Super Rugby Pacific performers of the week for round 11

Codie Taylor is not going to “miss out”. He is a complete certainty. Did you not read my first comment ? He is in great form and is a true leader in the All Blacks and Crusaders outfits. My point about Ioane Moananu is that his play this year for the Crusaders has put himself very much in the AB discussion. You cannot play like Ioane has and be completely ignored. Aumua was not playing the house down until recently any way. What you want is discussion and competition for places.

'Rugby is kind of at a junction here': Henry Pollock on rugby values

Well yes I agree - but a team is made of individuals and those individuals can be judged as good/bad to watch on the basis of how they function as part of a team.


But yeah, what he said is ludicrous. I just don’t think his showboating was especially egregious.

It’s Because Reko is not center Material he is a wing. Put him on the wing I think he will be better suited for that position.

Why the Brumbies are still the best team in Australia

Apologies for this delayed response, Carlos. For some reason I had difficulty finding this article again. There are so many poignant stories like that of your 19 year old relative. What a waste of life that war was, indeed any war is. I had only one relative, an uncle, involved at the Western Front. He was injured at the battle of the Somme, but survived to live on into his 80’s.


I can remember my father talking of the villages in his home area of Ulster, where every single house in some had lost someone on the first day of the battle of the Somme. And a few years ago we were visiting friends in a little town in N. NSW, Walgett. They were saying that the town really never recovered from losing so many young men in WW1.


It must have been so moving for you to visit the W. Front area, and to stand at the grave of the young man who died so young, and now so long ago.

Looking forward to seeing how he progresses over the next few years. I can see his strengths in open play, but ultimately Props are remembered for their scrum game. Hope he doesn't lose sight of that.

No argument there. Ioanes proper position is as a winger whereas as Proctor is a fine centre who does know how to offload. Only problem with that is that AB selectors are a conservative bunch who don’t like to change too much.

'Rugby is kind of at a junction here': Henry Pollock on rugby values

I suppose teams are tight for cash. But the heart of rugby is surely what a great team game it is. I’ve read a few US posters who have said the attraction is the teamwork, fairplay and mutual respect. Its the same in developing countries like Portugal/Belgium/Spain etc where the fanatical base are into the game itself. That’s what a sport should be. Again it maybe that professional teams feeling the cosh have no choice but to make money making king.


What Pollock said is ludicrous: I shouldn’t watch the Leinster/Northhampton match because I dont like his showboating? I actually don’t mind that mistake. Thats just a young man saying something in error.

Is the All Blacks captaincy right for Scott Barrett?

In today’s digital age, scams in the crypto space are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Even experienced users can be deceived by what appear to be legitimate update prompts or wallet notifications.In my case, it all started with what looked like a routine wallet update notification. I received an email that appeared to come from the official source of my XRP wallet provider. It was well-crafted, complete with the company's branding, tone, and even security warnings urging users to act quickly to prevent potential vulnerabilities. The message informed me that a mandatory security update was required to continue using the wallet, with a direct link to download the latest version.Wanting to stay ahead on security and seeing no red flags at first glance, I clicked the link and followed the update process. The website I was taken to was a near-perfect replica of the actual wallet site same layout, same logos, and even a live chat box that appeared to respond like a real support agent. It asked me to enter my wallet credentials, including my recovery phrase, under the guise of syncing my existing wallet to the new version. Trusting that this was a legitimate procedure, I complied.Within minutes, my wallet was drained.I refreshed my wallet balance out of instinct and watched in real time as my 650K XRP disappeared, transferred through a series of unknown addresses. The sickening realization hit: I had been tricked into handing over access to my assets. The email, the website, the entire update process it was all part of a well-coordinated phishing scam. After the initial shock, I began researching recovery options and came across TRUST GEEKS HACK EXPERT WebSite https://trustgeekshackexpert.com/ , a firm that specializes in tracing and recovering stolen cryptocurrency. Their team is well-versed in the intricacies of blockchain technology and has a strong track record of helping victims reclaim their digital assets. From the moment I contacted them, their professionalism and confidence gave me a glimmer of hope in an otherwise bleak situation.They began by meticulously tracking the movement of my XRP across multiple wallets and exchanges. XRP poses unique challenges for traceability due to its blockchain structure, which while public is difficult to interpret without specialized tools and experience. Most recovery firms might have declared the situation a lost cause, but TRUST GEEKS HACK EXPERT leveraged their expertise, contacts, and timing to turn the situation around. In the end, they successfully recovered a significant portion of my stolen funds, TRUST GEEKS HACK EXPERT support team is available WebSite. www://trustgeekshackexpert.com/ (E-mail: Trustgeekshackexpert @ fastservice . com) (TeleGram.Trustgeekshackexpert)

Irish provinces in danger of being left further behind, in their own country

I wouldn't be so arrogant in my assessment of Leinster's chances. While a good side, they have fallen every year by the wayside due to the Bulls. 4th URC season. In 3 of those the Bulls knocked Leinster out. As a matter of fact, the Bulls have won the most games against Leinster. They played 6 times against each other now. It's now 4 to 2 in the Bulls favour. Dismiss the Bulls at your own peril and arrogance, and keep crying when they lose again. The Bulls biggest competition isn't Leinster. At its strongest the Bulls beat them twice with a full Irish international squad against them. Leinster beat the Bulls twice. Their second string in both games. They haven't managed to beat a full strength Bulls team yet. And next year 3 more Boks join the Bulls. Handre Pollard included. No, the Bulls biggest challenge is an SA side like the Stormers or Sharks.

Fair. It's still a factor though if it's a winner take all league, potentially dropping 8-10 points over 2 games where half your first team is missing is a still a big deal.

Irish provinces in danger of being left further behind, in their own country

Everything you say I agree with except that the SA sides are underdogs. The Bulls are Leinster's bogey team. They have beaten a full Irish team parading as a club team twice. They have beaten their second string team, the future of Leinster. Leinster end top each season, and it's an SA side that axe them every year. The log is purely for weeding out weaker teams. Top of the log doesn't give you a title, only advantage and Leinster just like the Irish international team is chokers in knock out rugby these days. The reason for the choking is unknown because they have some excellent players, but my suspicion is arrogance. They think they are the best in the world. They can't win a club competition, not a world cup. Coaches can only do so much. It's up to the players to perform and they just don't. That is why they are a laughing stock, and they shouldn't be. Not with the quality they have. In short, Leinster is overrated. Their biggest fear is to face the Bulls before the Finals of the URC. This is the 4th season of the URC. Bulls knocked out Leinster in 2 semi finals and a quarter final.
