Gats to be AB coach by year end after a horrid string of results by the AB's

First AB coach to win Lions series while still coaching AB's

British and Irish and Maori Lions sweep the Boks!

How many of the Bokke stars will be playing in TRC? A lot will be up north - something people didn't talk about much at the RWC is that Aus and SA brought in a number of stars that really lifted them

@nzzp Bok have ditched the overseas rule, but I'm not sure if that was a special for the RWC. It wil be interesting if anyone get's called back for RC, I remember a while ago Bok players having to fly back to Europe during the bye weeks, even when they didn't play back in Europe - NH Clubs being fluffybunnies

Australian rugby needs a safe space more than an ugly humanities student in the US

Richie Mounga disagrees.

How the fuck are we supposed to knee jerk now? The Highlanders were dog shit then beat the Brumbies who were supposed to be the one Aussie hope. The Sharks have been unreal and now lost to a team that looked fucking hopeless a fortnight ago.

Really all we know are the Chiefs are probably about the best 2nd tier team in World Rugby (and probably now better than Wales) and the Blues suck. Again.

Why are we even bothering with the rest of the competition?

It is sooooooooooo obvious that the four Semi Finalists are going to be the Chiefs, the Crusaders, the Highlanders and the Hurricanes. Fast forward to those.

@mariner4life Nareki to replace Reece. MMT lining up to be Read's replacement.

Beauden to struggle to get a start.

So three games in, we are all good to write off the blues after a 1-2 record?

We’re leaving it a bit late this season to do this....

Everybody wrote the Highlanders off and the blues have lost twice as many games.
