The Bus played at 12 in Toulon's win yesterday. Fekitoa at 13.

@mn5 That one was for you!

Looking at this summary, striking how many Kiwis in top tier French comp: https://www.planetrugby.com/news/top-14-wrap-toulon-edge-battle-at-the-bottom/ . See Maori Jesus starting to rack up tries.

Needless to say, but I shall anyway for the Ferners, the result next year will be pivotal.
A threepeat means Fozzie in. Failure and alternatives will be considered.

None this time. The queue was merely to tell me I'd failed -- a simple e-mail would have sufficed!

The vaunted lucky losers' ballot can't be accessed until 15 Jan. Talk about much ado about nothing!!

@gt12 I haven't got anything specific, but did get invited to a "losers'" ballot.
That said I missed out previously (although have tickets to one semi), so would thereby qualify, but can't log in as ticketing site has 10,000 in the queue!!

Expecting the worst!

Joe has a child with some special needs, coming up to teenage (I think), so quite rightly the next move is focussed on him.

Anyone had a mail today conforming whether or not successful?

@cgrant said in Italy vs All Blacks:

Is Owen Franks still the best THP in NZ ?
From what I have seen this year's competitions and EOYT, Laulala, Tu'ungafasi and Ta'avao look better.

If referring to scrummaging, the answer is yes. Laulala also world class there.

Ofa an excellent all round prop, but not a top drawer starter. Angus developing well, and along with Hames (fitness permitting) will be in back ups for RWC.

For me, Ofa, Moody and Karl T our best ball carrying props.

Too much time on your hands.
