    not too cool, too apathetic

    Yeah I can’t even be bothered naming the team

    Too apathetic to hit copy and paste?

    This is worrying, we're losing this one because no one gives a shit.

    The 3rd Bledisloe is stupid. They should have to win two from two if they want to get it back, like we had to in 2003.

    Yeah a lot of the Ozzies on the roar say the same thing. Wallabies best 7 is Pocock, tho he is a bit of a one trick pony

    It’s a pretty decent trick though. The problem is the balance of the losse forward trio.

    Aussie haven’t had a decently balanced loose forwards trio since Finegan, Smith and Kefu were doing their thing.

    @Bones this is such a MN5 post.

    oh christ , when you start talking about yourself in the third person?

    I know. I haven't seen such blatant use of the third person since Lennox Lewis was in action.

    Trouble is that it has reached a point of a familiar pattern where we win the first two, the Wobs have a shit season but see the third as a chance to redeem themselves. The team and the fans are more interested in the NH tour as we are done and dusted vs the Wobs.

    The Wallabies have suffered a cruel injury blow with Reece Hodge ruled out of the spring tour after fracturing an ankle.

    Coach Michael Cheika revealed the setback after the Wallabies arrived in Japan on Sunday ahead of Saturday’s third Bledisloe Cup clash with the All Blacks in Yokohama.

    Utility back Hodge, who has played all nine of Australia’s Tests so far in 2018, is expected to be off his feet for at least two months, with Cheika yet to decide on a replacement for the four-match tour.

    Angus Cottrell is also out of Bledisloe selection contention after straining a medial ligament, but he will remain with the squad and is expected to be available for the European Tests against Wales, Italy and England.

    Or in Aussie lingo, "The Wallabies have been cruelled by an injury blow..."

    Doesn't feel like a Bledisloe test week. Could be because it's a dead rubber? Maybe because it is in Japan? Maybe because it's already Wednesday and Hansen hasn't baited Cheika yet.

    Don't expect the last one to happen this week as the most rancid bait will be saved Eddie no doubt.

    Plus the team hasn’t been named yet.
    When is that by the way?

    It's well after 0500 Japan time, so the team naming is late!

    Ireland's ace halfback Conor Murray will not take the field against the All Blacks in Dublin on November 17.
    Murray has not fully recovered from a neck injury that has kept him out of all rugby this season and it is still unclear how long it will be before he plays again.
    Murray, along with Aaron Smith, the best halfback in the world game at the moment has targeted a return for the Six Nations next year.

    "I'm itching to play, I'm pretty much fully training and I feel good. It's just making sure it's right and the lines of communication with Munster, Ireland, the national coaches, everyone has been clear and they're happy I just get it right and make sure I come back ready to go, rather than pushing it," he told media.

    Murray said the injury was one that could not be pushed and he needed to be sure his neck was strong enough to return to play.

    He had prepared himself with having to sit on the sideline for Ireland's Test with the All Blacks.

    "As a fan, it's really exciting, this November is going to be really, really cool," he said.

    But while he couldn't take part it would be an opportunity for someone else.

    @daffy-jaffy Massive loss for Ireland. It would be the equivalent of us losing BBBR.

    I watched the Eden Park Wallaby test again last night. We smashed them, but i didn't think we were that great. Murdered them on turn over though, and smashed them on defense. Retallic was massive, and i think BB's 4th try is the try of the year so far.

    BB's kicking game was a real mixed bag, some really nice touch-finders, but his high kicks were way to deep to contest.

    So he over compensated in Pretoria where they were way too short and left us vulnerable to counter attack?

    @booboo maybe he's just not that good.

    Still think taking that try off for Ardie's knock on was fucking bullshit.

    Quite seriously, when is the team named? 5pm my time?

    @rotated has been posting. IIRC he usually knows about those things.

    I don't know for sure, but outside of RWC where WR set the deadline, but for the last few years it seems like they always try to release for Thursday early morning NZT regardless of where the game is played.
