After several decades of the Kiwis propping us up financially, we thanked them by sabotaging their RWC. Now we are playing the victim?
Public schoolboy drama queens wasting our money on illiterate Leaguies and Jesus Freaks.
'NZ have treated us poorly': Why Phil Kearns is backing RA's hard ball, and how rugby 'wins over league every week'

The French complaining about referees is a bit silly after they saved the Bleating and Cheating Lions from ignominy when in NZL.
South Africans can never complain about referees with a straight face because their referees were so biased that World Rugby had to introduce neutral referees which set their home-winning statistics back so fast they got whiplash.
Australians of course are perfect and the Kiwis were amazing hosts. Their home-winning stats have been blown out of the water and increased severely because neutral referees don’t favour touring sides anymore in NZL like their hosts did; except French referees.
The Wrap: There's a reason Boks and All Blacks are at the big boys' table - the rest have to earn their way onto it
Perhaps they could all come and play for QueeNZland.
'Didn't want to leave': The Aussie-raised star in World Cup final - and the 'vision' that led him to the All Blacks
Don’t worry. It’s not as if he is any good. England is weaker with him than without and surely he will get another red card before September is over.
'Always illegal': World Rugby successful in appeal as Owen Farrell banned for start of World Cup
England can beat Oz at rugby? If pigs had wings they could fly!
@ MatthMoral and England do not belong on the same page let alone sentence. England became wealthy enough to fund the Industrial Revolution through slave trading, pirating, and opium pushing.
@RayinSydney Cricket is the second biggest sport in the world. It is now played in Chinese universities and growing every day.
As for government funding, the Australian Institute of Sport, (AIS) showed how money can distort things. When New Zealand (2) won more gold than Oz in Montreal there was Merry Hell to pay here and the AIS was created. At the LA Olympics NZL won eight gold and Oz won a record number of medals including four gold. Not enough gold and no face!
Sticking it to the mother country: England can beat Australia at rugby and football ... but what about every other sport?
As a member of the former hookers” union, he makes Sean Fitzpatrick sound like a cross between Einstein and Gandhi!!
'Hissy fit' or 'distraction'? How the rugby world reacted to Eddie Jones' 'tirade of abuse for the ages'
I am still miffed that we got rid of a great coaching set-up, which at the time, showed more promise than the All Blacks’ setup. The Kiwis kept their coach and we dumped ours for a showboat who has never won anything.
The Kiwis may yet win another RWC and we might not even make the QF’s. I will be barracking for Tonga and Samoa when I get to France.
PS What a gutless performance from the Baggies!! In the fourth test, with all the fieldsmen on the boundary while practising bodyline, is captaincy at its tamest.
Ex-Wallaby lashes 'disgusting negativity' after Knuckles' 'bloody disaster' rant on Eddie
Unfortunately White spends far too much energy on dreaming up his next smart-ass comment or getting ready to “stage” for effect and/or a penalty, to play freely anymore. Hence the robotic nature of his game.
PS Loved those Jaapies at the airport who ribbed him with, “We thought you were in ICU!!”.
Setback that could cruel Wallabies' RWC hopes - but all hope not lost if Eddie sticks with Gen Next
If they all went home our economy would collapse. Kiwis are the second highest-earning ethnic group in Australia and the second least unemployed.
'Look out': Eddie puts All Blacks on notice despite 'broken car' Wallabies' loss to Argentina
Shielding your stumps from a return throw is common and cheating in my view. Stokes is a disgrace to his heritage and has been too long in England to remember his culture. The coach is going the same way. Two former Kiwis who have had their innocence scrubbed off them by the corrupt and racist nature of English cricket that has just been laid bare by the report made to Lords last week.
English cricket has always been corrupt. e.g. The disgraceful Grace who kept running after the ball was lodged in his pads.
'Bloody oath I would': Head accuses bleating Bairstow of blatant hypocrisy over Ashes flashpoint
The English are not only desperate whingers but their habitual hypocrisy is laughable. Tony Lock pulled the same trick at the Basin Reserve, Wellington, in 1959 and he spent much of his time fielding at leg slip attempting to get more. Furthermore, Bairstow attempted the same trick earlier in the match but he lacked the skill and missed. He missed!!
The mercenary English captain won a world cup by diverting a return throw to the boundary.
The Marylebone Cricket Club was founded by slave owners and other lowlives. The tradition continues.
