7. Last week it was Drew … who is Christchurch’s villain of the week? Beale
8. What is the final score of the game? 37-12
9. What line does the defeated coach say? Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaark (in the car on the way home)

This is out of character for me. I usually reserve my physic powers for country fairs but its time I shared them with a broader audience.
1) Yelllow cards – no, everyone will be on their best behaviour
Final score: Wallabies with a try on the bell to win 33-29.
2) First try: Muliaina
3) Tussle: started by Franks vs Faingaa (There are 4 possbile combinations, you choose which Fainnga and which Franks)
4) Half Time: 18-11 to the ABs
5) MOM: Incredibly it’ll be Mitchell
6) Ref had a good game, overall but his biggest mistake of the night was awarding an AB try that wasn’t a try. The ABs fans will complain that McCaw was unfairly treated.
7) Villian is a drunken ABs fan who runs onto the field to celebrate after Carter scores what appears to be a match winning try.
9) The boys tried hard, but we’ll take this loss because it’ll make us more focused for the RWC.
10) Oz lotto number for Tuesday ($30M) are 11, 44, 23, 8, 6 … and there 2 others which you’ll have to guess yourself. Its no fun sharing $30M with 10m people

Elsom will suggest end of the match that some calls were dubious.
Richie will get pinged off the park to appease whinging SA and Aus fans.
Australian roarers will blame the ref, the weather, the cut of the grass, the chilly temperature, the noise from the crowd and the cat that looked at the bus en route to the stadium.
It never changes it’s just rthe same old poop just another day you don’t have to be a pyschic to predict that
p.s AAC for first Try,
First stoppage in Play will be a penalty to the Wallbies for incorrect entry

Elsom needs to show some life. He is changed for the worse since coming back from Europe.

Well seeing Paddy O’Brien has stepped in and demoted an assistant ref as well as commenting that a yellow card last week had a “major impact” on the Test and then going on to say that several other yellow cards in the Tri Nations series had been ‘soft’ judgments – it’s a fairly easy call to make that the ref will be under the spotlight from the IRB assessment panel …
so the prediction appears self evident – unless there’s a major act of foul play – we’ll get 15 v 15 for 80 mins …. after the AB’s have retained the Bledisloe and won the TN on Sunday and then flowing into Monday will be a major whingefest from Wallaby fans on the AB’s cheating tactics, most likely centring on McCaw – with several referring back to the previous tests, complaining that there weren’t any cards issued and Kaplin has it in for them

You forgot about the Green and Gold’s outstanding youtube analysis where Australians will prove their intimate knowledge of the game.

Yes and there will be some equally predictable triumphalist gloater from the other side saying something like you just said.
Yes Darwin there were a few whingeing yells in 2007 about some French forward pass being missed by a World Cup ref and strangely there were a few twisted vowels in the yelling.
So referees do influence matches . If they didn’t we wouldn’t need them. And referees have gifted at least 2 Bledisloe Test victories to team from New Zealand in past three years. If it’s just luck that Richie and his boys have with referees then it has to run out one day.

If we’re setting the stakes there – great. Aussies and Boks are now allowed to whinge about the ref when they lose a World Cup knockout match by a margin of 2 points or less in a match but only if there are no penalties for the final hour awarded to the team with an overwhelming possession and territorial advantage.
So lets hear a bit less whinging when you lose by a margin of more than 2 converted tries eh?

Wallabies to lose by heaps.
Aussie Roarers spray these boards with surprised outrage because they’d somehow convinced themselves that THIS Wallaby team would beat THAT All Blacks team after last weeks performance and, what, 8 straight losses and on a ground where we’ve won, what, once in 50 years?
Calls for Robbie to be sacked, Elsom to be sacked, the whole damn lot of them to be sacked reach a crescendo around Tuesday/Wednesday next week and then slowly abate over the course of the rest of this month until we all go into the next game whereupon we will be much more optimistic because we have Cooper back.
… and repeat…

I like it Stash, so here we go..
1. Yes, two, to Pocock and McCaw (which will followed by a rain of beer cans from the terrances, Lang Park style), with Kaplan explaining to the second offender “if I pinged him, I have to ping you too.”
2. Drew Mitchell, ironically, again
3. The tussle will be between Steve Hanson and Wayne Smith, to decide who gets to feel sorry for Robbie Deans in the presser post match
4. 13-10 at halftime
5. It’s Christchurch, so McCaw, obviously..
6. Nearly. He awards an “own try” when Kurtley Beale grounds the ball in his own in-goal, but it doesn’t affect the final score. Carter misses the conversion.
7. VotW will be James O’Connor for a post-try breakdancing routine in front of the AB bench. Youth…
8. 34-24 at fulltime
9. “We always expected they were capable of that sort of performance…”
10. 6 10 13 22 29 31 and the supps 19 and 49
