@mariner4life Ben Blair learns and gets that!
if you are even remotely suggesting that Blair is picked over AB legend Mils Muliaina then you and I can no longer converse.

@mariner4life At the time I suggested he be played on the wing due to Carlos' shonky goalkicking!

@mariner4life He wouldn't have if Benny had been taking the kicks!

Carlos looked alright nailing that one from the sideline after he scored that ripper try for the Blues v your mob. Maybe a little faith aye Agent Robbie?

On the subject of overweight people, Steve Hansen gets more and more corpulent. Someone could buy him a exercise bike to use a bit in the off season.
Joe Schmidt by contrast is as thin as a rake.

He and Foster must chew through the catering budget
Is there anything worse than a fat rugby coach yelling at you to run hills harder in preseason? fuuuuck you tubs, you could use these more than me!

Yeah, keep talking about the 2003 RWC as I don't have as many bad memories compared to 2007. In 2007 I had tickets to both the SF and final and had no interest in going to them after that game in Cardiff. :pouting_face:

i was in Paris looking at kiwi touring parties wandering around in a daze. And then selling their final tickets for a fortune to ecstatic poms

@mariner4life pretty sure it's Nic Gill that would be doing any shouting about runing harder and shit...otherwise as you were.
We hadnt bought tickets, but were planning on heading to Cardiff in 1999 for the weekend...

I was there too, although incognito. I sold them to Saffers. The SF tickets went to Poms.
All the Kiwis on the Williment tours were still wearing their AB kit, even when we all seemed to end up at a bar to watch the NPC final.

my AB jersey got packed up and sent home from Poland 2 days after the quarter
And then my mates i met up with in Paris gave me a 2007 RWC edition one for my 30th...
That jersey was worn to the 2011 final, so it's all good now!

Jesus - how have we got to this depressing topic.
On the plus side, that was really the last hurrah of the Australians' golden era.
Score since then at a rough count is 36-7, with two draws!
This is going to turn in to a week where we finally unload all the demons that have been haunting us all these years. The Fern and the ABs, freshening up for a renewed assault on 2019
The only reason we didn't win 2007 was the bullshit citing/suspension of Lauaki that was rightly tipped over, but too late to bring him in to the side. He plays that quarter, we win.

Still have to go with the forward pass. The series of phases leading to the Rodders try were dominant and exactly the opposite of a team choking away a game around the 65th minute. Don't see Lauaki being more physical than Rodders or Collins were that game. The forward pass not only puts France ahead but got them out of their own half where they had already conceeded multiple line breaks in the 3-5 minutes since the last try.
The difference between 2007 and 2011 isn't that great. No matter how good a team is - unless they are averaging 8 tries a game, you can't expect them to manufacture a try in a given 10 minute period on demand. If France score a bullshit try in the 65th minute of the 2011 final good luck to Ellis and Donald clawing that back, given how Joubert reffed the final stanza.

Nah! 2007 was all about the failure to set up the drop goal. Lots of opportunities to pop it over in the last few minutes there but McAlister didn't take them.

Odd that you'd blame the junior 3rd string 10 for that when the leaders on the field acknowledged that they were playing for a try and/or penalty.

There's absolutely no excuse for anyone in high paid jobs to be fat fluffybunnies. None whatsoever. It's not like all him or Foster can afford is a couple of loafs of white bread to feed the family.....
