HANDSOMECAKE

Really poor performance by the ABs :( No control of the game, far too many stupid penalties which was the most disappointing for me, too many poor kicks and just not enough enthusiasm. Reece was trying too hard (sort of understandable), BB just didn't control the game, losing Ofa meant we basically...

lack of security of tenure in my industry (Aviation) and outrageous house prices have reinforced my intention to not have any. The line between being comfortable and destitute is razor thin these days.

i love the juxtaposition of certain people saying to respect the muslim faith while only a few months ago their ilk were shitting all over Israel Folau for his beliefs.

Its never about what's being said, its always about who is saying it and how many of them there are.

HANDSOMECAKE

Chiefs totally disorganized on attack. Not only that their passing was among the worst I've ever seen from a professional side. Hardly once did I see pass someone could run onto. McKenzie sadly looks a spent force after his knee injury. He's not quite Milner Skudder slow, but whereas last year you ...

Perenara always struck me as a complete an utter knobend, A sunshine boy . A young fella who needed to pull his trousers up and stop listening to snoop doggy dogg. However............. He has completely won me over (about 3 years ago) , He's the consummate pro, always in shape . Body on the line , w...

Cannon of a right peg from Barrett.

It will leave Ian Foster dripping like a gravel truck at a set of traffic lights.

Still maintain Jordie should have kicked in the third lions test.

Super rugby in empty stadia ................ We know what it will look like and feel like atmospherically anyway. South African teams have been doing it for years

HANDSOMECAKE

Whitelock shoving Farrell in the face and getting a penalty reversed killed off any NZ comeback in that SF match and thus the Allblacks chances at a threepeat.

He gavrilo pricip'd his own team and provided me with this juicy bait for Ali's Choice.

Was sorely missed against England as I alluded to in the match thread at the time. Sets the tone early doors with massive hits and may have softened many English coughs and stopped them getting their dander up in the first 15 minutes. His performance against wales the week after showed he was clearl...

Joubert pinging Mccaw for the game winning penalty in super rugby final that Warathas won .Foley kicked it to win. Crusaders were heroic that year and out on their feet. I was disgusted. Joubert got it horribly wrong as there was no tackle and Mccaw had all the rights. the ball carrier just fell ov...

2nd and 3rd Lions tests were a masterclass in French ref skullduggery. Sean O Brien sparks naholo out concussed in a maul - no sanction. Naholo out for the remainder of the series Billy V forearm smashes a prone Beauden Barrett 3 yards outside a ruck as he tries to get up- yellow (should have been r...

HANDSOMECAKE

Can’t think of anything as blatantly bad as referee George Clancy illegally goading his TMO Johan Meuwesen to rule on an All Black forward pass (which wasn’t allowed at the time) v the Springboks at Port Elizabeth in 2011. I dread to imagine the uproar if it was a Springbok try that was disallowed ...

Anyone know where I can find the Christian Cullen documentary that was on tv last year?

There was a bledisloe in the mid 2000s in Australia ( Brisbane I think) where the wallabies won but Dan Carter was absolutely incredible. Can anyone remember the game. id like to rewatch.

HANDSOMECAKE

what gets me is the attendance....... rugby is gone to the doldrums. it meant something then. It means fudge all now. For me as a 36 year old the peak was 1995-2005ish . It went to shite afterwards.

Player drain and over exposure don't help.

Andrew Doyle ( the brains behind the character) is great .

The difference between Bledisloe 1 and 2 and then the subsequent Ireland loss to NZ, NZ loss to Eng and then Eng's loss to SA.

Has the gap narrowed to the extent that its just a matter of who's up for it more emotionally on the day now ?

Barrett wasnt that bad at 6 and it was not the issue as much as all forwards not turning up, a lineout that shat the bed, tactics that were just off and an opposition who wanted it more. Much much more. I look at the lineout we had 4 jumpers vs 2 and yet we didnt put any pressure on the front of th...

Cane stopped everyone in their tracks against Ireland . I think he was a big loss. Maybe first try doesn’t happen , maybe scoreboard pressure doesn’t happen etc they didn’t score any tries with cane on the pitch in semi final ..... his stock definitely rose by not being selected .
