    It pleases me that these cretins control rugby and refs do what we tell them to. That must be a great mindset to go into a game with.

      The myth retired ages ago, back to his farm.

        its weird , they talk about ending myths and auras , but by doing that , they are acknowledging , in their minds the myths and auras exist ,

        No need to be afraid of the bogey man if you dont believe he exists

              Guscott and Healey would have to be the laziest and least interesting ex-player columnists. Just phone-it-in levels of effort. End up with cliches.

                According to the Tom Fordyce of the BBC, Aura has been "clipped away" after defeat in Dublin.

                https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/46250489

                Perhaps she enjoyed the local Guinness and hospitality a bit too much?

                  Fordyce is correct. She had hair below her shoulders when I saw her at Twickenham last week.

                    Read knows Aura and her buddy Mana are still attractive to young All Blacks ...

                    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=12165261

                    "The pressures of social media is real, that is another part of this whole puzzle you have got to grasp with these guys. It can be tough but it is also pretty rewarding because you can see what it means to them all and in terms of the black jersey, it hasn't lost any of its aura and mana. Everyone is playing for the right reasons."

                      A big win against a side that holds a Tier One status it scarcely deserves is not reason to shout from the rooftops that the All Blacks are back in rugby paradise with a restored aura of infallibility.

                          Guardian journo wants to steal some aura for the wallabies by using Thorn as coach

                          "Queensland Reds head coach Brad Thorn should coach the Wallabies forwards and defence – and bring a certain aura to the team."

                            @machpants No. She had a fling with a leprechaun, but soon saw the error of her ways, and can't help herself whoring after the good guys in black once again. Red is not her colour.

                                @machpants i would prefer they worked on their skill levels, their physicality, and finding a bit of form.

                                But yea, they can look for aura a bit too. She's probably on abeach on the Coromandel for the summer.

                                        Yep. She is a keeper.

                                        Try to tell me that other teams still don't feel like they will lose to the ABs. Ireland may have some confidence but I still wouldn't back them, even at home in a re match.
