They really are a different breed here Is Rich the worlds toughest man? He's probably the toughest if you take Ma'a out of the equation Memph. On 'Sky' we had to listen to Jeremy Paul talking up 'Ostraya's' chances before the game....and man did he talk a load of dribble! The beauty of them though is that they'll think that the sending off of Mitchell was the difference between the teams, and they'll also point to those tries they scored in the back half of the game when the AB's had switched off to a certain degree. They are, to put it mildly, un-be-lievable! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aussie Union commentators are in a class of their own, they would have to rate as the most bias commentators i have ever listened to. As for Phil Kearns OMFG!

I was watching the Rugby Club on fox the other week and they were discussing how the other 2 teams had a bit of ground to make up on the AB's in regard to next year's WC, Paul chirps up and say's he didn't think there was much to worry about as the AB's tight 5 would be another year older and they were entering Dads Army territory And Cat the Aussie commentators answered one of your quiz Questions last night although they had Henry at 85% Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Phil Kearns OMFG! something in the build up made Marto change from ABz by four to yellow.I wonder what it was? The only one who analizes the game without bias is Rod Kafer and they all give him shiv. Totally agree CT they grasp at the smallest straw even if it is in the middle of a haystack.Most of the AB tries were illegal you know and the WTM is a cheat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less of the stats.....and more trivia!:y: e.g. In the 3rd Test of the 1976 series between South Africa and the AB's, Auckland and All Black 'Great', Peter 'Pole' Whiting, almost had one of his ears ripped from his head in a vicious rucking incident while he was trapped at the bottom of said ruck.

In 1981, prior to the Springbok tour, the AB's played Scotland in two Tests. Andy Haden was not permitted by the NZRFU to play in those Tests due to a conflict of some sort. Who replaced him in the Test Team? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
