@Tim Just my interpretation that he needed to show he could kick on

Hope you are right - Papalii looks a real talent.

@Tim Good read.

Reading between the lines, looks like Hansen's impressed with Laumape & Moli's attitude and drive as well as Ofa & Bridge's standard of play. Less so with Fifita and Papilli.

Would love to know what he thinks of SBW.....

@SynicBast said in R.I.P James Small:

they never did learn how to tackle Nonu

To be fair, very few teams did.

Don't ever accuse the Pom cricket press of hubris....

Then they put another indian in the comms box with that lady and it was just awkward

Just watched the highlights on Sky UK.

Much as I like Ian Smith, he was embarrassing to listen to in this match

@Bones said in Black Caps v India - Semi Final:

Oooh errr, can I watch the final at yours?

Just bring your own rodding set.

@ACT-Crusader said in Black Caps v India - Semi Final:

We have a few chinks in the armour no doubt, but we sent a loud message to the other two sides today.

Shane Warne made an interesting point. Thinks that the experience NZ got from being in the last CWC will count for a lot.

Far more players stepped up to the mark in this game than in previous games - hopefully a good omen.

@Bones said in Black Caps v India - Semi Final:

Would be bloody nice to beat Aus in the final though...

I'd even clear out the drain inspection chambers for that...

@Bones

I was tidying my barn as well....fark knows what that's code for
