@Snowy's house? Don't go to Snowy's house.
Shit, not inviting that fella over for a beer now. Scary stuff.
Nah, @Snowy is sweet. I've been in his basement since 2007. The food is pretty crap but the Wi-Fi is all-time.

I know, right! Like we've got World Rugby and the refs in our pocket.
You forgot we control the weather in Japan as well.
What do you mean? We got the hurricane in so we could have an extra weeks break in the build up to the knock out stages.
Just how far do we need to go to make some of you lot believe?

This is quality.
Side that has no knockout wins thinks NZ are mentally weak. Lads, you're 12 years too late.
Kiwi World Cup doubt lies just under the skin, if Ireland can dig in
Even with three World Cups to their name, New Zealand’s past in the tournament is a painful one.
That was such a painful read. They even pulled out the whole Beaver-penalty-not-really-going-over-in-2011 thing.
I haven't read it but I thought that was supposed to be a good place for rugby journalism?

A handy reference to the difference between UK, Great Britain and the British Isles
Fake news.

So did I . It’s Ireland based isn’t it? I guess in all the excitement they reverted to type. Tomorrow’s article will either be about the haka or poaching

Personally think it's a good idea overseas teams use NZ coaches.
Would get pretty boring winning every game against NH teams by 20-30 points all the time....

Its not like he left the AB setup and went directly to coach Ireland. Man's got to work.... Besides its almost time for secret agent Joe to push the self destruct button on his team

Who's coaching them after the RWC? Must be about time Agent Deans got back in the ring.

He's in Japan at the moment? If he doesn't get the ABs gig maybe secret agent Razor can go? 00 Dave Rennie is currently positioning himself to take over the dumpster fire that is Scotland

Serious question because I can’t remember, Did he penalise us in the second half ?
The penalty count was 10-2, I can't find a half time break down - but we didn't get one in the last 60 minutes from memory? Must have been at least 3-4 in the second half for the French.
A lot is made of the forward pass, or yellow card, but from a purely statistical perspective the odds of having 70% possession/territory and being negative 8 on the penalty count is impossible without incompetent (wilful or not) refereeing.
