Ben Donaldson cost the Force the game. High impact moments needed, but gross shortfall. No wonder the Waratahs did not entertain retaining him. I’d have him about fifth on the national pecking list of 10’s.

Western Force 'let slip' another match in huge blow to finals hopes in one-try game - but it's not all bad news

Have you studied English? Because you have absolutely no idea about grammar and punctuation. Much like most of the posts on here. Every time I view The Roar posts, I’m utterly dismayed at how many people cannot write properly. In fact, I’m seriously thinking about boycotting this site, because it is so embarrassing to see how many people seem to have no grasp of the English language.

'Two global heavyweights eyeing each other' - who will prevail in Pool B glamour bout between Boks and Ireland?

What I don’t understand is, those who are making posts, struggle to be able to punctuate or even spell correctly. Obviously the result of a poor education system. I have seen posts where the grammar is so bad that it makes me wonder how these people ever graduated high school.

Super Rugby Report card and 2024 predictions: How the Aussie teams fared and what the future holds

Can anyone give me a results backed reason why “box kicks” should still be employed as a method of attack? I think it makes more sense to walk up to the opposition and hand them the ball, and suggest that maybe 50% of the time, they knock on, to make the game seemingly interesting.

Five things we learned: The day Australia's playmakers arrived in thrilling RWC audition for Eddie

Hooper doesn’t have the same authority over the ball he used to. Fast, efficient cleaning out of rucks is today’s mainstay.

Totally agree!

'I'll see you in hell': Kerevi claims RA silenced 'angry' players who backed Israel Folau, reveals he was targeted

Here’s a thought. How about World Rugby declare the Jordie Barret try “null and void”, in light of the absurd prior refereeing decision, and declare the match a draw. Thereby keeping the Bledisloe Cup alive and competitive.

REACTION: 'Disgraceful!': Wallabies stunned as ref 'cracks under pressure,' hands Bledisloe Cup to All Blacks

It did go above the horizontal, and should have been a yellow card.

I think I have a great concept for Super Rugby AU 2022. How about all the Aussie teams just play each other, and then we send videos of the matches to the Kiwis, and ask them how they thought we went.

'We're comfortable': NZR boss defends Bledisloe no-show in face of Australia's 'emotion'

I think we need a Scott Fardy clone, a David Pocock cousin, a Jim Williams relative, a Larkhim nephew, a Lynagh son, a close friend of Matthew Bourke, and someone who knows John Eales; and there you have a renewed, compulsive to watch, brand-spanking new Wallabies stream team.

Maybe we could shift B3 to Tasmania, and ask Ricky Ponting to be a guest commentator. That way we could be assured of a cricket score.

'We're comfortable': NZR boss defends Bledisloe no-show in face of Australia's 'emotion'

Should RA “fine” NZR for half of the pre-paid tickets for Bledisloe 3 in Perth? Is this a “goodwill” gesture, or should RA just suck it up, and move on and achieve a positive result, where rugby is the winner?

While it is almost universally agreed Michael Hooper has contributed massively to the lore of Australian rugby, should we be looking to the emerging skill set of a 7, who has a more dominant physical presence dominating breakdowns and ruck cleanouts? Does this mean maybe putting two “6s” on the field together to consolidate ruck dominance, whilst adding a fourth line out option?

How the Lions won the battle of the big men in Cape Town

What troubles me is how few people can actually spell, punctuate, and construct a series of sentences, which are grammatically correct.

I would have thought Dempsey a shoe in for new captain. Better a forward than a back, I say.
