    I think back a decade or two and the "Razzle Dazzle" shit the ARU marketing team put out. Fucking hell how are the kids going to get to grips with that?

    Need a beat, a bit of rap, and some well-edited video on top

    So in theory we only need to win 1 game vs the Boks to win TRC as we have loads of bonus points etc? Of course, we have to beat Argentina next weekend which on current form should be a formality.

    Eventhough I think they only have themselves to blame I think both SA and Arg will improve dramatically next games, just in terms of assimilating to local conditions. Arg in particular just looked really short of a gallop and puffed by half time. South Africa obviously will be upset and come out with a point to prove, for all the chest beating prior about the Lions, they were incredibally inaccurate

    Boks also didn't look fit. Partly the quarantine but partly that they were forced to run around a bit more than usual. I'll reference Eddie Jones' book again, to paraphrase his game plan against the Boks: shift the big boys around - they don't like it and opportunities open up

    Covid cases in Brisbane. Wonder if they will move the last round to Perth if a lockdown happens.

    @akan004 Perth might not let them in if it goes to lockdown, maybe.

    @akan004 If the players stick to their big bubbles, playing without a crowd makes much more sense.

    @stargazer As long as the Qld govt permits that then you are right. For now it looks like the tests will go ahead, the Premier hasn't mentioned the possibility of lockdown yet.

    are they actually in bubbles?

    Even public shit like their Townsville Esplanade photo shoot?

    Either way it wouldn't matter, the chook would sacrifice a looot of people to ensure that she puts on the NRL GF when NSW couldn't
