Your absolutely right there Disco. A 33% record in the Tri Nations would leave any All Black coach out of a job.Nine consecutive losses to either Australia,SA or England[oh no not the poms, ever!] would have the coach gone before breakfast.

I'm one of those one eyed Cantabrians. Yet when Deans was passed over for Henry I wasn't too disappointed. The rugby culture in Christchurch has in the past produced many top drawer players and continues to do so post Deans. He inherited a good team and did very well with them but the culture...

Mmm! An Aussie Pom semi? The Poms could play nude or in tutus and they wouldn't get my support.

There is still the opportunity for fringe players to impress during the ITM cup. Some great games in that competition.

And then there is Cory jane and I believe Colin Slade will edge Cruden out.

It will be interesting to see if numbers attending increase in Dunedin. The new all weather stadium should make a difference. We have so many crap grounds over here,ie dual purpose rugby/cricket grounds where as well as freezing your arse off and getting rained on the play is so far away. Many...

Without doubt,the game has never been the same since the ban on rucking.

I was at the match. Brumbies were/are not the well organised side we are used to seeing. Fruen's rundown of AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) was sensational and a highlight of the game.

The ground will be OK by world Cup time,providing we don't get another big shake. And, thankyou Australia for your assistance in our hour of need. Your blokes are doing a fine job.

I think the Canterbury public would sooner see the game played in their own area,rather than having it taken away,either offshore or to Wellington or Queenstown. If a Christchurch ground is unavailable the Timaru or Nelson would be my pick.

Try www.iraqgoals.net Whoops iraqgoals.tv Channel 4. Just had a look and that seems to have shifted sites, Google still brings it up. Some of you clever younger types should be able to track it down.Its beyond my 70 year old abilities. I was able to watch live test matches during the winter...

I always support Oz, except when you play us, I think most NZ''ers do. [ So long as we can poke a bit of stick at each other]

Yes yes! Suspend Donald for six years at least,that was a dangerous tackle. Geez the talkbacks over here are still venting over his performance.

Campo sure wasn't known for his tackling,but he was an exhilarating player to watch, and he always played the game in great spirit,a great ambassador for the game. You guys are welcome to Cooper.

There was nothing uncharacteristic about Donald's errors,he showed us during the last tests they used him in that he appears unable make the step up to test level.

Well done Australia. A win is a win,enjoy the moment. Some exciting running from your backline, particularly the back three. They certainly carved us up at times. The pain isn't too great over here. In a way it's a monkey off both teams backs. Most of the comments here are of the '' we told you...

I don't care what you call our team,so long as it's not "'the loser"'

I doubt very much the NZ public would go for it. Many fans maintain we already play Australia too much. The NPC is a strong local competition which I for one enjoy watching much more than I do the Super 14. And I'm not alone there.
