From what I have read on these pages most people seem to believe the World Rugby rankings system is a waste of time. Perhaps…
Thursday night's Bledisloe game was a ball tearer. OK, 76 points were scored, suggesting the defence wasn’t so staunch, and nine tries were scored,…
7-8
The Wrap: Why SANZAAR must hold Frank Lomani accountable for 'going back for his hat'
I thought Wright was ok, especially the two 22 clearances he made that went 15-20 meters past halfway

Not sure which Gordon you refer to, as neither Melbourne and the RAtahs played this weekend

I’ll never forget when I was living in Fiji and some Fijian geeza, about 50ish, came to work one day with Mickey Mouse ears on.

I visited my brother many years ago, had to sit thru a whole game of league, needless to say I time my visits better these days
Let's celebrate rugby for its differences: Why imitating league is not the answer
Yes, the article says he has the experience to blah blah blah. At 27 he really only has the experience of a 23/24 year old, and one that was thrown in with the men when he was a boy. He went well before, but no one knows what he’ll be like if he lasts the season out. Good luck to him though,
Wallabies star set to make timely return against Crusaders in must-win clash for Force
pommy pommy pommy
CONFIRMED: Wallabies land final piece of coaching puzzle as ex-Lion signs on ahead of showpiece event
I believe that’s closer to the truth of the matter, Nick. There’s enough forced changes, so stability in positional play anywhere across the park can only be beneficial
Super Rugby teams week 9: Beale back for first time in 1494 days, Reds make 6 changes, Wallaby returns for Brumbies
Reds Highlanders – the battle of this years woulda coulda shoulda teams

Oh that’s disgusting, I can see nightmares haunting me for weeks

I thought Uru to 6 Blyth to 4 was the way to go, now with this news, it might be best to keep Wright at 6, a position he has been forced to bulk up for (tho maybe it was just normal growth) so maybe this Bryant you speak of could get a run.
Just had a quick squizz at the team over the season so far 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9 have been the same starters every game, as well as Flook at 13. That’s almost half the team being a constant! This week we get new selections at 4, 7, 9 & 13. We weren’t able to get consistency with that consistency, so maybe needed change is being forced on Kiss…. but I don’t think McReight and Flook are that needed change.
At least there shouldn’t be any soft c ck co-captaincy palaver going on. And I believe that “team culture” should strip the captaincy of McDermott for the remainder of the season. Enough of the committees already.
Reds cop another blow with Wallabies hopefuls to miss Highlanders clash
How good is rugby
Enough of realistic expectations, let's get excited about future Wallabies
Interested to see if todays teams have Harrison starting and Eggmed on the bench for the RAtahs

Law 8.8d Conversion: (The kicker) takes the kick within 90 seconds (playing time) from the time the try was awarded, blah blah blah….
Law 9.7d: A player must not waste time. Sanction Free Kick
“within 90 seconds” means that the player is limited to 90 secs, but he is not given all that time and can’t just stand there twiddling, that would be wasting time, that’s when he gets the hurry up.
The only player this rule affects is Emiliano Boffelli who used to take an inordinate amount of time to kick the ball.

Maloney stumbled a bit with Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens on the weekend

'Not ideal': Reds star duo cop Super Rugby bans after red cards - but where's the consistency?

Louis Werchon, played well in the preseason games, not seen since
Five things: Lesson Aussie rugby can learn from Kiwis - and why next month will determine whether SR gap has closed
Interesting. Does the law “provide” the kicker with 90 seconds, or does it limit him to 90 seconds…. Now I’ve got to go find the law book

Disagree strongly, the fend on McDermott was straight onto his collar and he never released it, no elbow anywhere. I still can’t see what got Mighty Mouse riled.

Aussie teams are stretched at the moment, they are basically state teams. Kiwi teams are, in general, a step above. If it’s more teams you want, get rid of the amalgamation of NZ provincial teams in Super teams and have the NPC provinces play the Aus states. NZers don’t want that. How about p ss off SR, forget the February games in the heat, and put the 5 Aus teams, Moana and Drua into the second division of NPC and allow the better teams to eventually be promoted to first division. Run the NPC in direct opposition to League and ping pong. A full season of home and away plus finals. Easy

Too true re ZH, and now it looks like Flook might have fooked his shoulder again. Gunna be a hard game next week, quite a few missing from when we beat the Chiefs, depth will be tested. Any truth in the JOC rumour?

CRU-REB this is another game the rebels must win if anyone is going to take them as serious semi contenders.
WAR-CHI can only see this going one way
FIJ-MOA the loser may find it hard to get in the 8, Moana up against it in Fiji
BRU-HUR better hope last week was an aberration for the brumbies, hurricanes are just going so well
HIG-FOR highlanders need this for a finals birth, force looking at a spoon again
RED-BLU if we can’t beat the blues at home there’s no chance of beating a kiwi side in an away quarter
Super Rugby teams round 10: Marky Mark replaces Pietsch, Rebels' LSL blow, Flook boost for Reds, Alaalatoa to start
