Sumo & Mils on the Gatland v Hansen pseudo-feud

Scotty and Mils reunite to discuss why Warren Gatland is misunderstood, Michael Cheika is misunderstood, and pretty much every coach is misunderstood. Plus they discuss the potential reasoning behind playeers the likes of Brad Shields choosing to head overseas to play footy, and place bets on just how many head knocks there’ll be in the upcoming Wales-All Blacks test.

Southern hemisphere heavyweights to contest World Rugby U20s final

This is going to be a humdinger, so many great match ups across the 23’s, especially at 9. The JABs had a lot of good fortune against the France, they will need to tighten up their defence to win again.


But they know what is required, the U20 TRC final was an unbelievable match, can’t wait!

Mick.

TO quote another French man .

Like a snail going backwards, was Racings boss assessment of Owen after a season .

Ok he was fair at the weekend against a cobbled together and beaten already side.

What happened to the incredulity he had been picked when borthwick said he needed time to nentallly prepare himself again .

.

I would be amazed if he is selected on the bench at such an early stage .

Bok rule-benders are changing the game. They deserve respect

The weakness of the previous coaching setup? Razor's loss win ratio against the Boks is what?zip, zero, nada, nothing, no wins. Two Tests, 2 losses. Struggling against a France C team. And you think the AB's is going to smash the Boks. Despite the scores against weaker opponents, despite the lack of cohesion in both teams, don't be fooled. As always, when these 2 giants meet, it's going to be close. When they play each other, they leave everything on the field, win or lose. I'm not stupid enough to claim victory before the game even kicked off. As a Saffa of course I support my team and want them to win. Despite them having 4 wins in a row over the AB's, that is no guarantee of a next win. Nor is it a guarantee of the Boks losing. That is why you will always cry. Expectations is too high.

Theming is not a job in itself though. If you have 7 other coaches, and all you are doing is theming, you are not adding much. Rassie motivates and themes, but is a proper head coach. The master strategist and tactician. Razor can barely speak..

Well Rassie has 8 coaches & a referee consultant Jaco Peyper & is also more of a themer, innovator himself. Think of them more as leaders, operating an elite team, & where the buck stops.

For any tactical nous TJ lacks he more than makes up for it in knowledge of the players and a genuine love for the game, it’s infectious, really love him.


Agree about the others, there’s a whole lot of strong opinions based on not a lot..

Yes and that was hailed as the best and toughest route to a WC by any team ever. Then to go on and win it in the way they did, set them apart from everyone else. No one will repeat that performance of the Boks, three single point victories in the toughest rugby competition in the world. SA have 4 WC trophies in 2 less WC's. If you want to judge the refs who blown those matches, that was debunked already, showing clear favouritism to the French, English and the AB's. Tried to stop the Boks and it failed. Despite the resistance, the hate, the Boks don't care. They will do what is needed to win. You haven't got a single creative thought not any luck of sense. Your opinions is like a drum full of holes. Fill it to the brim if you can, but you can't. No one cares if you like it or not. Even if WR ban it, do you think Rassie would have nothing up his sleeve?😂😂😂😂😂

C'mon, show some realism. You beat a 14 man Allblacks by one point, were outscored in tries and had to have the TMO interventions to get you home at RWC. A true Clayton's champion if ever there was one. Twickers was a nothing match that again had the one man advantage after some crazy refereeing. Last year the Boks were too good and won it fair and square, we aren't naive. I expect a great battle in NZ but Rassies met his match and can no longer rely on the weaknesses of the previous Allblacks coaching setup.

'I was stunned': Gonzalo Quesada implies Boks needlessly disrepected Italy

I respectfully suggest you go and read the rules Carlos. You are convinced of your own stand on this matter but perhaps you should at least have made sure you were on solid ground legally. There is no such thing as offside at the kick off - only in front of the ball (because no offside line has yet been formed) which is a scrum. But I have sincerely enjoyed my previous exchanges with you so I shall refrain from playing the man instead of the ball.

You may think it's dumb rugby, that's why you are not Rassie. He won the WC didn't he? So it was very successful. Besides, one trick doesn't win a game. A game is 80 minutes. In which they could have scored more points. Maybe kick their conversions faster so it can't be stopped? Blaming it all on one trick. You are a one trick Pony. Whining and crying like Matt Williams. Cry me a river

Chart-topping superstar named to open Women's Rugby World Cup

I have never heard of this “chart topping super star” no doubt due to my age and tastes in music. Why does this site continually refer to Ilana Maher and the USA as if she is the best XVs player in the world. I wouldn’t put a lot of money on her actually making the USA’s starting XV for the Red Roses game.

He got through by the skin of his teeth? You call 11/13 wins, the 2 losses by a single point, skin of his teeth? Tell me, what will people remember? So far the Boks is 3/3, given it's weak opposition, yet still wins. It doesn't matter if you win by 100 or 1 point, a win is a win. You are very confident the AB's will smash the Boks, but the truth is, the AB's players don't think so. They know different. Every Bok or An team from years past until now knows it's going be the toughest 2 Tests of the year. The AB's lost 4 in a row, not due to trying out some of his tricks except for the 7-1 split that worked like a charm at Twickenham when the Boks smashed the AB's, and the 2nd time it didn't come off. Yet the Boks till lead 4-0. It could become 6 wins in a row if the players become as arrogant as you. They have faced these same Boks. They have lost against these same Boks. Now as fans you all decide it should be an Italy type of smashing the Boks. Ridiculous wishing in your Lala land😂😂😂 The double WC champs smashed? They couldn't take revenge during the WC Final. They couldn't beat the Boks during the RC. Forget a smash job. That won't happen. Closely hard fought contests is what it's going to be. Your wishful thinking won't make them win.
