He's probably thinking to himself "If Bridge can make the ABs...."

RE: Bledisloe II
Sitting through the Black Ferns v Wallaroos XVs game was an absolute treat compared to sitting through the 2018 Blues season.

RE: Stormers v Crusaders
Clearly the punishment should be that the Crusaders are forced to start Brett Cameron at 10 this week vs the Blues.....

RE: Crusaders v Hurricanes
@cgrant No they'll just look short compared to the towering height of Ardie on the opposite side.....

I just don't see the Wallabies being that bad the week after. The lineout is solvable and even if you lose a couple, try something else... The scrum will be bolstered with Sio back and Tupou on the bench. A couple of sessions on running lines and catch-pass for the backs. Hey presto, they're competitive.
They were damn good for the first half. Aggressive hard defence, straight running. On a different night with a different ref, you're looking at a healthy half time lead.
I keep saying it; ther'es not much between these sides at the top level. I don't think the Wobbles will be as bad at set piece, and I reckon supporters should be heartened by the non-set piece effort last week.
All true but they don't have the heart and lungs to do it for 80. They were absolutely gone after 35 minutes. The ABs blew several opportunities in the first half as well and also lost line outs. I agree that it's a decent Aus team, but Cheika is just a shit coach.
This can be easily fixed if they amend their game plan to slow the game down in certain areas. They were trying to play at pace when they didn't have the fitness to last the full 80. Losing Tongan Thor was a huge loss.
Please he's not a Norse God he is a fat Sth Auckland kid that didnt have the balls to have a go in NZ after leaving school. In his own words he said he was used to running over skinny little white boys so move to Aussie to play rugby. I dont see him adding anything to their team let alone his youtube page.
This seems harsh. He's a 22 year old tighthead prop who really improved this year in Super Rugby. He looks a serious talent.

RE: Bledisloe One: Wellington, October 11
Nothing says "I want to show i'm my own man" by selecting zero new starters.
The back 3 is just plain weird - shoehorning the best 15 to wing in order to select someone at 15 who looked far better at 10 (not 15) during Super Rugby and then on the other wing deciding against a strike winger.

Hes playing well enough. Esp playing in a poorly functioning team
For an AB spot? I cannot agree. He's certainly in good nick and playing better than he was in 2020 Mitre 10 Cup but he clearly lacks the explosiveness/speed when you compare him to Clarke, Nareki, Fainga'anuku, Reece etc. Heck even Rayasi in 15 minutes on the field showed more.

RE: NFL Season 2020/21
@mariner4life This is one of the reasons why QBs are so sought after in the Draft - first rounders have a 5 year contract (well 4 + a team option year) of relatively low cost.

RE: NFL Season 2020/21
Dak Prescott saga is finally over.
Enormous 4 year contract extension with the Dallas Cowboys.
Dak won this negotiation.
Talk about making bank.

RE: Blues v Highlanders
Speaking of trophies - the Gordon Hunter Memorial Trophy is obviously up for grabs across the two games between Blues and Highlanders (perhaps 3 games if there is a round 3 of SRA).
With the Highlanders losing it last year I can see them coming out of the blocks hard in this game.

RE: Crusaders v Chiefs
@gt12 The Chiefs 53-3 loss to the Cats in 2000 was a worse margin.

RE: Crusaders v Hurricanes
One real positive for Aumua was his throwing - was really sharp.
