Swarley Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Looks like the All Blacks will retain the Bledisloe Cup. 24-0 ahead with bit over 20 minutes to go.An unsurprising humping. I was shocked to see the fall out from last week's game, especially from the NZ media. One defeat in about 100 years and suddenly the sky was falling down. All back yo normal now though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Oh well better say goodbye to a decent game of rugby and say hello to the Nigel Owens showI would rather have Owens than anyone else, still probably the best and fairest refs around, even if we were playing Wales I'd probably still take him over most other refs. Although this probably has more to do with my dislike for most of the current refs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although this probably has more to do with my dislike for most of the current refsI do agree he’s the best of a very bad bunch of current top level officials, but by god he doesn’t half grate on me with his carry on and constant attempts to take all the limelight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Liam Williams pulling out late today with a tight hamstring, James Davies just off with concussion. Wales are dropping like flies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Italy beat Russia 85-15. I don't think we need to worry too much about the 4 day turnaround. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Owens clearly telling the two 9s that if he says use, they need to use it. Tells France 3 times, gives a penalty against Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your constant "Nobody else does this" whining is wrong.Bollocks, against top teams away we are weak, we struggle to control the game. I don't see top 8 teams do this as much as we do. I counted 4 missed tackles, 2 lost line outs and 2 scrum penalties in first 15 mins. That's enough to kill a team and blow them out the game. Exception maybe of flaky Oz, I don't see Ireland, Wales and England doing this as regularly as we do. Just being realistic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Nae Finn, ,nae Scotland. The pack has been piss poor. Games like this prove the value of Ryan Wilson (or possibly Matt Fagerson) rather than a traditional 8 like Strauss. Barclay has struggled and McGuigan is a waste of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
