@canefan Now?
Pack down a scrum, waste 5 minutes, keep England in their 22 and win the match, or take a stupid DG. Mistake by BB.

That's what I actually thought we were going to do, some sensible stuff. Then I saw BB set for the DG.....

To be fair to BB he probably didn’t have a crystal ball telling him he would be sent off in the next minute. 25-6 should have been a winning margin for a good team

Athletics legend Sir Murray Halberg dies

New Zealand athletics legend Sir Murray Halberg has died aged 89.

Definitely one of our legends. Story doesn’t really explain how serious his teenage rugby injury was, one story I read was that they had to surgically remove a 2 litre blood clot in order for him to survive, that is close to half of his total blood supply. Would be interested to see how Arthur Lydiards training methods would go with todays athletes

I've noticed moustaches have made a come back in the late teen, early 20's age group. Matched with a mullet of some sort.

Yes I have one of those in the family, it sort of suits him though

Been getting into Glen Campbell over the last week or so. Never quite realised he was also a genuine Guitar God who would probably be in the top 10 in any genre. That said, this is seriously un-cool though

Not quite sure about that….but he was definitely very good.

I saw Glenn Campbell live when I was about 16. My mum was a big fan and was going through a hard time, I managed to save enough money for her and a friend to go but her friend pulled out at the last minute. So I was the ring in and tagged along hoping I wouldn’t see anyone I know. And turns out it was a seriously good gig and think of that night every time I hear Rhinestone Cowboy or Witchita Lineman

Fantastic

I think most professional musicians know how to put on a good performance. I also saw Madonna at Wembley Stadium, seriously uncool, but her whole stage show etc made the show, regardless of the music you walked away thinking Wow.

I hope authorities are following up in cases where death threats have been made.

Has there been any post match footage of BBBR receiving his 100 test cap?

Washing day!

I obviously used to go to the wrong laundromats

Both giving almost identical answers saying its become very risky trying to maintain possesion for long periods now without conceding a penalty

if teams are coached to avoid the ball because of the risk of a penalty I'm rather saddened by that.

If giving away possession to avoid penalties make sure it is down inside the opposition 22, or get the bloke with the biggest boot to attempt the 50:22

Why for the love of god would you attempt a dinky little kick in behind the English defence, just outside our 22, when we've only got three fucking defenders covering more than half the pitch?

Apparently Ardie called TJ to kick it there , and then stuffed up the chase , got himself in front and had to back off

The Canes fucked us. Typical.

And BB - once a Cane always a Cane
