If that’s the case Guess the age of 61 should never have been in the sentence.
His age is defiantly the key point.

You can take your pick Colvin between Michael and Eddie for the fourth representing Death.

Should be a good game this weekend Col….

Well played Mr Nonu.
I’m not sure which or whom will have the biggest smile Toulon or Ma’a.
But at 42 the “Medical Joker” sounds about right.

How Tahs failed to make the most of Suaalii's threat - and what they must change to unleash him

FOH, that is exactly, re his head positioning, how I see it except he is looking down.
Eyes up is one of the first things taught to me in rugby.
As a front rower it’s crucial to have your eyes up so you don’t get your head caught on a should when packing.
The same is said for tackling, eyes up so you can protect yourself.
The way he made that tackle he was running as much risk of hurting himself.
Lalomilo was always going to lung for the line to score.

Not only dipping into contact Phil but also in the action of scoring a meat pie.

I agree with a lot of what you have said re going nuts
BUT
An under 10 coach would have said,
“Hunter, what were you thinking, your head should be on the open side (Lalomilo’s right side) and why are you looking at the ground. Eyes up my friend, eyes up. If this was being videoed it might look like you are leading with your head”.
Lalomilo was preparing for the action of scoring and was always going to go in low.

Do we have another wrap coming this week Ben???

All Blacks will suffer the consequences of two senseless Super Rugby selections

I would have to say that WR really don’t care about the welfare as much as they should either.
They just want to be seen acting or doing something.
If they gave a toss, they would have the ball carrier off for HIA straight away.
If it’s deemed bad enough for a card, the flip side is that impacted player should need checked if he wants to or not.

I cannot believe that I agree with Hamish, well at least in some regard.
Barrett and either Mo’unga or McKenzie has never really worked for me consistently.
I’m not sure if the change came from Robertson recognizing it or was it just fact Jordan became available.
Going forward we at least 2 first fives standing up in Godfrey and Jacomb that deserve a chance under the bright lights.
If Barrett’s form continues, I can’t see him being picked other than a spot opening through injury.
I think McKenzie is an excellent bench option for 10 or 15 and playing a mentor roll.

Yes from Gore.
1 game it’s hard to judge but certainly a tick from me.

Yes mate I wish fellas all the best.
Don’t worry about the southern lads playing for the lions. They weren’t good enough in the first place to make it here.
That will get a few tongues wagging 😂 😂 😂

Battle to take on the Lions is heating up - but there's one position that will have Wallabies nervy: Five things we learned

Perspective probably needs to be put into place with this.
Not disregarding your comment Fin, but this is a little bit worse than traffic infringement.
Pretty hard to assume the man next to you will lose respect.
He may think you’re an idiot, but really not much more surely.
The Blues certainly won’t stand him down and think the AB’s would only mention it later and that is if there is someone else in form and maybe make something out of it as publicity stunt.
He will certainly be fined, but eating porridge behind bars would never be on the cards.
I mean it’s not like the media to beat things up 😔

All Blacks star 'extremely apologetic and embarrassed' after admitting evading police, dangerous driving charges

I all for the new guy Dre Pakeho.
These are exactly the sort of games that, given a chance hands go up and gems are found.

The Landers will feel it for sure with EDG going off injured as well.
The last thing we want is to not recover fully from whatever it was and carry it through more games or the rest of the season. MP have a good scrum and could be damaging if we can’t match them.

'Very surprised': Reds cop massive blow as Paisami hit with ban despite not being shown a card for high shot

Personally, cannot wait for the Lions.
I rate the Wallabies chances as I think JS can put this puzzle together.
It will be more about balance than star power.
Wallabies have shown continued improvement in the last year or so and given the egos of the Northerners, will be ripe for the taking.
I am one Kiwi that is 100% behind you fellas, so grab that chair and crack that whip and tame that Beast.

Tupaea is showing good form and long may it continue.
He is just one piece of the center combo that needs fixing, but a welcome start.
I think we will all be looking with great interest at the AB inside and outside centers, including first five this year. 2 games in, is way too early to be making decisions, but recognizing that decisions must be made is key.

Who doesn’t love Monday’s.
This will surely get some of the Aussie fan up and running.

Nice wrap Coke 👍

Who would have thought that torture could ended with such pleasurable sense of relieve.
Maybe that’s a thing, I’m sure others here could give more detail on this subject. 😱

What it tells me JD is that you guys have Mariana Trench type depth.
I have no skin with your mob (other than that Bluff Boy, Woodlands, really) but man I’m enjoying them go about their business 👍

Thanks Geoff in my limited understanding it looked blatant.
The big problem is that MP lost all advantage as it was very early in the second half.
But given how other teams handled numerical advantage they might have lost by 50.

You’re a smooth talker Ankles, welcome aboard the Landers Express. 😛
In all seriousness, do I think the Landers can win it, no, probably not.
Do I think the Landers can hurt a lot of teams, Oh yea I do 👍
But there is always the last and only time the Landers won the whole thing, that was also done with a bunch of hacks and nobodies, so there is always that 😂
