I think those tits Sexton and O'Mahoney just said it 12 times to each other, and Eben overheard.

Carys Dallinger, technically the incumbent 10 for Australia, has been straight dropped. Doesn’t even make the development side. Must’ve paid the price for a poor season for QLD - just one win. there were rumours of dallinger playing in the rugby league comp so I dont know if thats why she been left...

Yep, Bunting’s selections are all over the place. Project players and old returning heads but dropping other old heads. They must’ve pencilled in Maia Joseph and Hannah King since FPC because they’re clearly not the top-3 in the country. Kahlia Awa outperformed Joseph in Aupiki by a country mile yet...

These polls keep coming up on my newsfeed. Polls schmolls, it’s the trend that’s more important. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2024/04/jenna-lynch-analysis-second-poll-confirms-labour-could-take-back-power-newshub-understands.html Another poll , somethings definitely up .

Black Ferns Pac-4 squad announced https://i.imgur.com/Kh7ZisU.jpeg Clearly a development team with project players all over the show. Still, I really don’t understand the halfback selections. Why does Maia Joseph from the last-placed Matatu get the jump ahead of Kahlia Awa who has been touted as the...

I saw the analysis they did on The Breakdown and I do agree he has an element of risk in his technique. The tackle vs NSW is perfectly fine mind you but his other tackles in previous matches (which I hadn’t seen) while fine in those matches will get him in trouble in future if he’s just a little bit...

Canada 50-7 USA - FT

Hopefully will get the full match online at some point. Terrible start for Fukofuka the new US coach

Auckman

oh well I'm off to work but Canada are 10-0 up last I looked. RugbypassTV doesn't seem to be working either.

Super W Final yesterday NSW Waratah Women 50-14 Fijiana Drua Really enjoyed how NSW have played this year. Playing the full width of the field and giving the ball plenty of air. Maya Stewart, Georgina Friedrichs standouts in a backline that was humming. This kind of quick phase ball playing the full...

Great to see Caleb Clarke in the best form of his career. Let's hope it continues into the playoffs.

WXV3:
1. Netherlands
2. Spain
3. Hong Kong
4. Kenya
5. Fiji
6. Samoa?

Both Fiji and Samoa will qualify from the Oceania tournament. Tonga could spring a surprise (if the coach can round up some good FPC players) but they were well outclassed last year, getting hammered by both Fiji & Samoa.

I did wonder where our favourite Belarussian had got to these days. A book should be written about this guy

Auckman

Just saw the match. Quite an entertaining match and thought it was a far better match than last week’s Ireland demolition because there was an actual contest in this test match. It could’ve been a lot closer if the French hadn’t repeatedly shit themselves in the foot with their mistakes, some of it ...

Can’t believe he’s still around but he’s getting better with age!

Yes Forbes was poor tonight. Plummet’s boot returned to its historical inaccuracy as well. Funaki was one of the Blues’ best.

Auckman

I realise the Reece has been the best player for the Crusaders creating a lot of the attack and scoring tries but he's also blown a bunch of tries. I wouldn't pick him as a first choice wing at 14. I'd probably go for Narawa or Stephenson at 14. I probably wouldn't include either of Tele'a or Reece...

Indeed.

Would’ve been fully deserved if they had got over the line in that slugfest.

What a match. Absolute trench warfare at those rucks.

I expect to see that Ryan fella in the Wallabies later this year.

Auckman

Caleb Clarke you bloody beauty!!

Auckman

Beautiful

About time Eklund does something useful.

That try was made by Clarke whose penchant for not throwing 50/50s or any pass at all saved that movement

Auckman

Jesus h Christ they can’t handle that Ryan fella down the left flank

Auckman

Bit of an arm wrestle. Both teams up for it but both teams also squandering possession

Hodgman still giving away penalties after all these years

Nice grunt work from the forwards

Drua just too clinical when it counted. Turnover kings at the ruck as well.

Drua 24-5 MP - that Drua try has sealed the match methinks l. MP had their chances but fluffed them

And as I type that, MP score (Havili-Talatui off a lineout move)
