    @hydro11 OK, it says live on the TV tag bar thing. I did not even think about the time zone!

    Yeah, I saw that. I assume it was just a typo from Sky.

    @booboo Showing us a video from eight years ago, just in case the next eight weeks don’t go as planned.

    Sad really, we’re in danger of turning into England banging on about 2003 yet again.

    As long as we don't turn into England banging on about 1966

    And, if it hasn't already been posted elsewhere, something fishy going on here too

    When athletes test positive to clenbuterol, the excuse of eating contaminated meat always comes up ,

    Wait for it , it’s coming .

    Good to see Eddie issuing more warnings 😉

    Eddie Jones’ warning for All Blacks before ‘real battle’ with France

    Eddie Jones’ warning for All Blacks before ‘real battle’ with France

    Wallabies coach Eddie Jones has warned the All Blacks that “they’ve got two weeks” to get ready for a red-hot France side who recorded an emphatic win over Australia on Sunday evening.

    i for one would like that thank Eddie for his incredible ability to read a calendar. Definitely saved us the embarrassment of turning up a week late.

    Would have been nice of him to give us a heads up about the SA game, as it appears we forgot all about it until an hour before kick off

    @mariner4life also last time he issued a warning we heeded said warning and played pretty well.

    Eddie does spend a bit much time talking about NZ, but TBF the article isnt really quite what the headling indicates.

    Top 12 teams going into the tournament. Of note is that Fiji and Argentina are the highest ranked teams in their pools.

    Even allowing for Judiciary lotto ball type decisions, I couldn't see it being any different when you see the incident for 2nd yellow anyway, there would of been an appeal. First yellow was pretty rough decision anyway.

    There could be an argument for dropping Australia and including Fiji in TRC 😉
