I watched it , good game but if I was blue I’d be upset , jeez he’s an ordinary ref . We can all embrace the excellence when the breaks go your way .

The Wrap: Crusaders send a message to Rugby Australia to embrace excellence, not turn away from it

No

The Kiwi dilemma: To support Brendon McCullum or Black Caps?

I reckon we should go and have a talk to the Saudis

'Hamish has thrown a hand grenade' - Turinui backs RA 'tribalism' but Horan fears impact of cutting ties with NZ

My favourite all time footballers , Steve Larkham and Brett Kenny , in different codes I think they played a similar role. They ghosted through the opposition.

Anything was possible with Stephen Larkham

Both my mother in law and father in law suffer from Alzheimer , neither played any contact sport , Alzheimer doesn’t discriminate

'Uneasy logic': The opportunity lost and difficult truth being ignored in Royce Simmons’ Alzheimer’s walk

cats and pigeons hey Rhys

Did the Waratahs hide players selected for the Wallabies to avoid comparisons with non-selected Reds?

Some selfish stuff going on towards the end of the Aussie innings , they almost blew it.

Australia beat India in a final over thriller: WWC talking points

I reckon the Force are building quite a side and wouldn’t be surprised for them to win the Aussie side of the draw and give a few Kiwi sides a run.
Hurricanes / Blues game was a cracker and Roger was pretty darned good bar a couple of tackles.
The rebs are never going anywhere whilst they keep Tou’ma at 5/8 or anywhere in the side , he’s well past his use by date ( if he ever had one )

The Wrap: Brilliant Hurricanes and Blues show how private equity money should be spent

I don’t and never have believed that only 3 players new about the sandpaper affair. The fastbowlers had to know and that 3 players took the blame casts serious doubt about the wholesome image of the leadership group . Langer is better off out of their.

Cricket's generation game is ugly, but Cummins' leadership shows the way of the future

Make or break time for Thorn , we need to knock off a few Kiwi sides . Bowling over a few weak Aussie teams last year counts for nothing , it’s all about NZ and Fiji . personally I think we have the cattle.

All the questions needing answers in Round 1 of Super Rugby Pacific

So Cummings is Fraser

'They'll have to stand up': Usman says only skippers can 'end' Langer talk, Chappelli rips into ex-coach's ‘PR machine’

I was captivated from day one , an hour after tea on day four all the possibles were possible , a draw , a tie , and a win by either side .
We saw 3 centuries , batting as good as you will see under extreme pressure , and an old and new star .
The declaration allowed a test to savour and remember for all the great things that cricket can be.

DAY 5 REPORT: Honeymoon’s over for Cummins as Aussies fail to finish off Poms in thriller

Yea but the pig was slimmer

'Walk away. Weak as piss': Angry Bairstow and Stokes react to fan's 'fat' jibe at SCG

Didn’t think there was one .

'It's time': Ponting urges Root to stand down as England captain

India ? You haven’t been keeping up .

DAY 4 REPORT: Khawaja smashes second ton as Aussies move in for kill on pitiful Poms

Ussie , the coolest of cats .

FLEM’S VERDICT: Uzzy's twin ton masterclass the two best knocks of Ashes series

I dunno , long term coaches wax and wane , read the tealeaves and know their captains. AB was happy for Simpson to handle a lot of coaching and media work , Taylor not so much . Waugh did whatever he wanted no matter what Buchanan asked but Ponting made more use of him .
JL has obviously misread the room and I guess what the seniors make of him over the next little while will serve his fate.

'Give us his number': Langer trait that makes him right for England job as Aussies mull 'brave' call

Love his swinging Yorkers

Forget about Warnings, resilient Starc's career makes him an all-time great

You’ve convinced me Dan , I’m gunna buy the book .

The Liebke report card: 'More nineties than downloading Alanis Morissette off Napster'

Yeh right , blame Warner , it was always the keepers catch .

Green snub puzzles Warne, Carey makes blunder, England admit botching selections: Talking Points

A Thommo needs a Lillee at the other end , Devon had no one .

Why axing Wood spells England's Ashes end

TJ , they are gunna rest him for the 2nd , 3rd , 4th , and 5th test to ensure he’s not injured .

Why axing Wood spells England's Ashes end

I was a nonbeliever for years , I’ve changed , he probably hasn’t .

Why Michael Hooper should have been World Rugby's player of the year

If the kids can’t play we are always going to battle . I n my town we have 6 primary schools , 3 High schools ( 2 private ) and none offer union as a sport , all are league and afl . Despite this or maybe because of it we have a very strong union club with 2 teams of juniors at every age level and a blooming women/girls team.
What could we do if we had the education departments on side ( maybe supply a few coaches as do the afl)

Hi Andrew , if you haven’t figured out Ben yet you should probably give his articles a miss.

It's time to break our exhausting addiction to 'What Warnie Reckons'
