RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks
-
Have a bit of concern with Nepo finishing the game more so from his around the ground work. Have visions of him being stepped around and the Boks scoring match winning points.

Newell got a bit owned off of the bench vs Boks in London and to a lesser degree France opening game.
Given scrum strength for Boks off of the bench Laulala makes sense to me.
Agreed though there are risks both ways - Laulala can be a worry during phase play - though from memory was excellent vs Boks at Mt Smart.

I'm at a family weekend in Kent for the Final. I have a choice of watching it with Mrs M's children and young grandchildren (neither are really all that into rugby) or slinking back to the hotel and watching it on my own.
I'm taking a half-bottle of Single Malt and opting for the hotel room.
Been invited to a kiwi mates bar in Ottawa. I know there'll be some dumb shit Canadians with no skin in the game other than for a wind up. I think I'll stay home and sink the remaining out of date Speights I have. I can't contain the rage but at least I can mitigate who sees it.

90 hours and 11 minutes til kick-off
You're welcome
Wanted how many seconds too. It’s hard to find a good counter-downer on rugby forums these days.

Well, whatever the result, I won't need to turn my phone off like I did in 2003 to stop pricks ringing me up and asking "Did you see the Rugby".

He's a middle aged professional nerd. That's why it has been presented as something sensible and not a tiktok

It's a funny world. It's only a few weeks ago that there was genuine concern we'd lose to Italy. Now we're in the final.

Genuine concern? Maybe from a very small group of doom merchants
