That in itself is the problem. They have not looked great but they have not lost.

Yeah, why not. The 47 thing was tongue-in-cheek also because of the crime here. More to the rugby though we should focus - said Yoda.

In all honesty and seriousness, I feel for all New Zealanders today from my heart. I love your people and I have deep respect for the handful of kiwis I have met in my life. Always gentlemen and I sincerely believe the All Blacks gave it their all and this would have stung deeper than most...

To be fair, The world all over has called for a stance to the haka, but when it is enforced it's ludicrous apparently and supposedly severely "disrespectful". Fuck that. The Haka is not rugby, so do in that time what you like I reckon. Go and surround them war cry folk with battle cries...

I don't see why a response would not be allowed. Screw the officials in that regard because the haka is not rugby, it his something that happens before a rugby match. They have no say over it and it is by the grace of the rest of the world that NZ are allowed their little dance. Whether it be...

Yeah, Farrel is the guy everyone loves to hate. He must be a special player. Itoje is another great player, and he is only 24! Feels like he's been around for ages.

Yes, indeed so, I also noticed that. It resembles a certain defensive system from 2007, albeit better than that now. I paid much attention to the English defense in the wider channels and it was sublime!

You're being somewhat harsh without recognising the English at all. They were magnificent and I'd be very, very surprised if they did not win the cup. The All Blacks lost the forward battle this time, and decisively so. From ruck to scrum to lineout to collisions. They lost everything. No...

Well, I had said on The Roar I expect England to win. Did not think they would be that dominant though. It is a lose-lose for Wales or SA. Whoever loses between the two have to play NZ with a backlash and whoever wins have to play the team that just bullied NZ.

Some words from Rassie to Saffas at home http://ulrichh.com/temp/rassie.mp4

Wales will be all too happy Kolbe is not there, I feel they may underestimate Nkosi so I tip him to have a good day. Welsh back row to learn what it's like to face an in-form PSdT. Kolisi finally getting up to speed as well. Personally I would have liked Steyn at 15 even if just for the...

I feel for you guys. I suspect that's the end of Cheika?

Yeah mate, I'd like for you to take that pragmatic approach in a Saffa fan's shoes. Take 2015 into account. What happens to Japan is irrelevant, if they get beaten by 20 or 50 I won't feel any shame on their behalf. We have endured enough shame as Saffas from that humiliation. My reasoning...

Pissed punters are the worst, especially in SA. There's always that one negative tnuc!

I have a feeling Japan might pull an Italy v England type of thing as per a couple of years ago.

NZ looked patchy during 2015 pool stage as well and then turned up the heat come K/O games. They will be fine. Ireland have a huge monkey on their back and I don't imagine they will shake it against the reigning champs, especially not after their indifferent form this year and the knock...
