I hope he gets pinged for the maximum time, and if he doesn't, shag steps in and pings him himself.

Mr Mike

So if Franks is out who is the next bus off the stop?

Mr Mike

Investigation is progressing and audio has been recovered from the bug.

:lol: The neutrals have spoken. Even Fitzy was honest enough to admit NZ got some lucky breaks with regard to decisions in the half time break. Even Fitzy of the Home Counties?

That's a premeditated feel around the general eye area - should be gone for 6 - 8 weeks, certainly would be in the NH. That was an attempt to take Coleman's head off, yes, but not a gouge. Lots of face contact. Yes, and if the Citing Commissioner follows the NH lead he should be gone regardless, fo...

Would be surprised if it was that long, more like the 9 weeks the Argie lock got in the RWC.

Jesus, seriously? you guys won, won well, and you are in the trenches punching as hard as you can about something the coach yelled desperately trying to prove that he muttered it at the ref. :blush: Ah, it all gets discussed. To balance that, we're also discussing Franks' hand to the face. Don't fo...

I suspect you are right, SANZAAR have a record of being more lenient than NH unions on contact to the face.

Try to keep the swearing and ref abuse to a minimum.

Mr Mike

jdog, please point out the Australian fan whinging? Cheika is a deflecting, whinging plum certainly but I can't see much of anything from the Aussie PR contingent. Agree, their coach is a bit of a goose, but the fans haven't gone anywhere near that level. Yeah. Perhaps someone should be checking in...

I think a lot of the vitriol comes down to the fact that she's a woman. So why doesn't Theresa May attract similar vitriol? Different country mate. Good point, Palin suffered a similar fate.

You should be right, but there have been some quirky decisions about contact to the eye area.

"f**k cheating plum!" Starting to understand some of the issues with this Australian coaching team, they actually genuinely believe that refs are biased cheats on the take. :? http://imgur.com/uaxRmDl That's what I called Naki on. That's what you are trying to argue, siding with BBB no less Cheika ...

I haven't read back through the thread but at the line out before the first AB try there was an incident between Franks and one of the Oz second rows that I thought might result in a citing. The Aussie was doing a decent legal job of disrupting the AB maul and a few guys were grappling with him whe...

Kearnsy was a joke tonight. He whinged after every play. Each and every play. I get that sometimes you feel that your team is sawn off. But surely as a professional commentator you can reel that in. Once in a while. Just awful. Give it up, Kearns. Even Wallabies supporters must have found that pain...

Mr Mike

Not sure how much the subbing is being done just to keep Cruden match sharp. He is currently surplus with Barrett just bossing it at the moment. Sopoaga on the bench has the same limiting factor though as well. If Barrett stays our long term replacement for Carter, and he's showing all signs that h...

Folau is better than Ben Smith. Otherwise every single Australian is worse than their opposite number. Technically Folau is better than Dagg. Wasn't Smith playing fullback tonight? Might be wrong, but seems to me his best Test rugby has come on the wing. Thought Quade wasn't too bad tonight all thi...

Far better defense from the Aussies, forcing errors consistently. Pardon the non-sequitur, just asking because I've seen this at least three times in this thread already; does New Zealand use American English? Not generally, it's a function of working for a US company and using a device with US aut...

Mr Mike

Suddenly looking far more likely.

Mr Mike

Australia by 8. Good man, I'm sure it will be a genuine test. Even Richie is hoping the Aussies step up, this from the Guardian: “I hope that it is a bit closer, because you don’t want to see big one-sided results for the top teams. I don’t think that’s healthy for southern hemisphere rugby, or for...

From a purist's perspective it was one of the best things about McCaw's long and incredible career, seeing him matched up against so many fine opensides. Who did the majority of his 15 losses come against Naki? I'm assuming Brossouw would have have the best statistical record? yes, Brussow is the o...
