McCaw, Carter GOATs Nonu-Smith - GOAT Midfield combination with Nonu arguably being the GOAT of all NZ 12s Kev and Myth - all time great ABs Kaino...? I knew I missed one name - I plead dealing with an irish friend who had the gall to say Nigel favoured the ABs tonight 13-6 penalties in their favour, plus a made up yellow card. That's what we need to work on next game, discipline, along with making sure the team can mentally get up after that performance

  I am quietly confident. Barring an early red card, or a blistering scoring start by the Blossoms, or it being ball hair close with 10 minutes left, or the Boks being off the boil or....or... or..... Ok. I’m a tad nervous. But that’s kudos to the Japs who have earned my respect

  @Catogrande said in RWC: England v Australia (QF 1): @Disgusted-of-TW said in RWC: England v Australia (QF 1): Sometimes no punchlines are necessary Reminds me of the Rodney Marsh quote from his England debut:- Alf Ramsey "Rodney, I'm going to have to pull you off at half time" Marsh "Thanks boss, we only get an orange at QPR". Good old Rodney, he and Stan Bowles made me proud to be a Hoops fan as a kid. Having said no punchlines necessary, I belatedly thought of a caption for that video: "Unblocking the Sinck?" L'espirit d'escalier, I think our French chums would call that.

  Hated the last try. Defend for you life for 84 minutes then ref let's a team take a quick tap way perpendicular to the mark. Soft, (by the ref). It is a pet hate of mine.

  Stu was the AB captain by default on that tour. One to forget too. I thought BFA might have captained from the wing but he was at fullback.

  @Machpants said in RWC: Australia v Georgia (Pool D): @junior said in RWC: Australia v Georgia (Pool D): @mariner4life said in RWC: Australia v Georgia (Pool D): Excellent, apparently we should expect Hooper and Pocock again next week. That'll work. It just might against England, though. The Poms play two open sides in Curry and Underhill, so less reason to abandon Pooper against them than against a conventional back row formation. Cunderhill or Underry? Neither beats Pooper or Hocock

  @sparky said in RWC: All Blacks v Italy (Cancelled) (Pool : Very easy to make the right call with hindsight, but I think if they had moved the kickoff forward three and a bit hours to 10:30 on Saturday morning Japanese time, then this game could have gone ahead and everyone would have got back indoors ahead of the typhoon arriving in Nagoya. I would imagine, given the seriousness of the situation and the unpredictability of the typhoon, this was simply not possible. The authorities had to shut down the trains, and other utilities, the last thing on their minds was transporting rugby teams and their spectators to and from a ground in the middle of a typhoon warning zone
