Bledisloe I

[Chris B.]

John Hart interviewed (from 9.30) - always worth listening to. Talking up the Aussies - reckons they'll be competitive, though we will win. Says we shouldn't underestimate them.

Notes Read is light years ahead of any other NZ No. 8 - think Akira is No. 2.

Agrees with me on Goodhue - thinks he'll be the incumbent centre by RWC, with SBW and Crotty fighting it out for the 2nd five spot. Didn't mention ALB... @mariner4life you might need to retrieve your toys so you can throw them again.

Thought they would have gone with BSmith and Jordie.

Expecting Beauden to have a big game.

@nzzp I had a look through the refs last year, I think Barnes is one of a couple of top refs (all NH) that we've lost more than we've won under. That WR conspiracy to have ABs top is going well.

The really irritating thing is that for most of a game, Wayne-o refs really well. It's just a few things that seem to have no 'feel' for the game, or random ticky-tack calls against the run of play.

Ah well, he's going to ref us at Eden Park. Where last time he coughed up a crappy forward pass call at the end of the game. We better play well

[mariner4life]

@chris-b what the actual fuck does John Hart know about the midfield?

[taniwharugby]

@chris-b Yeah I listened to that on the way home, always speaks pretty well and doesnt try to gloss it too much.

@mariner4life he knows you dont play a 15 at 13...now

[Chris B.]

@mariner4life A fair point.

he shouldn't have had to know anything about that. Any combination of Wilson, Cullen, Lomu, Osbourne and Tana should have murdered pretty much anyone

The guy is a ticking time bomb and I would not be too upset if he pulled his hammy stepping out of the shower before the game

Yeah - Harty had long booted him to touch.

The name M4L is missing is Frank Bunce! To quote John "the obvious centre...".

Wasn't Osbourne at the 99 world cup?

Bunce is a midfielder. Hart inherited him.

This argument is going around in circles, make your positions clear so i can berate you for idiocy more easily

Fuck off Queenslander.

Reading Chris' overview, it appears he doesn't rate chiefs players. I think he was probably having a dig at you personally, hoping word would get around.

As much as Osbourne is apparently underrated?

pretty much

If it wasn't for a freakish Tongan, Glen Osbourne was our best player at the '95 World Cup
