@Kiwiwomble from what I understand the franchises were free to do their own but all decided to sign on with Classic.
Makes sense they would get a better deal for all 5 rather than individually

Big steamy poos

It is interesting that the cost is so closely related to the opponent, IME ABs games are not. The pricing might be a bit different, but really it is about the ABs.
-
I don't mind it, it keeps the teams in it for longer. Yes it's a bit odd that 8 of twelve makes the finals, but games are still games. Highest ranked may not always win, a bit of jeopardy.

@MiketheSnow awesome, my grandad and I flew a few of those. His art much better than my model making
-
The 6 nations is almost done, just the last to come, which has the 'final' in it - England Vs France
For the home nations scores it's England 180 others 20. If this team is selected purely on merit, there really shouldn't be many (any?) non roses in it.

I'm on my way to the bottom, as expected haha

This season is really hard to get interested in
I was very excited when I found that I could watch F1 on my already paid for Sky sub. But only watched 2 races, processional stuff now. Crashes and breakdowns are much rarer, and the pit stops are sull as compared to when they used to refuel. Might as well wrap the season up now, save some environmental harm haha

@Old-Samurai-Jack said in Force v Crusaders:
Hard to put your finger on why the Crusaders are so shit this year. The obvious reasons are the coaching and the "stem" of the team not up to it but still, they are much less than the sum of their parts. Shite in the areas what used to be strengths.
I think it's amazing the difference a 135 test lock, 85 cap hooker, "best ever Super Rugby player" at five-eighth and clarity of coaching can make to a team.
Not to mention a missing All Black who scores a try just about every test
So take away your top 4 or so players and a team will drop from 1st (7 years running) to bottom? It would be an interesting theory to try out. ABs have lost only 'lesser' best players, so should be OK

Heard it here first
NZ 0-2 England
England will be a tough prospect. Much, much improved team. Don't expect 0-2 though.
I do, NZ are home team, so 0-2 is exactly what I expect
England winning both Tests?
England may be on the up and Robertson new to the world of Test rugby, but unless he does something truly stupid selection-wise or turns out to be a shit coach, I can't see England winning twice.
My brain don't work, ignore I expect an NZ clean sweep

If razor picks more than a very small handful of saders, I will spit my dummy

@Canes4life said in Force v Crusaders:
@Machpants he was average, but the players were also very average.
Totally, he wasn't biased, just crap. But he wasn't as bad as the saders
-
@Canerbry said in Force v Crusaders:
@Canes4life sure, but you should also hate the Australian ref.
He was crap, no idea what he was seeing half the time, rucks were chaos
-
That is an utterly appalling performance by an NZ team. I am not sure I have seen anything as bad ever by a Kiwi team
