Posted in: Eddie Jones wants Japan to be fastest rugby team in the world See in context

I used to think Eddie was a blokes bloke: beer,horse racing and rugby...now he has no respect in all 4 corners of the globe... For the love of god, why does JRFU have to hire outside the country!?

Firstly Congrats to the Bokke, deserved winners, not blaming Barnes but TMO really has too much influence these days, going back 5,6,7 phases to pick up a knock on? Worthy winners but what a crap game to watch, if IRB serious about head contact, make headgear mandatory and review the card process.

Well I'm still hungover from last weekend which pretty much was the Double Final of the world cup, cant see England winning tomorrow and its going to be who gets four trophies on their jersey sleeve...SH either way, great to see the blackness and the Bokke sticking it up the Six nations pretenders.

It's do or die for Ian Foster, his last game? or just the beginning of finals footy for him and the ABs, It'll be a cracker for sure and perhaps the Blackness will get up for this one like their lives depend on it but ideally I would love to see the Irish or France get a share of the spoils, as long as the Saffas don't get 2023 on their shirt sleeves, be sweet as..

They do have a way about them down South. It's kind of endearing actually.

Posted in: Japan to play All Blacks in Tokyo in October See in context

This could be a good chance for Japan to get the score to a respectable outcome if things keep going the way the are with AB results and predictably…Not looking forward to the Northern Hemisphere tour one iota but is needed to blood new players…Maybe Ian Fosters masterplan for next year fooling everyone into thinking the blackness have lost their mojo ( Or they just have :) )

Hard being an ABS fan these days, the rest off the world has figured out the playbook and NZ not coming up with ideas..The Irish got it quickly, just smother the first receiver from a fairly onside position and shut down the backs...

Let the Public Enquiry begin!!

My favourite is the pedestrian crossing waiting game. I've had numerous occasions where I've waited to cross to my sons kindergarten on a busy road, at a pedestrian crossing, hand up in the air ,usually around the 20th car will stop...

On the other hand,my friend was fined for not stopping at a pedestrian crossing recently ,where a woman was waiting, with the police standing next to her ready to pounce on this kind of perpetrator, first time I've ever heard of that.. This place does my head in sometimes..

Its been a long long road for the Rugby Championship teams, on the road for an extended amount of time and in travel bubbles- Im sure the Argies, SA, Oz and the All Blacks will be glad to hit the Sth Hemisphere summer soon...Well done to the Northern teams...

And to add to my previous comments, people talk about Rugby mercenaries..Well check the player roster for yesterday's game and although not as bad as Scotland or Japan..you will find several Kiwis fast tracked into the Ireland squad to bolster their team.. James Lowe was turning out for the Chiefs and even the Maori All Blacks not so long ago, couldn't get into the big time and boom, he's an Irishman now in less than a year! Maybe Im a Sore loser..yeah nah yeah...

I think the Haka being a "Funny Dance" is both disrespectful and ignorant. If you were to visit my local Marae in New Zealand and be greeted with a Powhiri and experience a Haka, would you laugh at that too??

Maybe Fiji, Samoa & Tonga should stop their funny dances too??

Any international company that hasn't moved out of that dump doesn't deserve any sympathy for what will happen to them.

That's a bit rough, fair nuff international companies not getting out but labelling HK a dump is a bit heavy handed for HongKongers still there busting theire bums off working for those international companies..

Nz beats Italy 47-9 and its their worst game of the season according to the scribes and I concur, bit of a shambles.

SA just beat Wales and Ireland blow Japan off the park...Next week should be the Litmus test for the Abs v Ireland but shame Abs couldn't play the poms!

It's embarrassing, I'm getting emails from New Zealand saying "Hey that guy went to school with my son at Otago Boys High School and he's turning out for Japan"... Jamie Joseph has stated that to be competitive Japan needs bigger players to compete but c'mon, now it's not Just Top League where you can earn your pension, it's also at international level...

Aotearoa relies heavily on tourism and needs that sector to stimulate the economy. Even mainstay farming has been hit hard because of the shortage of foreign workers coming into help out. Like Akula said, the mandate is to get to 80% then get people thru the turnstiles..