The spirit of cricket was murdered in cold blood by sunburnt thugs - and the game might never recover
The Boring Bumblies v The Hearty Horrorcanes? Hard to pick the Canbrrrrra side.
ANALYSIS: The 'mindless' tactic Brumbies must ditch to beat Hurricanes in a quarterfinal clash of styles
The referee was right and has been proven right by the tribunal. It was not a high tackle and it is time that runners diving at the tackler was outlawed. The tackler clearly tried to go low but the runner went lower preventing the arm from encircling him.
Why do we stand out as a country of whingers? Leave that to the STOPs, (Slave Trading Opium Pushers), and their remaining Celtic colonies, who respectively invented and perfected the art of whingeing. QueeNZlanders should never question the integrity of their motherland or we may end up without enough Kiwis to make a team in Union or league.
PS The only Australian Super Rugby winners, apart from the Bumblies, were due to referee errors. No whingeing from the Crusaders but both referees apologised to them.
The scorebord at the MCG used to carry the slogan, “The men in white are always right” and they weren’t referring to the STOPs.
As for the rub of the green, I find it ridiculous that South Africans complain when their referees made the use of neutral referees a must. My Bokke friend does not need to go back to 1949 when the Wallabies beat the All Blacks “C” team. O.K. Geffin won a series that year against the All Blacks who outscored the Bokke with tries in every game as every game in Super Rugby with a South African home town referee has been farcical.
Refs should be made to front up and explain themselves after Connor Vest broken neck incident
It was certainly a red card when compared with the farcical Sonny Bill R.C. against the Bleating and Cheating Lions when two French “referees” stole a series.
If it had been a Southern Hemisphere player, (aka Superior Hemisphere), there would not have been a murmur except for condemnation of the crude Southerners.
'What a bloody joke': Sexton bows out of 6N with slam but England fume over 'utter farce'
Which leads to more brain damage than any other sport.
Ensuring your off-season footy code war article offends as many fans as possible
That would be Reebo pronounced Leeboar?

Nigel said that he backed the Frenchman who was 100% correct!!!
Rugby News: Hoops set for comeback, RTS to NRL 'whisper', Tupou close to contract decision, Raynal breaks silence
Once upon a time, the Kiwis used to admire the intelligence of Wannabe players who mostly went to private schools. Now that most of the team consists of mercenary Kiwis and Melanesians I think that this attribute may be on the decline.
I do not know how Koroibete is able to complete 80 minutes. He refuses to use his arms in tackles and is so often offside that I sit in terror of the multiple blasts of a referee’s whistle. Add in a lock, who is now only invisible for six weeks, who head butts opposition visitors and in one foul swoop destroys another visitor’s career. Super dumb!!!!
Running rugby is Wallabies' kryptonite
This is not the first time this rule has been enforced. James O’Connor received a red card for throwing the ball away after the referee had warned our boys to stop time wasting. I think it was in Wellington and the referee was Joubert?
How Koroibete ever lasts 80 minutes is a mystery to me. I suspect other officials would have sent him off twice in the latest iteration of Red Neck Wallaby Diplomacy. Please someone tell him what his arms are for!! He will cause further embarrassment at the RWC when he is almost surely due for an early shower at a critical moment.
Who can seriously argue that the attack on the knee of the poor AB was accidental? The man is a dumb F…. . In Victoria it is lore that if you are going to hit a bloke, make sure he can’t get up. This clown can’t even perform a head butt that causes injury.
'If I knew you would do that': Raynal made the right decision the wrong way
The worst sportsmanship since sandpapergate! White should never be selected again. What was he thinking? Did he think he was English so it was OK to cheat?
LISTEN: 'Thought you were in the ICU!' Nic White cops it from heckling SA fans at the airport
Telling a lie over and over again does not make it true. The clown cartoonist is an Australian working for an Australian publication; Fairfax.
Cheika reveals his Wallabies regrets
Now that is offensive and has no place here. How do you know that this guy doesn’t have some disease causing the weight gain or that he feels depressed about his size. Your comments could trigger him.
Eddie Jones apologises for racism joke
Beale is showing a level of maturity I did not think he had. I hope this means we will never again see the behaviour that led to the resignation of a female member of staff and probably the best Australian-born coach since Bob Templeton (1971-73, 76, 79-81) – 29 tests, 13 wins. 44.83% win ratio.
Versus All Blacks: 6 tests for 2 wins.
