Born in Highlanders country, but now living in far north tropical realm of the Reds, where the cult of Thurston, Smith and Billy the Kid is still strong!

I disagree… To have club congrats to the their guys playing for kangaroos and junior kangaroos and junior kiwis, but pointedly ignore their guys playing for Tonga and PNG smacks of incompetence at least… and racism at worst. I just hope it’s the former… Swift kick up the backside needed at Sharks management…
Angry Fifita turns sights on Sharks
Very good chance he’ll be spending some off season behind bars, hopefully with his brother for company …
The Wrap: Truth the first casualty in rugby’s propaganda wars
That’s nonsense Akita knows he’s in the frame as utility cover for 6 and 8 if there’s any more injuries… Remember NZ played 2011 WC final with the 4th choice flyhalf and could easily play the 2019 final with 5th or 6th choice loosie if more injuries or head knocks occur in 2019.

Totally… just as Brad Thorn has little understanding of back play, but should recognise that deficiency and employ an assistant who does.
Why is Michael Cheika playing Russian roulette with his career?
Totally agree… Not a deep thinker… Certainly no tactician.

Yeah they’re replacing him with that kid Reiko at 11 instead … so no problem for Keil at all ????
With the Springboks side announced, there are some surprises
No that wouldn’t be reasonable because when BBB defends in the front line, he rarely misses… The reason he is often instructed to hang out wide is to be in position for the lightening fast counter. He also drops back to be sweeper/ fullback on defense for the the same reason. Speed.
Note he drops back more often late in the game, when the heavy defense has faded. But takes the front line tackles early in the game when the battle is tighter.
Tough to make a strong defence for Grey’s Wallabies gig
Wallaroos have had to make a lot of tackles. Ferns game plan looks simple… Hold the ball for multiple phases until the defenders start to tire.

Well league fans have had plenty of chances to watch NZ beat the Kangaroos, both in world cups and four nations tournaments over the last 16 years. The kiwi league team has done much better than the wallabies on the big stage – this century at least.

Very interesting to read about young Ainsley replacing Thor on the bench. Didn’t realize he was an Otago Boys product …plenty of great forwards have come out of there… What a Debut for him… Will have to watch his face during the haka. ?

I agree Cantab … Battle of the new centre combos… But if Crotty can stay on the paddock and avoid anymore HIAs… Then Goodhue should be able to shine.
The Wallabys centres are easily good enough to prove me wrong – if they can fire.

Sarah Goss > Caslick
In my humble opinion bro…
Similar all round skills plus big physical strength when needed ?.
Pity NZ has decided to rest all their WC-winning sevens stars in this match… So Goss and Portia Woodman will be watching on the television. But should make for a more even contest.
Hope Fox Sports have chosen knowledgeable female or male commentators…. The women’s 15s WC coverage from BBC in Northern Ireland was pretty good.

Thanks for the chuckles, much needed, but you’ve been shaded by the WBs own standup comedy team with their classic lines:
” No we don’t have a line out problem, we have worked on that”
” These defensive problems can be easily fixed”
Comedy gold.
Kiwi-Nobbling: The only way forward for the Wallabies
No it would of diluted the wallabies and UK sides…. The Polynesians playing for NZ are mostly NZ born raised and schooled … unlike those playing for Aus Ireland France etc
