RWC QF: All Blacks v Ireland

forgive my studied ignorance but is it allowable to send the ABs out on the field but swap Rieko and Leicester? That would mess with Irish plans!

Hah fuck imagine the howls from those that said Rieko isn't a centres arsehole because he has no vision and doesn't/can't pass, when they're confronted with someone who just passes to random places on the field.

Mark Telea is a tool for breaking curfew.
As were Israel Dagg and Cory Jane days before 2011 RWC Quarterfinal. The difference was they weren't dropped.
Except they never actually broke the rules, it just wasn't a good look. There was no policy on drinking, not was there a curfew in effect at that time. In addition the leadership group make these calls, not Foster, unless he has changed things

I call bullshit. Why do you say this? Because that's what they did over a decade ago or you actually know somehow?
How retarded would a coach have to be to let the "senior leadership" to select the team for the biggest game of his career.
Oh yeah, maybe you're right.

Optimism levels greatly reduced due to inclusion of Ginga.
TBH, as stupid was that is, it won't be with winning or losing of the game. It'll be foster sticking with pretty much the same tactics, esp on defence, for years. It'll be not learning the 'learnings' 🤮. It'll be lack of leadership when it gets tight. It'll be the lack of discipline when our stupid short kicking game puts us under relentless pressure. It'll be the lack of nous when it comes to pushing and working the ref.

On a roll fella, bull puckey again! Smith goes down before 50 minutes and we're absolutely rotisseried. We'd at least have a chance if Roigard was there to take over.

Well that is true, but if he doesn't go down (which is much much more likely) then it won't matter that much. Unless it does cos we are close and no way is ginger going to help

Saw the team named earlier, so grabbed some popcorn and settled into some Ferning this evening. It hasn't disappointed so far. Fucking hell that's some build up to the quarter.
Also, fucking Christie? What the fuck? Make me look like an idiot praising you for the introduction of Roigard (which has been good TBF), but to go back to Christie at the last minute? That makes absolutely zero sense.
Oh, and boy will the Irish be pleased to see LF on the wing again. They had some fun with him last time.
Yeah, go the fucking ABs, but fuck me we are not helping ourselves with sections like this.

Always a fun part of the day when @Bones wakes up and throws out a flurry of posts from the shitter before he’s had his first coffee

@voodoo that flurry was after getting back from aaaaaaabsolutely smashing tin, then sitting down for a coffee. Because I can do whatever the fuck I want and leave my house without any responsibility.

The Irish just need to place a disabled airport toilet next to the pitch to prove you wrong ...

Glad to hear it. My comment was a general one, not aimed at anyone here as I don't know anyone.

I suggest the workout threads and getting down to Bunnings.

I'm not happy about Christie, Telea.
However I am really worried snd concerned about Tamaiti Williams on the bench. We should be picking experience on the bench, not a rookie.

I'd be much happier with Ofa.
