This Rattue guy is an A Grade Cocksucker
So whiny and sanctimonious on Sevu Reece
I've seen other threads, you aren't a massive fan of the LBGT movement, but there is no need to tarnish all of them with the Rattue brush.
That's crossing a line.
You might want to be careful now Major with your allegation there.....
Cocksucker Meaning - Urban Dictionary:
1:A person that makes your life as hard as possible.
2:A person that will stand in your way, and mess anything up you do.
3:A person that only cares for them self, and no one else!
4:A person that is looking to give one trouble.Good to see you're a full paid up member of the morality police ensuring conformity of opinion & and going after those guilty of wrongthink
Whoosh.

Urban dictionary is a useful place to go for colloquial language - but I can understand it might not be PC for those with a sensitive disposition

Please enlighten me
It's still early in the "morning" & I might be missing out on your sharp and piercing point(s)

Yes
It would be a glorified friendly - trial game for RWC
Including you I’ve only ever encountered two people who considered test matches friendlies. One of them is a loser who lives in Turkey because he can’t return to NZ after stalking a woman for over 20 years . If I was you I’d rethink your stance on friendlies unless you want to get confused with that pathetic clown .
With all due respect I'm not going to reconsder my position based on a unknown guy I've never heard of or met
Los Pumas can't go all out in Summer "Test" matches vs European sides as well as EOYT as well as TRC with their current playing stock
They don't have the cattle
Hence for the Pumas the TRC is the 1st priority
The Summer Tests matches & EOYT mean little in comparison and are more about development and performance
In a RWC year TRC means fuck all as well & serve as warm up games and preparation for the RWC later on in the year
Its pretty rare to find a rugby fan online who hasn't encountered Quentin Poulsen or heard of him. He's the reason a couple of forums had to change their formats in vain attempts to permanently ban him and World Rugby took down their messageboard due to his insanity .
Anyway I'm pretty confident that you're on your own trying to pretend WR sanctioned test matches are friendlies , here's hoping it stays that way because outside of the world cup international soccer is a joke and I hope rugby never ends up like that.

You're not really doing much to persuade me apart from confirming that the guy is a weirdo
Re. my main point about "Test Matches" I stand by my point
Nor every test is of equal importance and value and that is specific to each country
To Los Pumas TRC is what they measure themselves by
Summer Tests & EOYT are of much lower significance and I agree with that notion
In RWC years all bets are off & every game before the RWC starts is a glorified friendly/trial match

Plenty of pressure on both teams in Jo'burg. SA will be fielding an understrength team with 15 players travelling to Wellington early. So a test of the Bok's depth, while Aust have a good chance to get a rare win in SA. On the other hand a loss, while not fatal, would be a blow to the Wallabies with tougher tests to follow.

An easy excuse for both teams. Upside really with the Wallabies if they get a win. It will be interesting given the announced squad what differences we'll see for the men in canary yellow.

So with the first two tests done, they will drop a number of players. Are they reducing the team from 39 to 35?
That would mean they will drop 4 players. Retallick is unavailable for the Bledisloe Cup matches and by Wednesday they'll know whether he'll be available for the RWC.
-1
I don't think they'll drop a prop or hooker yet, esp because Aumua hasn't played yet. But if they drop a prop and/or a hooker, the most likely candidates will IMO be Aumua and one of Moli/Laulala.-2
If Brodie is unavailable for the RWC, they'll probably keep Hemopo. He is the only player who was called up as a utility forward, not Fifita! Alternative: call up Pat T and drop an extra loosie.I think it's more likely they'll drop a loose forward. I think it will be one of the candidate sixes: Fifita, Frizell, Jacobson and Papali'i. Normally, I'd say it would have to be Fifita, but with Brodie out, who knows what they'll do. I don't think they'll drop Frizell. So if they drop a second loosie, it will be one of Jacobson and Papali'i. I don't expect them to drop Todd (yet).
-3
I don't think they'll drop Josh Ioane yet, because he needs to be in the environment for as long as possible, even though he is unlikely to make the RWC squad. I don't see them make a choice between Laumape and SBW yet, so it's probably Ennor who has to go from the midfielders.-4
They're likely to drop an outside back. Jordie is their lovechild, so he wont' get dropped. I think Reece will be the one to get dropped.
