    Probably on a two year contract so not much that can be done about it really other than continuing to pay his salary but pick another player from the fifteen or so contracted players that are not injured.

      Standings after two games. NZ needs a hell of a game against the Aussies to reach the Cup QF.

          @Stargazer don't they just need to win? They have the best points difference by far.

                Ah yeah forgot, just looking at the table. One point win will probably do then

                        @Higgins Hope the ref didn't have a hand in that (I didn't watch the game). Don't want a repeat of last week, when the home team was "helped" by the officiating.

                          NZ being mean to Aussie by not letting have the ball much. 36-7 with time up on the clock.

                                      Just watched the Spain game. Thought Spain played pretty well. Pretty good line speed.

                                      7s reffing is a total lottery. Seemed some baffling decisions both ways.

                                        Good one Spain. They look pretty sharp from what I've seen last couple of tournaments, and often just lack that final bit of polish to get the job done against more established sides.

                                        The Aussies however are inconsistent in their decision making. France harried then well and we made crucial errors with our lack of composure. "Rocket" Rod Davies is a dud

                                          FT: NZ 24 - 26 Spain

                                          Too many missed tackles, shit officiating. Not sure whether Spain deserved the win, because several of their tries came after bad decisions from the ref. However, a well-playing AB7s team would have won anyway.

                                          Spain is one of the strongest of the upcoming nations; good for the game to have a new country joining the top and giving strong competition to the usual favourites.
