Yeah, loved his assertion that not only were the AB forwards offside all night, but that they were ALL offside all night so it didn't look so obvious.

I hate Kearns with a passion and get sick of his biased opinions.

Especially noticeable when they had a graphic up with the NZ props 3 boring in and showed the arrow to show by how much.

He did not comment that the arrow was at 45 degrees and happened to be the same angle of the feed by Genia.

He is a disgrace as a commentator and I am still yet to find any redeeming qualities.

Does anyone actually find him funny? My guess is that people laugh at him.

Jeff Wilson gets the gong this week for the presentation of the Bledisloe Cap .... Honourable mention to the King of unbiased commentary Phil Kearns who if he had a yacht should call it "Mediocrity"

The Tears of Phil Kearns. At Night.

--National Geographic--

Once night falls, The Tears of Phil Kearns magically morph to assume even greater biblical mystical powers than they possess during the daytime.

Just one single solitary tear, rubbed lovingly by a foreigner at night upon his tiny little wee extradited plaintiff, has been scientifically proven to:

• guarantee an enormous financial windfall for the foreigner in the very next lottery.
• make the foreigner smell a bit less funny. (for a week or two)
• make the foreigner slightly less foreign. (for a day or two)

The Tears of Phil Kearns.

Seen below for the first time at night.

"Yay though The Tears of Phil shall, by day, wend a golden rivuleted trench through the land of Wollongong, by night, that same trench shall glow forth with a volcanic torrent of unspeakably delicious butthurt" said the Bible. The Night Version of the Bible.

These tears at night, enriched by the lunatic moon, contain such vibrant properties for the foreigner that, frankly, if he or she were to rub them directly into their OWN eyes, they would not be able to see straight for minutes on end due to the giddying pleasure of science and tears.


The Kearns Boil. At Night.

A pooling so powerful that even typing out descriptors for its omnipotence will simply cause the words to disintegr



The secret of the foreigner Richard Mccaw’s mystical prowess on the rugby field?

Mccaw, photographed here at night, in his All Blacks office, rubbing The Tears of Phil Kearns directly onto his tiny little drill bit. Until it shines.

Benn Robinson should have been wearing an Eagles jersey on Saturday while commentating on the Eagles V Rising. Doubt that I have heard any one more biased than him! At 32 minutes he said the Eagles had been dominating for the last 30 minutes - the Rising were 16-0 up in the first 15 minutes!!

If we lose tonight I'm blaming @Dismal Pillock for mocking the Goddess of Random Rugby Results aka GRRR (again!) & if we win I'm glad I'll be here in SEQ where we'll get enough warning of the incoming tsunami for wifey to haul my drunk kiwi ass up into the high country, Toowoomba should be far enough :)

bit surprised at results of this SA online pole visa visa Best Commentator:

41 % Hugh Bladen
6 % Joel Stransky
9 % Kobus Wiese
8 % Matthew Pearce

Thought Stransky would be miles ahead. Personally, I cant stand him. He's all impartial and jovial until the very first second his boys are under the kosh then that goes right out the fucken window.

On a non-rugby note, did you see the pictures of Joel a day or two ago after his bicycle crash? Bigger mess than he ever finished a rugby game.:)

Bloody Greg Clarke, still going on and on about trivial statistics ad bloody nauseum.


And the cliches. "He thought he saw a way through there".


Does he ever, ever say anything incisive or original? Does he ever make an expert observation? He talks and talks and says nothing.


No personality, no insights, that's our Greg.

Every match I start out intently listening to his statistics then within 90 seconds the torrential deluge of numbers have coalesced into an impenetrable downpour of statistical diatribery that, for the next 80 minutes, scarcely even registers.

Maaardo might drive me batshit insane but at least he’s raving mad enthusiastic about it. Nesbo these days is like an old pair of fluffy slippers that’ve long since morphed into just part of the furniture. Barely serves any purpose, doesn’t matter what foot you put either on, they’re just there to serve an instantly forgotten function, then promptly forgotten about again.

Still, should cherish our last few AB tests with Nesbo in the booth becuase once he's out to pasture we’ll get Tony Johnstone for his lifetime tenure, him and his raging hard little cantabs drillbit liberally embellished with his patented anti-Blues gloss. Oh joy. Buffing it. Until it shines.
