And this… 😱

The Wrap: Crusaders' shot clock fiasco and shhh, don’t put the moz on Darby

Morning G… and thanks for that lengthy wrap. It really hit the spot. Satisfying.

Now.. I’m off for a cigarette! 😊

The Wrap: 'Take them to a dark place' - A quiet round grabs eyeballs for all the wrong reasons

I think the withdrawals of Bell, Shed and a Gamble… had a big influence on the Tahs ability to get on the front foot 👍

The Wrap: Good news and bad news for Rugby Australia as Brumbies and Rebels win local derbies

Morning G… and thanks for this Wrap. Also, thanks for bringing our attention to outside contributing factors that were in play only days before the derby between the Tahs hosting the Rebels.

Mine you the game was a hard watch… but the off field action is like witnessing a train wreck. Or similarly like watching a car speeding along the water’s edge of a beach, losing control, then fipping into the air, doing several spirals, and finally ejecting the driver feet first only for them to land right way up… thus somewhat in shock hurriedly walking up off the beach like nothing had happened!?! 😱

But ALL who were witness… knows there’s been a car wreck. A very much avoidable car wreck. 😂

Thanks Harry… thought provoking read.

Hey, in the photo of new Coach Joe, can you see me above his right shoulder waving from a distant balcony? 👍 😂

Joe Schmidt's search for a 'cold-hearted bastard' - and the issue he'll lose most sleep over

Thanks JD… enjoyed the read. 😊

And your point… 😂 😂

John Hart’s glorious Athletic Park heroes, how Australia had the last laugh, and could Ireland suffer the same fate?

😂 😔

The Wrap: The two massive power shifts shaping Australian and New Zealand rugby

Thanks Hamilton G… noice wrap-up obviously sourced from old newspaper clippings 👍 😛

My Tahs… oh my Tahs!?!

Frankly I blame Harry… and his Eds thingy earlier in the week. Mind you the Highlanders’ #9 wouldn’t agree… 😊

The Wrap: The two massive power shifts shaping Australian and New Zealand rugby

Thanks Harry… interesting read on these three Tah amigos. Three that very much impressed in their epic defeat of those Sader types on the w’end.

I’ve always had a soft spot for all three of these guys… mainly because they’ve got high rugby IQ. The issue been confidence, cohesion and health in body and spirit. Keep it up lads… and who knows what the upside might be.

But more important than all this is the depth/ competition starting to appear across the park for Wallaby stocks. And we know how important player depth is at Test level. So, if Coach Joe can weave his magic… I’m seeing a competitive upside for da Wallaby. Mind you, a much much needed upside.

Left of centre… and in naming names not Ed… old maaate Greason needs to get his Gleeson back. What a shocker he had with his hands on the w’end 😱

Jed, Ned and Tane Edmed: The direction Joe Schmidt should head to put Eddie era to bed

Thanks Harry… merry read.
Watched the game with Yorkshire in attendance and apart from the first 20 mins things went somewhat downhill in mood… and language after that 😛
Your guy had a cracker, eh?
‘The way of saying ‘first’ in Scotland is a shy combo of ‘thirsty’ and a violent ‘fist’.
One of you best!

England conquered, Irish in their sights and 'the only holes Ireland have are exactly where Scottish swords fit'

Who wrote that intro… ‘protect their self esteem…’ Wtf? Like, ewes wish.. 😂

Regardless, good luck to all tipsters.. this first w’end is gonna be tough. Telling. Talked about. 😱

Super Rugby tipping panel week 1: Brumbies to sweep Rebels, cliffhanger brewing between Tahs and Reds

Thanks Harry… that’s some jazz you’ve got going on in there! 😊
.
Really looking forward to this edition of the 6Ns… and what a first round game to kick it into gear. Bit similar to a certain recent RWC first round game eh?! 👍 😊 🏉

'The putative heir or the actual king': Ireland and France think they're the world's best - the Six Nations opener could settle it

… gourmet tomato sauce sachets, ffs! 😂

The Wrap: Unity, integrity and the other casualties of shameful leaks aimed at the Rebels

It’s that sorta information that surely gives rise to useless information about lack of disinformation… in a booth no doubt!? 😛

The Wrap: Unity, integrity and the other casualties of shameful leaks aimed at the Rebels

Morning G… and welcome back for another season. Although, judging from the content of your article not a good start to the season?! 😔

Not sure as to why RA plays these games… surely there’s enough rugby (on the field) to be played. And improved upon. So the machinations of faceless RA players leaking this and that for their own ends to shock-jock journo types could be a hang-over from Hamish’s ham-fisted days? But… did someone say KFC?

The Wrap: Unity, integrity and the other casualties of shameful leaks aimed at the Rebels

Pffft… she’ll be right maaate 😛

Exclusive: Wallabies star to return to Waratahs in fresh blow to Rebels

… and stay injury free! 👍 😊 🏉

Back atcha old man… 👍 😊

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

Hadn’t thought to go all the way back to Jimmy Cook… reckon he was our first Captain eh? 😛

But regardless of who to blame or what to blame… blame we must! It’s the Aussie way. Running here, there and everywhere but never wanting to take the blame… 😔

And he (Jimmy) might never been Captain of the Wallaby…

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

I am a Human Being. A sensitive Human Being. And I do blame… well.

Gotta blame. Gotta be someone’s fault. And in this case it was the French my friend. In fact, all those french conspiring b@$t@rds are to blame. And I also blame Castle… yeah!

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

The ones who struggle to spell ‘deloseanall’… 😂

Nobody Goes For Pints with Joe: 'Cult-like figure' with an 'exhausting' style who might just restore pride to a rabble

Thanks Harry… ripper read. Insightful. And, for this little rooster, loaded with positivity.

‘I love to have a beer with Duncan
I love to have a beer with Dunc
We drink in moderation
And we never ever ever get rollin’ drunk

… ’cause Duncan’s me (new) mate, yeah.’ 👍 😊 🏉

Shyte show v Schmidt show.. already ahead of expectations.

'Not a hit and run': Schmidt explains short-term deal and why he 'surprised' himself by taking Wallabies job

Boom… tish!

An entirely appropriate… all thingys currently considered.

Exclusive: Wallabies to turn to Kiwi Schmidt as Eddie Jones' replacement

One previous recent annoying ridiculous self serving shyte show has now morphed into a Schmidt show…
and I’m somewhat satisfied by that.

My hope now it’s just regular like… minus da trots. Follow throughs. And unsightly skid marks. 👍 😊
