Argentina v All Blacks

@Yeahtheboys said in Argentina v All Blacks:
Jordie Barrett finally moving to 12 could potentially be the winning of this World Cup. The options he offers our attack and his defence will be the difference in the big games.
All blacks should be doing a 6-2 split on the bench with all the versatility in the backline of everyone playing heaps of positions. Just one normal back to cover injuries and a lot of short hard impacts in the forwards
Something that was obvious to some of us years ago....

The naysayers also saw his poor super season as further proof of his lack of suitability in the position. I pointed to the fact that the canes never deployed him in a conventional 10-12-13 axis, preferring to have forwards running in the backline

How much trouble is Cane going to be in for this? https://twitter.com/AndrewGourdie/status/1677877074122670081?s=19

Fucker got what he deserved. Should have shoulder charged like Nonu did to one a few years back. Could have hurt his leg like that!

I'm all for playing stupid games, win stupid prizes. But he will face some strong consequences for this.

Why the fuck should Sam Cane apologise?
If anything, he should apologise to the world for only kicking him and not doing more
If you invade the pitch at a sporting match your right to be treated with human decency is revoked while you’re there. Good man Sam.

@SouthernMann Hopefully just a slap on the wrist.
The pitch invader will probably bleat a bit and maybe threaten a lawsuit like dickheads tend to. But hopefully it will get brushed away.

He should get a life ban from attending games

Why? It's generally accepted here that you don't post spoilers.
I think it's impossible to have a hard rule about that. It changes from match to match. In general if you're in a live match thread you shouldn't be surprised if you see another result or hints about the other games. Particularly after full time
When there's two NPC games played at the same time, it's more of a rule
With a game like this, AB's early in the morning and the Saffa/Aussie game overnight, posting about the other game should probably wait until a bit later
I deleted a couple of posts that were talking only about the Aussie/Saffa result as this game kicked off. It spoiled the result for me but I wasn't surprised I saw it in this thread

Could we not have a rule that you can only post about matches in their own thread.?How I try and do it, so as not to spoil it for others.

Not a good look though for Cane if that idiot fell and severely injured himself big law suit/criminal charges laid..
Idiot got what he deserved but I wonder what WR will make of it.@Chris said in Argentina v All Blacks:

I thought he just stuck out a foot to trip him? Not legal in rugby but fine for pitch invaders

Look again. It was a nice kick. Argentinian football fans should appreciate that

@African-Monkey said in Argentina v All Blacks:
@Nepia Yeah he was solid. A 7 out of 10 performance for me. The commentators made out like it was prime Kaino out there which it wasn't, but he did a decent enough job.
I reckon Fozzie and Ryan will be delighted with Frizell.
He was doing exactly what I think he's picked for - providing a tall and effective third lineout option, making his tackles and trucking the ball up one off the ruck and securely recycling. Got himself around the park and a few nice little touches e.g. in the first try, as well.

Hey TJ. The trick now is to see if he can do it again.

People are so defeated on the “fuck Sam cane” bandwagon they’re trying to make a deal about this? Really?
@Yeahtheboys Yeah pretty much. He played well so they now have to find something else to bring him down.
