Kiwi's getting all their BS in nearly two weeks out from a "possible" matchup that may or may not materialize. Love the insecurity If the ABs and Boks make the final, I figure there will be a few twitchy bums in Bokland. You know the ABs can destroy the Boks if they feel like it. Certainly would be...

The qtr final win and tactics had Joe Schmidt’s fingerprints all over it. Yep, even the Irish were saying that. After saying before the game, that Joe had no way of knowing what they would do. Yup, I questioned exactly that in the match thread earlier in the week, saying my biggest hope was the Joe...

I don't mind Gardner. As long as he stays fit!
Gus is good. Happy about him rather than a NH ref. Must be saving Barnes for the final.
Peyper will get the final.

Not if the Boks are there. Besides, he's got a pinged hammy.

obelixtim

Nah. Fvck him. He should never have been appointed. He wasn't good enough, his overall record is stained with shame. He might be a nice chap but a head coach he is not. Without Schmidt and Ryan we would have been gone. In My Humble Opinion. This! How easy we forget after one good game... No way am ...

If they do, they need to be aware Fozzie will be looking for a job.

obelixtim

They might But no team focus us as much as England I also worry about your other points though Are you saying the Boks think England is the enemy and not the ABs? I always thought the ABs were the ones the Boks wanted to beat the most. No you're right but we don't hate you We genuinely hate losing ...

I have a snecky feeling the Poms might pull this one off. The Boks seem to be focussed on the final and a repeat, plus 4 titles. Plus the QF will have taken a lot out of them. Hard to lift again so soon after a classic, let alone 3 games in a row if they do make it. They might But no team focus us ...

It will be good to watch as a neutral, stress free. Winner plays England in the SF.

Yeah, well, we had to go through it yesterday.

Fozzie will be available after this WC. He knows how to win QFs.

You know it makes sense.

And that QF monkey will still be on Irelands back at RWC 2027.

There are 3 tiers of rugby being played at the moment. Top teams are tier 1...NZ, Eng, France, Canada,
USA, Oz...

This is tier 2....

Boks by 10.

Carn the SH. The ABs and Pumas showed how to deal with favourites.

Owned by the shit Richie McCaw. Thats karma.

Finally got it right. A pleasant surprise seeing them play like we know they can.

I'm ambivelant about this game. If the ABs lose, it'll put a full stop on Fozzie at least. Good luck both teams. Surely Ireland is the choice? Never being in a semi and bringing the party to France with our fans. You realise obelixtim is a Kiwi? He should be 100% rooting for NZ. The fact he's ambiv...

After NZ and Ireland knock the crap out of each other, The Pumas might be competitive in the semi. Their tails will be up, and Cheika is a cunning bugger. Wouldn't surprise me to see them make a dogfight out of the Semi.

That was good tight game today. Well done both teams.

About 12 hours from now, Fozzie will be clearing BBs breakfast dishes, closing the curtains and allowing him an extra hour lie in, and placing the "do not disturb" placard on his door handle.

11 October 2020. Don't see a thread about this. After todays shambles, one needs to be initiated because I'm sure there will be a lot of traction on this topic. Today was a sign of things to come. I don't have much expectation that he'll prove me wrong. Shit selections, no passion, no apparent game...

obelixtim

Bangles 245/9.

Craps 248/2. (41 overs)

I don't get how/why the NRR keeps going down, even though they are winning by quite big margins.

obelixtim

By selecting Christie, Fozzie is basically conceding the game.

Will go down????

He went down there in the days he coached the Chiefs. He's been down there ever since.

obelixtim

Bump for possibly/probably Fozzies last match.

And he's picked a couple for the QF who should not be there. Christie and Cane, and if either of the two props go down, the ABs might be in trouble with Williams and Newall on the bench. Hopefully Lomax lasts more than 10 minutes.

Let the music play.

So he's a liar as well as a fraud.

Retallick says that the Irish like to talk during matches. No wonder the Scots brawled with them! For this reason, Coles should probably sit this one out given his disciplinary issues.

Point of order: Heaslip didn't actually knee him in the head, Healy stuck his thigh in the way so he ended up just shoving him with his thigh. Not sure what Heaslip thought he was doing but Healy saved him from a multi-month ban. Is this Jamie Kneeslip we are talking about. Yes? Wasn't called Knees...

Amen Kahu, almost sounds like you live in a place like Hawera to make such a sensible post. ;) I do think AB's rcord under Barnes is pretty good?

There’s two outcomes that would result in the same burst of rapturous laughter for All Black fans. All Blacks win by 30 points or All Blacks lose by 30 points. Both are a possibility. And neither would surprise me. I agree. I don't see it being a close game, either way. One team will shit the bed u...

Enjoyed that game.

I was wondering if Eddie Jones gave the Portugal coach a phone call during the game.

I can see the Argies doing the business on Wales next week. I haven't been that impressed with Wales. I thought they should have lost the Fiji game. The ref saved them that game.
