SBW makes my rugby dick hard. Fuck off @MN5 stop proving you know fuck all.
Nutbrown has out the whistle away and it's a free for all at the moment
That comment is still less gay than liking Nicole Kidman I guess

Surely a player, regardless of their religion can't be allowed to cover up a sponsors logo.
If I was that sponsor I'd be pretty fucking pissed having no doubt paid thousands of dollars for the right to have a logo there.
Cant be different rules for different people, especially religion based ones.
It happened in cricket..
Michael Jones didn't play on Sundays..
If you're not careful you could lose those players for good.. Sometimes even money can't pay for people's values.. -

I thought that was a better game for the Blues but still too many individual errors. Fekitoa was awesome. Just played tough, kept coming and by the end he and Buckman had won the midfbield battle against the Auckland stars.
Yeah Fekitoa's best game for some time. He was a monster on defence and showed a few nice touches in attack.
Dixon played really well in that 2nd half. Tackled like a demon and covered a lot of ground.
Francis was excellent I thought.
Not much in these teams and in Orcs it could've been the other way round.
A good game to watch.

Ref wasn't great, but that wasn't the reason the Blues lost. They have plenty of talent there but it seems not many rugby brains. Far too many errors and the lineout is utter shit. I heart Umaga, but I'm not sure he's that good a coach. This team just don't appear well-drilled, well led or well conditioned. Must must obscenely frustrating for Blues fans.
Duffie must be close to AB selection surely. His aerial skills alone are pure gold at test level.

There's just something about Duffie that strikes me as an average test option. I can't pinpoint it, he's playing some great footy though. Must be the mabo.
It's because he's a skinny white guy isn't it? Racist.

That quota is filled though by Bogan, Bender and FABJB...

@Rancid-Schnitzel there's surely some wog in that olivey Mofo.

He looks the quintessential Paddie in this picture:
Don't get much skinnier or whiter than that.

Veitchy is running with tapegate on his FB page too.
There are some serious fucking idiots who post on social media.I hate Veitch, but he knows how to get hits.
His ex will vouch for him being able to dish them out too.

@Rocky-Rockbottom I assume he's awaiting the outcome of the discussion between the Blues and his manager before he says something (see 2nd quote). Seems the right approach to me, although that talk should have taken place before he decided to cover up the BNZ logo during yesterday's game.
The Highlanders won 26-20, but it was Williams' decision to cover over the BNZ logo that caused a stir on social media rather than the result. .. A BNZ spokesman told news media it was a matter between Williams and the Blues. "He's entitled to have religious beliefs and customs around that and it's really between him and the Blues as to how that manifests itself. So we have no issue with it," the spokesman said.Radio Newstalk ZB on Sunday quoted a Blues official as saying they were unclear why the logo was taped over and would discuss the issue with Williams' manager.
