              I always thought he was that guy on the instant kiwi ad, where the kids are sitting the exam and then he's late, the supervisor tells him off then he says "Do you even know who I am" and eats the supervisor's apple.

                @Tim He had the refs whistle from 1908 from AB's VS England and he said "The museum guy was wearing gloves when he brought this In." So this dick picks it up and waves it around like a dick and gives it to another commentator.

                        With the rush defence all the rage the offside line is constantly being bent. Do the AR have the responsibility to enforce this, the ref has enough going on. Just seems sides are right on the edge, that French intercept by pickles was terrible.

                              Come Oct 26, fans of the team who hosts the M10 Cup final (let's say Ta$man based on the point table) will need to decide if they want to support their team or watch a likely RWC SF featuring the ABs. If the kickoff times have been adjusted for daylight savings then the final won't finish until after the SF starts (9 pm NZT). Obviously with streaming you could watch the SF delayed but it won't be live.

                              There are also other clashes with the NZ pool games against Namibia and Italy, the Argentina-England pool game and QF1 (overlapping with SF4 of the M10 Cup). Decisions, decisions if you want to attend the M10 Cup games.

                                @Bovidae You'd hope that the sleepy f*ck who is in charge of running competitions at NZ Rugby will eventually wake up to this, but I wouldn't bet on it.

                                They really don't seem to be able to organize a decent competition for anything!

                                        Someone has to look at their KPIs

                                          @Bovidae You'd hope that the sleepy f*ck who is in charge of running competitions at NZ Rugby will eventually wake up to this, but I wouldn't bet on it.

                                          They really don't seem to be able to organize a decent competition for anything!

                                          @Chris-B NZR will have more flexibility to change the final KO time but not the SF times (3 games are scheduled for that day).
