Two teams having to rely on emotion to perform. Pumas look flat and NZ responding like they did after SA.

Looking good mind you. That front row is a thing of beauty.

Any ozzies around that could give a better description of his strengths and weaknesses?

What's an elite 10 in your opinion?

He's not as good as advertised in the scrum, missing on defense and can't carry for shit.
Ok I'll take a SH opinion as I won't have watched him as much. I'll have Koch instead but start Atonio
Koch is much better than Malherbe IMO.

I'm just glad you didn't say Tupou

Why are you all so bothered what Props look like? Is this a bodybuilding forum... I want to win all my mythical scrums and am happy if their 130+kgs of tight defence and short carrying.

Is Owen Farrell the Jordie Barrett of English rugby? Must admit I've never seen the point of him away from his kicking and no arms high tackles... The best of him is in a saracens shirt. Unfortunately Eddie's been obsessed with the double 10 approach. It hasn't helped that we are constantly waiting...

Why were they allowed to do this? Security have encouraged this. Their probably 5 feet tall, out of shape, on minimum wage and don't want the trouble. Probably being recorded too.

Not only is he a better passer than Farrell he scores alot more tries than him 16 international ones v Farrells 10. Even at 37 he still more a threat ball in hand than farrell :blush: How many times does Sexton play out of position? What is farrells position you would have to say it is 12 now inter...

Nah Sexton is far better at running a backline and better range of passing hence for Lions he is 10, if I needed someone between the 2 to kick a peno to save my life it would be Farrell. Sexton's range of passing is the circle pass to the left and the circle pass to the right. Not only is he a bett...

I could definitely get behind capital punishment. It's bad enough funding women's sports let alone keeping all these rapists, murderers, paedos, terrorists etc.

Was having a chat with our Treasury business manager who is a massive Quins fan and a rugby fan. We were talking about the good players that Quins lost last year and Tizzard's name came up and we thought there's no way Saracens can afford that many good players without cooking the book. Also it's p...

An abomination of a team. Almost every position wrong But as a team where are the weaknesses?

'Dimes' coming out on Twitter like Chemical Ali, saying there's no issue and wages will be paid soon enough thanks to the efforts of the owners.

I'm not a zealot on this. just happy to see equality of opportunity increasing We are in agreement there. I just think it should be as well as not at the expense of men's sport.

The coaches who coach the Arsenal junior sides generally aren't qualified coaches. They are still doing their coaching badges. For example, Jack Wilshere is head coach of Arsenal U18s. The head coach of Arsenal Women has been coaching since 2006. He posted the same earlier. Your talking to zealots ...

Women's football in England has been fully professional for 12 years. Presumably, the 14 year old boys haven't been playing academy football since the u3s. Clearly not, my guess would be that the boys coaches have more experience and better facilities than the womens teams with far more established...

:roll: You said 14 year old outlier, I said FloJo outlier. It's not rocket science. The point is that the outliers are the top standard and all other categories start there. So, again, elite 14/15 year old boys are comparable, physically, to elite adult women. And as has been pointed out to you the...

pandion

You think FloJo wasn't an outlier? 3rd place in the all time women's records is 0.10s slower than the u15 record. The point is that elite athletic boys by 14/15 are at worst equal to top women athletes. Physically yes. I think you could reasonably expect adult athletes to be further ahead tacticall...

But many female MMA stars are attractions, at one point Ronda Rousey was the biggest attraction in UFC. She still headlines 2 of the top 10 all buy rates in UFC.
