So who is the ABs #7? Mr Soak Tackle?

Yep, and Pone will return to the Rebels (he looked OK I thought).

Yet another pointless comment from a thoroughly pointless cvnt.

Wright's defense is no better than Kelleways. Both still hit harder than Papali'i That's quite a petulant response Zakar. I don't think any of the options are as bad as defenders as you guys make out. Certainly no worse than the current t starters in NZ. That's probably true. I was gutted to see Za...

The Spit Junction to Taronga catchment can’t support 9 teams

Kind of like the Brumbies, in that respect…

OK Sluggy

Lot of young people living in Cremorne/Neutral Bay/Crowy.

LOL, Savers! God bless ‘em How are Mozman going? Marlins won, thanks for asking. Fourth on the ladder I've not been following closely, but pretty sure they're second on the table with a game in hand. Haven't been smashing out the premierships, but they have been constantly turning out 6 grades plus...

Why are you so argumentative?

Was just a statement mate, sorry it triggered you. How'd the Marlins go on the weekend?
I’ve moved onto subbies now…

Savers? Or does ICMS still have a team?

Zakar

Lolesio is a dick and plays like a house cat. A house cat that kicks 90% Good teams will run over him all game. You saw the game against the Blues, right? He's actually middle of the pack for our 10s when it comes to missed tackle percentage. I know that doesn't tell the whole story though. Toole a...

shanky wrote: ↑Sun May 12, 2024 11:19 am I believe Wright has that ‘x factor’, he also has drag-car acceleration, but is flaky

If you’re Schmidt, you don’t ask him to shoulder the burden of fullback.
You play him on the wing and pick a solid defender and good boot at 15

None of our 15 options are amazing defenders.

Zakar

Go on... Just think it would be worth a watch. Does anyone really gain an advantage from a knock on? It's already hit the ground. Most knockons are pissy minor errors from the base of a ruck, that don't impact anything. Couple of problems: - incentivizes people to disrupt passing and clean play. Ga...

Zakar

Wouldn’t the kiwi u20 players also be full-time? I don't think they'd be on enough not to have another job, if you're not in a main super squad you wont make thay much playing in NZ. I don't think they're as involved with the senior pro sides as some of the French clubs are set up. I think I've con...

He’s a speed bump that doesn’t standout at SR level. Donaldson kicked very well last night fwiw; however the pressure was off so there’s that. Sure, but Dunno is 70% through the season, and 69% across his career. One game means shit. Lolesio is a dick and plays like a house cat. A house cat that ki...

Zakar

Dunno played well last night. Showed some good wheels, he is an option at 15 too, just a pity he's kicking as poorly as Carter Gordon. With Noah kicking at 89%, I would give him the first shot.

By the time they get to U20, they're already out of the Union system and into NRL systems. Go back to U16 and everyone is playing both codes Is this really true for most rugby kids in NSW and QLD? I don't think this is the case in other states, I guess simply because League is non existent. No not ...

Can't wait for this rule change. Couple of free kicks given from scrums over the weekend. They go like this 1. Ref blows shortarm. Explains decision to remonstrating props 2. Penalised teams backs up ten 3. Non penalised team has a little conference 4. They call for a new scrum. Teams come together ...

It's a tough cry wank The important thing is it's still a wank. I'm not barring up over the Crusaders demise like you are but I am pleased my Blues team are playing well and it is refreshing to have a three way contest between the NZ Blues, Hurricanes and Chiefs at the top of the table instead of t...

Kind of harsh judging Kelleway in that circumstance.

Only one iirc

Huge win for the Force

Beeeeeutiful pass from KB.

That's the bonus point.

I had no idea Jerremy Williams was that fast.

Tahs continue the festival of mediocrity

Holloway was our best

BoK is a terrific ref

Holloway was an 8 to start his career he's made a good fist at lock/6, good to see him play well in his old position.

Tahs forwards have actually been pretty decent TBF to them. If Reilly wasn't wearing oven mitts, they'd be up.

Nothing will ever happen at central. A slab over the tracks will be $3bn min, then you need to go up, and work out the traffic. Similar problem to the Gabba and Olympic Games. Sydney needs to learn to leave the car at home. Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth manage it Brisbane as well with lang park. Th...
