Left Back Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Despite the recent howling to AB’s end the day top of the table. Can’t be as bad as the media would have us believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 They are so inconsistent at the moment, especially by their own extremely high standards. The Autumn Test is a great opportunity to beat them, while simultaneously a possible record defeat. It's mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I'd back Scotland to beat Australia again. They are definitely beatable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Caught a bit of Kenny Logan on TV this morning, he has been treated for Prostate cancer after finding out he had it almost by accident. Met Kenny when I worked for the Dept of Agriculture. Turned up at his farm to do an inspection, completed that, all very professional. Before driving away I chapped on the door again and like a complete besotted teenage fanboy asked him for his autograph!Good luck to him in his recovery. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 A pretty wild selection which made me realise I have no idea who is actually in charge. Has Franco Smith arrived? A massive pack. Tom Jordan and McDowall starting. Then a very strong bench which Duncan Weir might manage to negate all by himself unless he ups his game from last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think Smith arrives officially until October. Why start with 2 8's and a blindside, when you have 2 opensides on the bench? Why split the subs 6-2 then play a back that can only play 10? Who is Tom Jordan, and why is out Argentina international 10 not getting a game? Did Bean not leave over the summer and join and English team or was that someone else? Im not really expecting much until Smith gets a chance to work with the team 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) All Blacks retain the Bledisloe Cup after 39-37 win against Australia in Melbourne tonight. 10-10 at HT, All Blacks went 17-13 ahead after 51 mins then 31-13 after 56 mins. With 5 minutes left it was:34-34 then Australia scored from a penalty to the lead for the first time. In the last minute Bernard Foley was penalised by ref Matthieu Raynal for time wasting and NZ scored the winning try from the scrum. https://youtu.be/4_ICOqYYu84 Edited September 15, 2022 by Eednud 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwffc Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 the Australians and South Africans(can't wait for the videos) are going nuts about the ending. Forgetting that they should have had one sent off (number 19) at least one try probably two with a forward pass 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 That ending to the Aussie game was mental, but I kind of feel it's Foley everyone should be raging with. The ref told him about 4 times to kick it, even stopped the clock to tell him to kick it again, before starting it up and telling him to kick it again. By this point the Aussie backs were also screaming at him to just fucking kick it. Complete idiocy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwffc Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 the problem is that the Australian commentators were talking over the ref. He was told by the ref to take the quick as soon as he calls time on (that was only stopped to tell him to hurry up) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Here's the Swain incident, a red every day of the week, it would take a lot to persuade me that it wasn't a deliberate attempt to injure an opponent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 17min mark for the big heads gone If the ref has told him that when he blows to restart the clock, then you better be ready to kick it, then the Aussies have little to moan about. Especially when the ref has only stopped the clock because he was wasting time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 this video goes through the event well Foley a victim of his own stupidity. It's not as if he has anything to think about, his only option is to boot it into touch as far up the park as he thinks he can get. You can see his teammates are worried that the ref is going to take action and are urging him to boot it away.It's technically a correct decision, but one that should be happening much more often, especially in the closing stages of games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwffc Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 It definitely should be happening more.He would have wasted even more time if he launched it and waiting to set up the lineout 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
