The comments silence is deafening. Four Australian teams please. Make it happen RA. There are no rugby boats rising with the collective economic tide of such a crappy model.

Chiefs all but extinguish Force’s finals hopes in record Tron trouncing, injury concerns for Dmac

The orange juice is bitter this morning.????

'Purely coincidental': Chiefs coach defends bruiser after ANOTHER late shot leaves Tah flattened - but was it legal?

Swinton! Notice the difference and maybe ask Quinn about that.

Well done mrl. Scraping the bottom of the barrel prize goes to you! And the prize. A tiny cup full of whine.

Well they tried that didn’t they but weren’t up to it. Do you think any team tries to be less physical than the opposition?

Losts of sensitivity coming from you James.

The disaray has been going on for years and so it’s not a cheap shot to say Australian teams have benefited from this new competition structure. In twenty eight years Ozzie teams have won the competition four times. The Brumbies have won it twice with a top four play-off. Eight finalists is, as you say, meant to be a money spinner, but competitive rugby generates crowds. Remember how Australians loved the covid games? I still maintain the best competition finals would involve the very best teams regardless of what side of the Tasman they come from. News just in. Super Rugby Pacific now has three competition phases. Regular season, pre finalists and finalists.

'Kid wonder': Lancaster, Gordon shine as Rebels take one giant step in locking in maiden Super Rugby finals berth

The Rebels have played some average teams recently and when they beat an average kiwi team Doran fawns over them. There’s time for adulation at the pointy end. And yes the data does suggest that given how terrible Australian teams have performed
over the years that the competition had to have eight finalists because Australian teams would be invisible otherwise.

Funny guy. How many teams reach the finals? Eight out of twelve. Give me another smiley face in a few weeks ???? because it’s win win for Ozzie teams.

Wow, Australian team beats worst kiwi team and it’s amazing. Australian team to make rigged finals!

I was. Colour matters.

'Gutted': Edmed misses shot after siren as Tahs blow chance of going back-to-back against Kiwis for first time since 2015

Ok, So number four kiwi coach. Just like the others this will not end well.

How Joe Schmidt is going to 'connect us all' and bring Australian rugby back from the brink

Can you please stop kamikaae. Your smug posts are embarrassing. Age has not made you wiser.

37 phases and OUT! Whitelock the hero as All Blacks win epic RWC QF to break Ireland's hearts again

I remember a few years ago an Australian Journalist describing the WBs being overrun by Smiths. I suggest they take the red pill (or some other pill) before France 2023.

ANALYSIS: Wallabies' maul is falling short and their French coach must fix it fast

The melting chocolate rugby team. Or is it Eddie’s chocolate factory with underperfoming umpalumpas?

'Whoever sacked Rennie, needs sacking': Eddie Jones wants you to 'pray' as his stock sinks faster than NZ economy

Now that’s a very silly comment.

All Blacks smash Wallabies to seal Bledisloe AGAIN as Eddie's pain grows after devastating injury to star prop

Coming in from the side? The boks did for the whole second half.

'Cardinal sins' the Wallabies have highlighted they must fix to stand a chance in Bledisloe Cup

No! Not the F word again.

'Cardinal sins' the Wallabies have highlighted they must fix to stand a chance in Bledisloe Cup

A ski ramp would help. Admiral Kuznetsov?

'Cardinal sins' the Wallabies have highlighted they must fix to stand a chance in Bledisloe Cup

The word that comes to mind here is hubris. A posture that leads to nemesis. The inescapable agent of someone’s downfall. When Pandora opened her jar all the spirits escaped except hope who stayed behind to comfort rugby coaches.

'Fancy ourselves against New Zealand': Eddie excited for 'highlight' of year, says Bledisloe result won't define RWC

More editing needed James. The bitterness of a lonely punter dulled the shining light of wonderful rugby.

There is a whiff of myth about this Springboks side - and they were badly exposed by All Blacks' coaching team

I think Adam was “born” fully formed. Like the bok forwards.

'Absolute beast mode': All Blacks bash Boks with Frizell and Jordan on fire in stirring win

Such bad sportsmanship. Did you know the kiwis never install drainage in their playing fields and actually truck in tons of mud.

Triple threat turns to triple concern: Wallabies star's indecisiveness gives Eddie food for thought ahead of RWC

To Razor and Craig. Never accept a coaching position in Australia. Your careers will be finished unless, of course, you find that “Australian Way” (don’t kick the ball out at kickoff!) coaching manual buried somewhere in the ARU archives.

Better backline. No. A few stats please.
