I think it's extremelygood for the game as a whole to see the All Blacks humbled, particularly at the hands of the newer rugby nations such as Argentina.
Couldn't agree more - though the Corned Beef Creators have been a decent side for some time now. To be fair, Cheika has done wonders for them. He'll be back as Aus coach after the RWC IMHO.
A RWC that the "Blackness" may not even make the Semi's.....

The way the scores have gone so far, it's actually difficult to call.......
I just can't see the "Blackness" losing 2 on the bounce at home and SA's Yellow Card was a big factor in their loss. Who knows though - let's just hope for some cracking rugby!!

WOW! It's been a long time since someone's speech raised the hairs on my neck and made my spine tingle. This guy is good, and I imagine great if doing Shakespeare.

Gloucester v Wasps, Christ what a game! I won't post the result etc. now as I'm sure it will be available on the Premiership site for those who didn't see...... And believe me, it's well worth the watch!!

That was worth the wait - excellent game. Another one worth watching is the Newcastle-Quins game.

Loved to hate the guy - a pain in my arse since I was a teenager. Never forgave him for giving the ball away vs Australia on their "Grand Slam" 1984 tour (reverse pass Eddie), a continual pain in "Voice Overs" for Welsh documentaries...... BUT, always there for rugby, a passionate Welshman...... and a great colleague of Brian Moore in the Commentary Box - who posted this: -
“Ed, I’m sorry I never told you how much I admired you as a broadcaster and as a man. Well, it wasn’t like that between us, was it. Condolences to Sue and your family. Sport has lost an iconic voice. I have lost a very dear friend. Goodbye Edward.”
Thailand hosting the World's School Festival in December. I've seen this in the past and it's a very decent level of rugby - well worth getting there Pete if you can.
