Nice wrap Geoff, just a note Dave Rennie is coaching Glasgow I believe
The Wrap: Super Rugby finals spots still open for all teams
I can’t see the Rebels making it.
Where the action is: Five into two wildcard spots won’t go
Not sure how big he is but he always seemed to go forward with the ball and drive opposition players back in the tackle, his massive work rate and ball skills were my main reasons for the comparison to Retallick
The best of the next All Black generation
If Michael Fatialofa comes back from injury showing the form of 2016 he may be in the frame for the fourth lock position. A bit of a forgotten man due to injury who was one of the best of a championship Canes pack in 2016, they missed him last year. He has some Retallick like qualities about him.
The best of the next All Black generation
I think there is a common thread in the performances of Damien Mckenzie for the Maori and Beauden Barret for the Canes against the Chiefs. They were both playing behind packs that were well beaten at set piece and at the breakdown and to add to Mckenzie’s woes were the awful weather conditions and the fact that he has been playing at fullback for his entire SR career (I think DM himself is the only one who thinks he is a 10).
I believe that the All Blacks will at the very least get parity up front and maybe even dominate the lions scrum, if the Crusaders scrum is anything to go by (barring left field refereeing decisions from a rogue french referee) and combined with Aaron Smiths quick delivery BB will have a lot more time and space than the others had and we all know he doesn’t need much. If the AB’s can’t get parity up front they are in for a long night!
Pressure on No. 10: Why Beauden Barrett’s performance may decide the Lions series
Yeah but you don’t pay is ridiculously overpriced pac cheque, RA rely on Major sponsors to fund their game and they won’t support an organisation that condones this stupid behaviour. This is not a freedom of religion or freedom of speech issue it is an employment issue and he was stupid enough to push RA over the edge as so that they had no choice. He is free to believe what he wants as is everyone else but it doesn’t mean he can shout it from the rooftops as one of the faces of Australian and world rugby. What if he had extreme racist views is that ok also?
Rugby Australia should have remained neutral on the Folau saga
