One has to wonder how the All Blacks would react if we drew them us as clowns doing the haka.
I wonder if Hansen and his boys would be "bigger than that".
Kiwis more than...
Heartbreaking. Score not representative of the quality of game played by the wobs. Still much to do, especially on the scrambling defence when ABs get gifted ball from wobs turnovers. But then again they do that to everyone.
TMO decision a massive factor in changing the momentum of the game...
Fuck me, better slash the wrists. It's not like we just beat the 3rd best team in the world or anything.
Fundamentally disagree with pretty much all of this. I think it was a really good game of footy with both sides putting each other under immense pressure. We played better and apart from...
Sometimes the other team is just better... You don't see the Boomers dropping Bogut and Mills because they can't ever beat the US!
Changing the team for the sake of it will not solve our issues. I firmly believe the players we have in the team are the best we have to offer, and they are the...
Ease up, there should be 250 GAGR members submitting their CVs to the ARU head office using your logic.
Bit better, still a firm believer that our main issue is Psychological and that stems from the fact that we are both inferior in mind set and the ABs far superior (almost a manifestation of...
I must admit, I am not entirely positive about the likeliness of a W for this game, but I sure as hell hope they put a performance on the field that we can be proud of.
It would be both lazy and foolish to pillory cooper** alone for what was a masterclass from the All Blacks and a final 50 minutes that is reminiscent of the last 13 years of Australian rugby.
I think this is a step back but one that wasn't unexpected so I hope Cheika can get us up for the cup...
Conspiracy theory: satisfied with the 2014 title, Cheika deliberately lost the semi against the highlanders to give the kiwis a false sense of security and provide the wallabies with an extra week of preparation. We will now go on to win the bledisloe back and bill. Cheika = genius
A man can...
A performance worthy of a team that lacks composure, leadership and true "die for your mate" culture all because we have a coach unwilling to let go of an evidently average captain and a bloke who frankly brings SHIT FUCKING ALL to the team besides his behavioural baggage.
We won't be...
How wrong I was. See this thread for the All Black hall of shame!

Happy to admit I was wrong. There are some serious fuck ups in there.
Although it is interesting to note that I can't see anyone with the resume of...
Surely part of Cheika's job is to develop a high performance culture with upstanding and respectable individuals within the Wallabies setup? Whether he likes it or not, that is part of the role of a modern coach. It's a fairly easy comment to make - that he is "employed to produce the best rugby...
