Rugby & Respect - The Sport We Love

Scotland form a guard of honour for Calcutta Cup and Six Nations winners England

Respect. Beyond the big hits, great tries & the rivalries, lies a fundamental value that shines through all the way from grass roots to the pinnacle of the game. Respect between fans, between players, for officials & for the game. This video sums it up perfectly:

'Won't be a problem': Former teammate weighs in on Mo’unga return

Not sure what you’re trying to say. They only ‘swapped’ around after that period, there was constant flux after 2018 I feel (went from BB and Moun’ga, to BB and Dmac), but yes, not between all three (you can’t really count Dmacs sole test at 10 in 2018 or whatever). Before that period, yes Beaudie did indeed play 34 tests as the starting 10 (Carter was injured for all but the WC).

It’s five years vs 1 year though. Remember you say started at 10, these don’t include Dmac at 15. He’s only played England twice (last year), Richie ofc lost the 19’ semi final, and I’m sure even you can agree the 10 had no influence on that dire performance, then they subbed out Cane and put Ardie at 7 and Richies 20 point lead was scrated out in 10 min when I’m not sure he was even on the field, and then he obviously won the third somewhere. Likewise with the French Dmac has had 1 game, Riche the WC opener, again not on him, and then back when the team was struggling pre 2022.

rugby league and AFL didn’t exist in this country, I think the Wallabies would be hard pressed to ever lose a game.”

Pompous nonsense.

'There's no future': Former All Blacks pick their halfback for first Argentina Test

I think he backs himself to be what he was at test level, which I think his contract length shows, but so i’m far more inclined to go with money being the driver.

And why not? Not begrudging him. Just don’t believe he’s worth making exemptions for at AB level.

Romanticising rugby's dark arts and grubbery has got to go

Yes, well as I say, not completely I don’t believe. I’m sure even now there are still those coaches around, and would-be willing participants if it was allowed.

It’s the way it needs to be really isn’t it.

Fissler Confidential: Feyi-Waboso latest target of rebel comp

You've only proved my point. Those that went over seas or to other comps did so at the expense of a test career. In most cases.

It would be the same with the Saudi league.

NZR condition delays Richie Mo’unga’s All Blacks eligibility

Well I’m including the fact Richie didn’t agree to come back sooner in that statement, which I think really needed to happen if his signing is going to be successful.

Mystified by that signing describes it quite well I feel.

True, although I do think BB wants records. He may chase the test caps one if still playing well enough.

136 now so barring injury another 20+ by end of WC.

Dmacs stats are only after he switched to 10, post that WC. He was injured in 19’, which is why Richie was playing.

BBs record then was awesome though, Richies, not so much, and that pack only lost Charlie after the lions I think.
