Rebs player slides into MacLeod with his knees as MacLeod scores a try. No penalty for this filthy play. Is this how you play the "blame the ref for everything" game? That actually was really late - he should be pinged for that… I agreed with your earlier comment about Ennor sneaking in one extra r...

Scrum was excellent

Lineout throwing was wonky as hell.

He has soft hands?

To be fair, he was an exceptional RL player and only a good Rugby player. Sums it up exactly. And I don't think he's failed, a failure is someone who doesn't try something, he tried rugby and was good, but as you say not really exceptional. He'll always be a dual international. That's pretty cool. ...

Sorry to have to cancel the planned get togethers with some of you. My sister has died and we are heading home - will reschedule the rest of our tour after winter and hopefully catch up then. Also hoping I will have a Super Rugby title under the belt to crow about of course. Condolences, old friend.

You'd gradually break down?

The ball had a hard time staying in my hands, not helpful when you are a lock and lineout target.

I missed all this due to being mainly over there these days but join the other posters in wishing you all the best and heaps of time with your grandkids. Spoiling and being spoilt by grandkids is great medicine for basically any ailments.

Or Scott Gibbs at 12? Mike Gibson has to be in the team so if the Fat Prop is at 12, Gibson moves in to 10. But I would keep him at 12 cause I want Barry John in the team. Gibson plays but he was not a 10. In fact just play the '71 Lions backs. Roberts/BOD combo for '09 Lions was amazing though Whi...

Just checking that we all know that Stacey Fluhler and Stacey Waaka are the same person? That’s a bit of a first for me watching rugby. A player switching back to their maiden name!

Still some ways off but I came across the Canterbury schedule for NPC 2023 and am overjoyed to see that the Red & Blacks will be playing Waikato in Hamilton on 30 September, which fits perfectly with my first trip home in six years.
