Teams like England, Ireland, Wales wearing non-traditional colours like BLACK... as their alternative strip. You're not the All Blacks ffs.

And France as their home strip, well the deepest of navy blues anyway.

Angus Gardiner.

Fuckin halfbacks getting away with/being allowed to roll the ball half a mile along the ground from the base of the ruck

[broughie]

When they get injured and roll around on the ground.

People stroking themselves about rugby players who dont even play but are apparently going to save NZ rugby single handedly.

I assumed it was Fern rule of membership.

Also, I'm looking forward to Ngatai starring at 10 for us in Japan in 2019.

@mn5 go on about him much less than you and your anti-Ngatai-fetish, given you were the one who alerted me to half his shit peices of scribbling

I know and it triggered a lot of rage in you which is very amusing especially judging by your spelling.

@mn5 well you and Twats are very similar in you both watch fuck all rugby and like to comment on it as if you are the ultimate fan...

Don't be ridiculous. I know I'm no where near the ultimate fan. It's a pastime at best.

I hate reserves warming up behind the deadball line then celebrating their team mate's try in a massive pile-on. You're not part of the game, don't enter the field of play.

That we lost to Ireland.

Pity you won't see it as they won't be showing it in 1996-2004.

Ex front rowers who become commentators that get over excited over fat unco blokes running slowly with the ball

The state of both Australia and South Africa given where they were in the early 00s.

The celebratisation of referees. Referee microphones were great at first because you got a glimpse into the policing of the game, but now it is quite clear that referees are acting out for the benefit of the cameras. That goes from ones we might find entertaining (Owens) and those who are clear numptys (Barnes, Gardner).

Walsh had a reputation for having tickets on himself, but I never felt like he orchestrated contrived captains conferences and unnecessary assistant referee meetings. Much like the "we have a deal", who talks like that if the cameras aren't that?
