Re: Irish demand for the haka to be banned!

He's not wrong in the round. Taking aside the cultural trappings, it is essentially a cracking warm-up, while the oppo stand there and are forced into a cool-down just prior to kickoff. My opinion has always been that the opposition should be allowed to do whatever the hell they like during the Hak...

Re: Rob Howley gooooneeeee.

Couple of bets he did...according to my sources. Rhys Webb would not make the squad and Wales first score would be from a certain play. Sry...just seen the post above. Would either of these break laws in the 'real world'? If he was involved in squad selection then I think it's conspiracy to defraud...

Has to be England. They have the two most capable challengers in France and Argentina whereas the other pools show a bit of distance after the likely top two.

This warm up game can erase those memories of savage 6N failure and help the historical ledger (a tiny bit). Nah, I still think Wales should expect to win. A...
