Auckland in a canter despite the referee.

@rotated I'm always concerned when he's involved. He appears to be happy when the All Blacks are penalised. That and he still can't work out when a pass goes forward.

It's one thing to say play well enough to take the ref out of the equation, but this isn't a fixture against Italy.

I'd also say the competition in the larger squad should see an edge to the Aussie game.

Anyone genuinely expect us to drop a game? The England game was being hyped for a couple of years, but that all dropped away, and now it appears Ireland are the big threat.

Not unless by sheer accident Eddie unearths what should have been his dynamic backrow all along. And Ireland are worse without their world class halfback. Combative, close games but still entries in the win column.

Here's a new one for you:

Jordie Barrett, what the fuck has he done this year?

ooooh good

3/8s of fuck all really. Cost us a test.

And as far as i can see from the Fern, has gone from being the ABs nailed on fullback for the next 10 years (except for the loons who think he's a 12) to being overtaken by some bloke called Jordan in 18 months.

I really hope you choke on that dildo some day. I hope you choke on it and the final thing you see is the Barrett brothers starting an AB test together while your little blonde NZ Schweinsteiger watches from the stands.

not bad. Big on bile, and so butt hurt.

Just really loses for points for assuming i am actually a fan of DMac.

(actually i could quite happily be NZ Bastion Schweinsteiger given his money and his missus).

I liked you Hurricanes supporters more when you actually knew your team was a flakey joke.

Very weak effort. Have to work harder.

You would go even gayer for DMac. Just admit it. Him and the one-balled hobbit.

Unlike you I don't engage in petty and pathetic provincial racism.

only one of us has openly declared they would turn for a player. keep that in mind at all times.

I'm not provincially (actually franchisely) racist, i am the most open-minded here, because i barely even like the Chiefs.

Wrong. I don't support any NZ Super Rugby franchise. So climb down from your dung hill of moral superiority and genuflect in awe.

good point! you are objective as hell! The only problem is, years of under-achievement has made you far too bitter. You've gone too far. You're vinegar.

Also your blazer/scarf combination offends me

I didn't get to choose it, it's part of the uniform. I prefer my black RMs.

@antipodean nah he texted Fozzie to find out more about why he didn't make the squad as he thought he'd done enough to make the 51. You weren't the player in that boat Weber...

What a presumptuous little fluffybunny. Fucking halfbacks. There's clearly three ahead of you and if we need to take more, we'll probably take those who helped steer the Super Rugby Champions around.

@dice said in AB EOYT 2018:

I listened to the radio this morning and Brad Weber got interviewed, and he thought he was going to make the team. He even texted Foster to talk about it. He seemed a bit emotional when talking about it.

Hahaha he fuck'n wot? Assumed he'd make the squad so sent Fozzie a text?

England's injury crisis is a bit disappointing. I wanted to have a full strength England and Ireland to determine where we're at outside of the Rugby Championship.

@nepia We had some fat bloke plucked from whitebaiting sent into the RWC final!

@broughie said in AB EOYT 2018:

@bones very unlikely that they would use him in the World Cup. This is not there MO.

Probably wouldn't use a fresh as winger from another code either?

Or a wet behind the ears winger against the Lions
