  @nepia said in All Blacks v France Test 3: @kiwimurph said in All Blacks v France Test 3: @nepia said in All Blacks v France Test 3: @kiwimurph said in All Blacks v France Test 3: Happy to see Frizell there - i'd rather see someone who has a really high ceiling be given a crack rather than the underwhelming options that have been seen previously (Squire, Fifita). How do you know he has a high ceiling? Hopefully he does, but nothing in his rugby so far suggests that - it's telling that he plays for Tasman and @Chris-B doesn't even fluff him. I didn't even know that Hemopo had been brought into the squad until yesterday. The selectors are loving on the Highlanders at the moment ... but at least Hemopo plays and is a Kiwi. I disagree. He looked a special athlete vs the Blues when he scored a hat-trick (yes yes it's only the Blues and i'm taking that into consideration). This is exactly why I'm not a fan of this move - you're rating him on one game. What did he do in all the other games he played this year, and by games I mean short cameos. You asked about his high ceiling and said nothing in his rugby suggests that. I pointed to a game in which his high ceiling was apparent. My point above is that I'm happy to see Frizell picked as Squire and Fifita have been given multiple chances and have mostly underwhelmed. I'm happy for some new blood to be given a go.

  @bovidae said in TV Serieseseses: @mikethesnow said in TV Serieseseses: Billions done. Superb. Sets up series 4 perfectly. Yep. Clancy Brown is brilliant in his role. Throw in some cameos from A-list sports stars and musicians along with the many music references and it's a winner. Still waiting for Jock to tell Chuck

  @virgil Heck no. I am making a run and I can sense the front runners sphincters are puckering up a bit under pressure. I believe there is some collusion between the leaders and the organizer of the comp by not having tipping this week. Sounds like the Ruskis are involved.

  Good to know you are still a mad, sick bastard ha ha. That sounds gruesome as fuck! I think you just did more cardio in 20min or so than I've done in the last decade :-
