At least we have something to talk about gate

'Incredible' Hoops backed to do better than Boks legend who 'failed abysmally' in sevens switch

yes it is NH, but feel free to ask Wallabies who have been there if you want. Your pitches are not as close to stands as SA, and there are alot of words and sentences when changed from Afrikaans to English that can be way scarier to hear … and just fyi I am also referring to what Aussies told me of their experiences so …

'Curse the money all you want' but RA must work out what it wants from Super Rugby - otherwise the game is doomed

drunk and unpleasant are not the words I would describe expreinces in Bulls land during a game … before and after different but during no, your comment highlights what you actually dont know vs what you do know …..

He is actually really gifted – or was when he was younger – and outside of some bad choices and a really bad injury could have been a long term wallaby instead of a short term one. The wing made bad choice in his approach there and Shep is right, a few old school techniques might wake the crap up with these younger generations

'What the hell's going on': Ex-Wallabies question 'losing' culture, pathways at Waratahs

Yeh I do, Ive had Aussie clients go to Loftus for Tests against the Boks and I said to them as a group not to wear their Au jerseys to the game and stand out coz I knew they were going to lose that game, tehy came back blown away at the type of intensity they got given before during and after the game and still commenting about aall types of behaviour Im a bit ashamed to say happens there – although it can happen to locals to who support Stormers etc – they even wear their Stormers shirts udner the Bulls shirt and pull it off if Stormers def look like winning – so yeh sorry, 50 000 angry Saffas will take the cake there sorry.

thats the point though right – agree though

Rugby News: Tahs' next goal after 'big emotional weight' lifted, AB legend's career call, Crusader off to Saracens

or imagine if more NH players came south to get the experience of what we provide overall thats different to our guys.
If WR got the damn world season sorted and opened up borders a bit better and got rid of all this Eng and Fra club control over their games/organisation then maybe it would be more spread – I gaurentee you there woul dbe Saffas knocking on NZ doors to get the exposure and experience. I would imagine there would be Welsh and Scottish guys going to SA for a warmer lifestyle thats still close to home etc etc ….

Now now Jacko, if you rememebr it was you Aussies and Kiwis that threw us Saffas with no warning or help at all with Covid coz SA as a whole was in total lockdown and no players could go anywhere at all to play. Its a 2 way street when it comes to fault throwing and I would never have beleived not being in SR could be a good thing but the last 3 years has certainly changed my tune and most Saffas too… sorry mate… respect !!

very good idea !!!

'Curse the money all you want' but RA must work out what it wants from Super Rugby - otherwise the game is doomed

As a Stormer I dont LOVE it but I do enjoy the fact SA getting over them … although last weekend was surely a huge benefit to Leinster I dont believe it will cross over to Ire … in fact I think they could get shell shcoked coz what they see as passioante at Loftus or CT or Durban etc for the URC home teams will go up a million fold with the Boks playing them and this current Ire team doesnt have enough players left over since 2016 to understand that intensity say like Ardie or James Slipper etc etc can give their new guys heads up

Id love to see Aussies and Kiwis in the URC!!! Esp in SA sides for the benefot of growth potential to take back to W camps coz they are allowed to lay ouside Au rather than be help captive in an inuslar market/tournament

I llike this guy, especially since he is telling Aussies like it is about SR being diluted compared to before and Test level is a bigger step up!!

How Schmidt landed All Blacks icon at Wallabies - and why '80 per cent of coaching is selection'

I know! Im watching with bared breath and hoping our front row issues dont bite in teh arse, poor old Brock, should be awesome vibe and awesome game, hopefully hte boys bring their better stuff

'It can be something great': Schmidt turns to 'scrum doctor' as next step in Wallabies rebuild

CS – I think the rep is changing for them slowly, atm they have some way to go and Aussies proved that with Fra not too long ago all things considred in the differences. Id like to see Au back, Rassie still rates Au and is nervous about them. But more to the point is the SnC stuff and the physcial managing, possibly even the mental, I thinnk they have more science believe it or not than Au applies atm, Au used to be awesome in this sense but im not sure if there has been a IP drain in this context or ppl just got old and retired and didnt pass it down …

'He'd been flogged to death': Rebels GM's scathing Tupou claim as Wallaby battles to reignite his fire

WE the benefit Leinster have is that their squad is big enough to make 3 teams as run on teams hence they can manage their players really well, my feeling is if he did go and spend 2 years there or so he would comeback as mean machine ripe to smash ppl for the W’s purely based on geting better influences and better physcial management …if one ting Ire can do is they may use them ebtter and they may train them better but they manage that all in context of the athlete and his purpose better too …

vs who? Ill be honest the Premieship I find kid of dull next to URC and Fra and Euro cup or challenge cup lol

Personally Id like to see raking come back except near the head, it would solve a lot of time wasting and being in the way again. never saw a bone broken with raking, this hip dop thing looks mighty dangerous though, and in my mind is very deliberate

There are only two ways rugby can go from here - and there's no middle ground between physicality and safety

Agree but this hip drop thing can be seen when its done as deliberate, it should be outlawed.

Harry no journo input on URC and Euro rugby for this side of the world?

'It can be something great': Schmidt turns to 'scrum doctor' as next step in Wallabies rebuild

I agree, even though Im biased to SA 😂 – but it will show up whether its the cattle he has at disposal now or deeper issues that are not being addressed at grass roots levels early on for kids on what being a forward and scrumming mean by compairson to watching league all the time …. hopefully he gets a chance to influence the culture of Au scrumming and forwards
