-April to the end of May. But now it's going to be brought forward dramatically.

Right, there's a Press Conf at 4am by WR.

Australians picked so far:

15 Beale
14 AAC
13 Kerevi
12 Toomua
11 Folau

The top 20 must half Australian forwards.

none are anything close to an all-time world xv and I question the credentials of these rugby fantatics.

But 2 is the best team there in my eyes.
