Mark - he did not look and never had a man there from the off.

RR - I never met God let alone held his mother

Sinfield now being asked top play hooker and what a clever ball for the try.

Woods and Kear with an excellent assessment of SInfield's contribution unlike moron troll Ramrod pushing his agenda.

it was a pre planned move but intended target got knocked to the floor in back play. Would have worked a treat

Ramrod talks crap as per usual

You sound suprised

Nah not really. Nothing changes

What really bothers me about Ramrod is that people might confuse him with me!

Gareth has it right. Sinfield by far our most inventive player - his outside runs and inside pass, and accuracy on long passes is our attacking threat.

Really impressed with Crabtree, who seemed to offload at least half the time he ran. Tomkins was good towards the end, and Ellis and Burgess good too.


We still look disorganised - all our attack and our RHS defence.
Perhaps we're planning on peaking for the next too weeks, can only hope so.

I thought so too. Tomkins is going to get a slating from Smith when the team review that point - he was in the right position to make that run, and just didn't.

Sinny’s pass for the Burgess try was sublime.

Tomkins was overawed in the first half but I have to say he was much better in the 2nd half. Obviously somebody told him he had to get his hands on the ball and do something.

I think McGuire has played himself out of a jersey. He was terrible.

There were positives in the 2nd half. I thought they put the cue on the rack and Ganson gave us a few piggy backs but overall something to build on. Smith will have to stop these slow starts though because the Kiwis are just as good and we run away early if we're not on our game.

I just dread what might be waiting for us in the final if we make it.
