Beaudy's intercept passes are a technical weakness.
Instead of looking straight ahead with his peripheral vision covering an arc of 120 to 150 degrees straight in front of himself, he is looking backwards towards his backline with a big blind spot on his open side, throwing big loopy passes and getting picked off.
Should be solvable but I'm thinking this is pointing towards Mo'unga @ 10 and BB at 15 in Japan being the way forward, Mo'unga more direct, like Cruden. BFA on one wing.
Why is it that the maul is pretty much anathema to NZ Super rugby and All Black teams.
Down there with the drop goal.
ABs have never been good at the maul.
I love a good maul, an art form, very hard to stop when done well.
Some interesting markets from the NZ TAB as to who will start the opening match of the RWC in each position.
These went up about a week ago, I was overseas so couldn't bet, George Bridge opened at 12, now paying 6, the 12 was very good value, not sure about the 6.

Anything could happen between now and the first game of the cup, injuries could stop one of the nailed on starters.
Owen Franks at 1.22 looks short to me.
Akira fluffers can get on at 17 
Trainer of the 90/1 shot has a string of drug charges against him as long as your arm

Where was this hypothetical market posted?
I'd be piling into Schmidt and Gatland at those prices.
Lay Fossie till your nose bleeds at evens.
I'm interested to know what is peak Fossie, what is his best achievement as a coach?
Some good stuff on Wikipedia about two of the candidates here.
Foster is widely touted as the greatest New Zealand rugby player to never have played for the All Blacks.
Scott Robertson (born 21 August 1974) is a New Zealand rugby union coach, former player and professional breakdancer.
ABs paying about 2.3 on Betfair to win the World Cup. Warm favourite.
Ireland next best.
Schmidt is the chosen one for sure.
And they all want to coach the ABs 
I went for Whitelock, BBR and Crotty.
On reflection Read should be in the three, his general play was solid, captaincy was very good.
The call to go for the try rather than the three points in last five minutes of the first half was crucial, fortune favours the brave but what could have been 15-3 at halftime became 15-10.
Big balls!
@mariner4life said in Rough tips and other bets...:
and they smacked him with a pretty decent ban as well.
They threw the book at Bowman, three charges and about a month holiday.
McEvoy also got a $3k fine for excessive whip use
@jk said in Rough tips and other bets...:
Hope you have collected it @infidel pre posting that. Seen people post barcodes before and then go to collect and someone has already collected it for them!
Money is in the bank, always good to get a cheque from the TAB.
Good point re the bar code!
Great ride by McEvoy to win the race, huge finish.
Bowman weighed in 1kg overweight which may have cost him the race.
Went ok here, very juicy collect on Caulfield Cup/ Melbourne Cup double, giddyup 
@booboo said in [Japan vs All Blacks]
Oh piss off. ABs by fiddy.
Agree with this.
All the worrywarts in this thread, ABs or NZ A or whatever are paying 1.02 on Betfair to win this game.
That is an attacking backline and solid forward pack, barring catastrophic early injury to Mo'unga, I'm picking a one sided affair.
Withhold running in the Geelong Cup today.
Melbourne Cup price will shorten from 15 if he wins in Geelong.
@jk Big win. V happy he held on.
I have Caulfield/Melbourne Cup doubles going with Best Solution, Red Verdon, Sound Check and Sole Impact.
Just watched the Guineas - wow.
MacDonald was apologising for the ride after the race, three wide all the way and brained them. Superstar!
People are saying best 3 yo in 10 years.
Would love to see him in the Cox Plate, wonder if Waller will run him? 
The CliffsofMoher, another of Lloyd's runners, had a nice practice run in the Caulfield Stakes.
Yucatan in to $11 for the Melbourne Cup after the unbelievable win in the Herbert Power, absolutely towelled the field.
Scott McLeod isn't responsible for the players missing tackles.....
