(almost stole the entire Bledisloe if we're honest). Hopeful, yes. Fanciful, possibly. Honest? No. :roll: wtf Do you think that's an honest summation of the series last year? Erm ... yes. WTF are you on about? It was only a try in the dying minutes of game two that prevented it going 2-1 to the Wal...

Never mind the ABs, let's focus on winning against Scotland consistently.

Yellow: Farva. Not Yellow: Peyper, Barnes, Cheika, Hanson. He went past the horizontal but there were mitigating factors. The sensible decision was made. It was a welcome change to the usual handing out of cards like candy. I think it's hard to argue that technically it wasn't a yellow. Just most p...

I just think it's such a shame - and giant leap backwards - that amoungst the secular population, the supposedly, "cool and hip and progressive" modus operandi in 2018, in the most educated and enlightened nations in human history, is not scientific honestly and rational thinking and rejection of re...

And you're right, it is about the administration and the coaching and the entire environment and atmosphere in Australia rugby. The fact that the players can dig deep and pull out the odd win on the back of pure guts and grit is admirable, but they're doing that with all the odds stacked against th...

There's a pretty fundamental concept in modern Western society getting lost in this, and that is that a person does not have a right to the body of another. If someone does not want to be touched, it's indecent to impose yourself upon them. Whether the reason is religious, cultural or bigotry it's ...

I don't really have it in me to get excited about this any more. I'll watch it and hope it's mildly entertaining for at least a bit. Finally caught up to the rest of Australia regarding our rugby side and thats not a good thing... :(( That first half the other night was encouraging... but they ran ...

Good man CI. I'm sure the kiwis will accept that with grace and humility.

Kearns is only “laddish” when his teams are winning. Incredibly sour when they’re not (and frequently just plain wrong. He dialled it up to 11 in the Irish series. There are a few commentators like that, Tony Johnstone in NZ for one. They get too close to it all. Whatever it was, it was miles bette...

Mog The Almighty

If you follow Kearns then you know he's taking the piss. He's a legend of the game and he loves the game and respects it especially NZ. Same as Cheika. Wait, that goes for everyone in rugby. NZ is the Brazil of soccer or West Indies of old in cricket. We hate you when we play but in tge end we're p...

Mog The Almighty

that's a very harsh assessment mate that only leads me to conclude that in fact you haven't live in Australia long enough to get the laddish appeal of anything at all. I know what he's trying to do... well, I think I do. See, the thing is I have mates here in WA who love their rugby. They grew up h...

I believe the Aus Schoolboys are touring this year for the first time since 2012. A very positive step as the Schoolboys don't play enough matches as a team to build continuity to. Helps with building a future under 20s side as the players know each other. The practical reality is that, unless you’...

Yeah, Aussie fans are done a huge disservice by Kearns. He's a festering arsehole and it's long past time they got rid. this and a thousand times that. I think maybe non-Australians just don't get him or don't know him that well. He's the prototypical rugby lad, and always with a big smile, laughin...

I watched that clip ... wait ... "ageism" ... what the fvcking fvck is that? What have the yanks invented now? Are they daring to suggest that a 71 year old Arnold Shwazenegger and a 61 year old Linda Hamilton are no longer in their youthful prime? FFS, do we have to discard every shred of rational ...

Kiwis mistake Aussies. Most Aussies adore the ABs, ok some hate them but the majority respect them. Just like Aussies who loved the West Indies of old. I know a few Aussies who still remain West Indies supporters even after these years. Most Aussies loved McCaw, in fact when I lived in Melbourne mo...

The Blues 96-97 were basically considered unbeatable. I remember the Brumbies and Queensland beating them in '96. The Wallabies were in a rut then but the two Super 12 squads had the belief to beat the best team in the comp and the Blues were that by a distance. Those players formed the backbone of...

Mog The Almighty

Put it this way: if a Wallaby player made a tackle like that and avoided a yellow card, to be honest I'd be surprised. But I'd also think it was a "common sense" decision and support the decision. Zero malicious intent, zero danger. Penalty out of respect for the lawbook, fair enough, and I'm glad i...

No doubt the other refs in the RC will be taking Jaco's lead with regards to tackles. Check the reaction of the AB bench in the background. :lol: https://i.imgur.com/cu9cX2C.gif That was a YC all day unless WR have directed otherwise Peyper saw Folau leap into the air to try and make it worse than ...

Rubbish. He lifted over the horizontal. Hong Kong, who will defend a ref betond the rational, called a yellow. You are defending the indefensible. I don't entirely agree.

Re: Folau's dodgy left leg in the clip. Surely the instinctive reaction of the left leg is to try and balance by staying upright as far as possible? Therefore the left leg should be trying to stay down as much as possible. His left leg shoots up into the air as if it has a rope attached to it pulle...

How the fudge is the Irish rugby thread at the top of the page discussing the Wallabies vs the All Blacks?

Join in the international scene you xenophobic f-cks.

Well I'm glad that there was f all controversy. So Lumpy on the bench next week? Jordie in? Bender to 14? There's a few lads making a big deal out of nothing. Even if a few of those 50/50 calls went our way, we would have lost. Next week is a different thing though. Last year The Wallabies proved t...

Isn't the problem that you're really reliant on a couple of guys like Hooper to remain competitive at international level? From the ARU perspective the potential losses must be a lot higher than his wages. I think it's a lot more complicated than that. The problem is that we shouldn't even need to ...

Fair enough Mog I’m just a bit over it. They’ll not get a penny more from me though. I’ll stick to local footy as much as possible.

I'm in a bar full of ockers and they're all claiming the Wallabies only lost because their best talent are in AFL and NRL. Chin up MOG the scoreline isnt reflective of the teams abilities at all. I'm sure you guys will beat us at least once this season. That's one of the worst arguments ever. Tell ...

As an All Blacks fan it has been great but as a rugby fan this is damaging the game, someone else better win the World Cup. That's an admirably humble response. However, I do think that the best team deserves to win. Nobody wants to see the best team lose on the night due to <whatever>. I wouldn't ...
