Shields ? tried to monster DMac and.... missed by a mile.

Good try

I surrender

Gee that was frustrating. We were playing catch-up rugby, while leading by a good margin.

Not sure what our first five was doing but kick the f**king thing when it's raining like that

So, after all that success, you’re reduced to blaming the ref Sad state of affairs. How are the mighty fallen Living off caviar for years, now offering $5 blow jobs in a Darlo alleyway Are you blind as well as stupid. I never blamed proud former Waratahs player Nick Berry for the loss. I simply sug...

the gift that is Ruby Tui gives equally to both sides.

The weather is much the same here so they can pretend that they are at home (like the Canes fans will be)

Where's this ref from - not sure what she is seeing but I (and the commentators) cannot see the offences.

If she wasn't good looking I'd be calling for her replacement.

The myth of being left while young and right when you're older is largely just that, a myth.

I have certainly swung the other way. As a banker(sp) I was a righty but when I got out of that and grew a heart, I started caring for all, not just the bosses.

Who won? The Aussies. Every Aussie poster has assembled to celebrate like a deprived dog given a bowl of food for the first time in months, like the Irish used to do before they actually became consistently good. This thread would be 2 pages if the Crusaders won it is pages of grizzled Aussie battl...

OB.. would be around 90 but he has stopped visiting us (and also stopped being the secretary of Cheltanham RFC last year). From what I can find, he's still around. Who is OB? Ovalball? No. OB..

That's the worst Red Card I've seen in a looooooooong time.
They really lost the plot in that second half, didn’t they

They both got sucked in by off-the-ball cheating from the Rebs.

Lomani - 6 weeks, reduced from 10 for pleading guilty, remorse, clean record etc. Same number that they gave Dirty Swine. Not enough for Lomani either.

They supposedly got sick on the Thursday and yet only mentioned it after the final?

That's not true. The illnesses were widely reported in NZ on the Saturday evening (NZ time) about 8 hours before the game.

Must be time for a Haka.

Worst time to be leading.

I hope it freaking hurt - lots.

Saturday weather

Showers, some heavy, easing in the evening. Northerlies, turning to fresh southerlies for a time in the afternoon and evening.

I think the winning of the game will be in the final 10-15.

So do I but our poor fitness displays of late do not fill me with hope

Even when that belief is indirectly the cause of this whole shite?

Haniyeh's eldest son confirmed in a Facebook post that his three brothers were killed.

Being in my 20s in the 70s was a hell of a lot more fun than being in my 70s in the 20s.

Piss poor try Sakar - and you lost any chance of scoring.

We are having a 12.5 hour eclipse at the moment, just like kh in Thailand.

I studied that quite a lot, Tehui. Lost 2 brothers to workplace injuries and got quite into Health and Safety about 25 years ago.

Turns out it really is a con in all but the most dire of cases. It's about punishment, not prevention in this country.

Chiefs will be in the game for 60 minutes - then their lack of fitness (or guts) will show through.

Predicting a 15+ win to the Canes

Very concerned about the fitness levels amongst the Manawa side. They are gassed by the 60 minute mark in every game this season.

No head contact - shoulder to sternum but looking at that, there was no attempt to wrap.

Still, penalty only and we took the try instead.

It would be more effective to limit the number of subs no?Drop it by 1 or 2? I don't see it as WR's place to dictate the makeup of the sub bench, as stated above there are pros & cons and should be left to the coaching team to decide. Four subs.. Front row and utility player on the bench. And/or in...

Maybe in SA la-la land rugby

Read the laws
You read the fvcking laws.

Players must not: Intentionally collapse a maul or jump on top of it. Attempt to drag an opponent out of a maul. Sanction: Penalty.

Rarely adjudicated though so I can understand the confusion.
