Much has been made in Europe of the so-called closing of the gap between the northern and southern hemisphere rugby teams – but there's…
As a NZer living in Sydney, I favour this country over NZ. However, while dead-set a Crusader and All Black supporter, it concerns me that NSW rugby, in particular, has got it wrong for so long. Think back to the 1980s. I’m dismayed the NSW Union made a $3m profit when all the top school boys stars are being creamed off by NRL and AFL talent scouts, with no competition by rugby scouts, thus undermining the future of rugby in NSW. Hence, rugby, especially in NSW, is beaten up by the governance of it’s own administrators. I despair, there is no upside ahead.
I would rather watch an All Blacks trial
Favourites? Johnny Hotop, Pat Vincent, Bob Scott and Ron Jarden. Uneatable combination because no-one out there was alive when they played!
My five favourite All Blacks of all time
Cheika’s comment: Ít’s us and them’ applies to ALL Wallaby supporters and commentators. It says ”every-one else is wrong but us!

Pity Ben O’Keeffe. After refereeing the 2nd test he will then be subjected to a four-hour + Springbok video criticising his decisions and communication skills IF the Lions win again! If that is not undue pressure to be lenient in favour of the Boks, then I’m not a person of sane mind. What a goose this chappie is!
