Rugby World Cup general discussion

the photo looks weird, bench with fozzie and cane, uneven numbers at the back, load of people with eye shut or looking in different directions, cobbled together photoshop?
@Kiwiwomble Also look at how far Fozzie is from the ginga, weird he'd select him when you can clearly see he despises him. Are NZR enforcing a ginga quota on him?

@Nepia @Kiwiwomble They wouldn't have needed the backrow in the photo if Christie would have sat next to Fozzie on that bench and one player at the back would have taken Christie's chair. The others in the backrow could have filled the empty spots in the row in front of them. Obviously, Fozzie is too fat for even Christie to fit on that remaining space on the bench.

The real question is, does the quota extend to two players, and if so, who is the other one? Fletcher Newell? DMac?

I wonder what that would pay at the TAB.

@nostrildamus Is that you Stephen Jones?

I was serious actually, quite a few players are dual nationals, considered stars in the land of their birth, or even don't have the citizenship of the country they play for (no not Quade now, I'm thinking of a certain Will Genia!)

forgive my ignorance but is there a NZ supporters' song for this RWC? If not, could they try for a Kiwi one this time not a cover of some else?
If there is a spot for requests, mine is to convert Black Sheep by Gin Wigmore, if only for the lineOnce you go black, you never go back
I'm a black sheep (changed to freak?)I wasn't born a beauty queen but I'm okay with that
Maybe radio won't mind if I sing a little flat
I wear my boots to bed, hang a fern up on the wall
To save me from a shallow break who wants to take us all -

True, in 2015 they chose an Ed Sheeran number.

Who's 'they' - I don't remember an All Blacks 2015 song, and I was there for half of it

I think you may be colourblind.

They is the press. Official or unofficial, I see Fire was cited as the All Black RWC 2015 anthem overseas, and local press should have known better

Am is extremely overrated, a very average defender who had a few very good runs on attack, don't think Esterhuizen is any worse. De Jager is decent, but the Boks have enough good locks, I reckon. Pollard is going to bite them in the ass, because they don't seem to have a kicker and just a bunch of full backs masquerading as first fives.

I doubt they find a centre who chews gum as well as Am. Big loss.
