@Derm-McCrum said in RWC: All Blacks v Italy (Cancelled) (Pool
:From Daily Telegraph
In a development that seems sure to cloud the rest of the tournament and have ramifications way into the future, insiders claim that the match between the All Blacks and Italy could have been postponed until Monday, but that the All Blacks were not willing to consider a turnaround of just five days between their final pool game and their quarter-final, which is due to be played on Saturday 19th October.
As expected WR have proven the British press and Brian Moore are once again full of shit . Unfortunately a decent amount of “ neutrals “ will carry on believing what Moore etc said despite any amount of evidence to the contrary .

Of course they would...they do what NZR say!!
World Rugby has refuted reports that the All Blacks turned down the chance to play their final Rugby World Cup pool match against Italy on Monday.

To be fair, he’s usually quite balanced. His sources lack credibility since the world rugby statement but I doubt he would have pulled this from his arse.
This smells like somebody (his source?) proposed it, NZ said not a fan and then works rugby said no that wouldn’t work anyway.
Pretty easy to create a biased slant either way from that.

Disagree that he’s balanced and so would Adam Thomsen .
That’s a pretty big call to start spreading on social media when you don’t actually have any proof . You just know the fuckwits that accuse us of poaching and having an undue influence over wr are going to lap it up and will never believe he’s talking out of his arse .

:Not sure what Adam Thomson has to do with this ...
I’ve engaged with him on twitter and met him at a Wimbledon food festival last year. He’s alright ... for a lefty.
It was a while ago but still pretty bad that Gosper forgot who’s actually in charge of World rugby and listened to Moore
https://www.rte.ie/sport/rugby/2012/1114/345711-thomson-ban-may-be-extended-by-irb/Also he’s a lawyer isn’t he? That’s worse than being a lefty

I’ve mentioned before what a petty small minded man when it comes to the abs and their various nemesis.
