As much as I like to troll, it wasn't Razor's fault that the Saffers were "encouraged out" of Super Rugby. We are now playing easy rugby and the result is very very apparent on the test paddock. No sense getting upset, the Age of ABs is over. We haven't won an U20 title since 2017. It's the base of...

Nisbo made comment how petty that was. Game is already struggling to find flow. Shows how out of touch this ref is.

Not uncommon that teams find some steel a man down and it was only for 20 mins.

Henderson worries me. He’s played fantastically against us for Ireland and Lions.

Crap coverage
Crap audio
Crap stoppages
Crap ref - can’t understand him coupled with crap audio
Crap cards

Bored already. Might find something else to do this morning.

Where’s Earl “the 20 min red will see class players targeted” the Beaver?

The red will highlight the hypocrisy of Irish fans crying over the years at any hint of foul play. Where’s Camroc?

Just ridiculous. Barrett literally runs into him. It's a dynamic movement and Beirne has absolutely no time to react. One remembers the Irish tears all those years ago when Cane braced for the collision with a pirouetting Henshaw. So in that vein Beirne is a dirty SOB and it was fully intentional.

And a chemtrail loon. Get her off the air, ffs.

Interesting that two of the three test matches in SA are scheduled for JoBurg, with Pretoria and Durban missing out. Just saw that. Surely they should've put one of the tests at Loftus Versfeld Not sure they’d be keen, even with the advantage of altitude… https://i.ibb.co/W41yTQ2n/IMG-7588.jpg

Matt Cameron’s high school Kiss tribute band famously received a cease and desist from Kiss management in the 70s.

“Officially” lifted by original Kiss management via this letter last year.

Thoroughly disliked by many of my peers who seem oblivious to how many musicians they love were influenced by Kiss

Here’s Melvins covering Goin’ Blind which they recorded on their 1993 album Houdini.

Jake got some webrooster to give it a boot.

How was it fixed last time? I deleted about 4000 threads. But, as CM11 said, it didn't work long term. Anyone seen Jake? I have messaged him to give it a reboot. Drastic, I know, but it works one time in a hundred I meassaged Jake last week. He too was on holiday. He said he'd forward it on. I have...

They really are a breath of fresh air. They can get a whooping at their spiritual home Ellis Park copping 38 points but move on like it ain't no thing and wallop NZ at home for their heaviest defeat ever. They chop and change their squad at will and seem to maintain a harmonious camp. Rugby seems li...

So clunky

Sometimes it works. But mostly it's performed by big fatties with poor ball handling skills and they're not accurate enough passes.

Magpie26 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 04, 2025 11:36 am WTF the ref clearly calls advantage over....and then gives the scrum to Oz

He said he called advantage over incorrectly. I don’t mind him going back. No advantage to Australia with an AB lineout on their 22 as they’d taken the ball back on before their touchfinder.

Skelton off for a breather having been penalised once and carrying for bugger all metres.

Is there a book we can send DD on Haka, something to expand his world view. He's been posting an awful lot about them of late.

I dont understand what people are on about. Once every 4 years? WTF. Tours.... So if Australia tour Argentina next year say.... Those games are going to be on at what 6am maybe?

Fantastic second half from the Boks. Best team going by far. Absolute masterclass from SFM, such a gifted player.

Pretty sure a whole heap of you have already watched rugby together back in the days when cabals were all the rage on here. Good fun. Everyone is normal in real life. Even the permabanned ones :o Cabals still happen - just not as often as before I watched the Lions Vs Reds with L.Ron this year How’...

Watched a replay despite not wanting to. Wallabies their own worse enemy. JOC gets that kick and the Wallabies score, they could have won the game. Thought the refereeing was abysmal but not surprised by that. Piardi is just useless and Jonker hates Australia. I screamed a few times at the tellie b...

Man that memorial is weird. Didn't see a single black face in the footage I saw. And they're all acting as if he was Jesus. I would not want to be a minority in that place. Had a distinct reek of the 1930s about it. He's dead. Move on for chrissakes. That's rich coming from you who starts an entire...

An absolute character. Well loved over this way.

This Charlie Kirk Memorial is something else. Not unexprected of course. But the crazy is really ramping up.

Canada accepted the challenge, thats exactly what it is about. Piss poor attempt at a wind up. Can't you come up with something better? I love the Haka but what is this accept the challenge bollox. They accepted the challenge by showing up to the play the match. That said, keep the Haka. They're ho...

Is the HAKA even more utterly ridiculous when, after you’ve done it, you’re then totally crap at rugby? Why are you such a whinny little bitch about the Haka? Did it frighten you as a child or something? Do you need a hug? They even do the Haka at Tommy Robinson events these days. That’s the deplor...

Yeah, it’s incredibly cringey when it’s done at a Marae, or at a tangi/funeral for someone

How many of our PI players do you think are from NZ v from the Islands? Will be hard to tell. I just googled Wallace Sititi because of the unfamiliar Nz surname which in most SA languages means little womens breast' and Source Wiki says Born Apia Samoa. Recent RWCs have featured the massive number ...

I think a reasonable point is that sooner or later New Zealand are going to have to consider doing the haka as a victory dance after the match because it's becoming a little bit awkward doing it first and then getting paddled. I wish John Eales doco on the Haka was widely available. Very educational.
