Re: Force vs Crusaders Match Thread
According to rugby.com.au the Saders lost the penalty count 15-11 and the only YC was given to a Force player, so we’re not quite in Egon Seconds territory here. That won’t matter to AC.

Re: Force vs Crusaders Match Thread
AC was the type of supporter for whom the chant “you only sing when you’re winning” was invented
Another loss, another ref-whinge
If the Saders keep losing, perhaps AC will have to remember he grew up in Wellington instead?

From an Aussie perspective, will be interesting to see White, Donaldson and Beale operating as a unit.
With both White and Beale’s experience around him, let’s see what Donaldson can produce.

And no matter how much Ukraine looked increasingly to the West t...

The MAGA argument is of course, nonsense
Allowing Russia to successfully invade and therefore emboldening China to attack Taiwan and destroy the semiconductor economy is never in the USA’s interests
But Trump doesn’t care - he just wants to ‘win’.
