    Why didn't you just mention "super city" rates as well as Garces and the cricket world cup rules and, and, and,...You would see the mushroom cloud from Whangarei.

    I am now going to go and break things anyway.

      @Snowy in this day and age of pro refs I think home town bias is overstated. Endless replay, TMO and numerous camera angles means you can't get away with SA level cheating anymore

      @canefan The South African refs are clearly biased.

        France appoint Shaun Edwards as defence coach

        The French Rugby Federation have announced that Shaun Edwards will join France head coach Fabien Galthie’s backroom staff as the new defence coach.
        
        Edwards stepped down from his position as Wales defence coach at the end of the recent Rugby World Cup in Japan after occupying that role for 11 years.
        
        Edwards will now work with Galthie, who has taken over Les Bleus’ coaching reins from Jacques Brunel, who stepped down after France suffered a 20-19 defeat to Wales in their World Cup quarter-final.
        
        Galthie was already confirmed as Brunel’s long-term replacement in April.

          @Stargazer If Edwards can beat the head coach with a stick evey time he tries to completely vary the 23, Frnce could do well going forward

            Both Jonathan Davies and Rhys Patchell out of the 6N injured.

            Hopefully Jarrod Evans gets his chance.

              I'm assuming that's in jest.
              Otherwise that's the most hackneyed fishing attempt of the year.

                  Simon Mannix left Pau in April of this year after yet another poor performance of the club. Last week, it was announced that he'll be the new head coach of ... all national teams of Singapore.

                    @Stargazer Surely that has to be the easiest job going. Ranked 55th in the world. No expectation for them to ever be any good. 12000 registered players.

                      @Magpie_in_aus To the contrary, if the goal is to improve all the teams, I'd say that makes it a difficult job. Exactly because there are not many players to pick from.

                        Wales coach Wayne Pivac has named New Zealand-born backs Johnny McNicholl and Willis Halaholo in his first squad.

                        No doubt we will see James Lowe lining out for Ireland eventually too.

                              I say this without knowing the players and knowing the rules but it just doesn’t sit right to me. Not knocking Wales here, we’re guilty the right side of the river too. I have no problem with the Faletau’s and Vunipola’s but three years at these ages is just wrong to me. There’s a world of difference between 3 years at 15 and say early 20’s. Worse still is the parachuting of players like Shields. And yeah, I know this has been done to death in here. ☹️

                                    Their childhood dream was to play international rugby for the ABs I'm sure.

                                    They weren't good enough, so playing against the ABs is the next best thing.

                                      I thought it was 5 years now, have they been over there for 5? Or are they the last of the 3 yearers?

                                        Wales coach Wayne Pivac has named New Zealand-born backs Johnny McNicholl and Willis Halaholo in his first squad.

                                        No doubt we will see James Lowe lining out for Ireland eventually too.

                                          They've earned it

                                          I say this without knowing the players and knowing the rules but it just doesn’t sit right to me. Not knocking Wales here, we’re guilty the right side of the river too. I have no problem with the Faletau’s and Vunipola’s but three years at these ages is just wrong to me. There’s a world of difference between 3 years at 15 and say early 20’s. Worse still is the parachuting of players like Shields. And yeah, I know this has been done to death in here. ☹️
