Operation ¼ final now. Not sure how to prepare for Uruguay in a dead rubber.
Not a dead rubber, if Italy beat France

@Billy-Tell We had another dead rubber, this year, and we were shit. I don't want to see that again. Just give some guys game time that won't play in the play-offs, but play like there's something at stake.

Beaver looking 20 kilos heavier than Richie
All the free beer he’s accepted
One of them is a fun dude
One is Richie
In McCaw's book he gives Beaver the highest compliment: "He's a bloody good bugger..."
Come the moment, cometh the man. Ice in his veins when it mattered. Legend.

Nothing wrong with that try.
The guy’s foot was on the touch line before grounding.

Do an inverse one.

Play the same team. Build the combinations.
No need to experiment or give anyone else a run at this stage.

Who partners SB to start? BR or SW?
Not sure it matters. Nice position to be in though.

He’s ok on radio too with his dry humour

Set piece was fucking sick. Pumped their scrum, pinched their lineouts
We contested rucks for 80 fucking minutes. Sam Whitelock was still sticking his hands in at the end
We were good at keeping our ball at the ruck.Those are good things.

ITV is much better - Fitzy, Parise & Wilkinson.

Nice training park hit out against a tier 2 nation, but I'm not sure this is what we needed before a quarterfinal.
Where’s the upside at this point in a difficult game? You lost to France, let the boys build some confidence, let them have some fun, and let’s see what happens next

Feed 'em Fozzie
Relieved? Fuck off.

Uruguay play a niggly spoiling game so not the worst opponent. Near the same 23 i'd say.
