    why is he banned? I thought the only thing you could get in trouble for was reposting someone else's pic.

    Reckon any all back would struggle to make a world XV now really. Might get a few places on the bench though.

    That's what happens when you drink the water in 3rd world countries.

    It isn't 1995 anymore. Those excuses don't fly nowadays.

    You wont hear those excuses from the team management because they would be accused of being sore losers etc. It's fact though...they were sick during the week so of course that would have affected the performance. Having to play 30 games in 40 weeks a major factor too. The players were sick and exhausted so the bubble of 20 undefeated games was bound to burst at some stage. Having said that England played superbly too so full credit to them...as Fitzy would have said ;)

    Of course we won't hear it from the team. Because fans like you and the media will come up with....

    all on your own. You make their excuses for them.

    Yep. If Hansen said what everyone knew and was thinking it would be seen as ungracious.

    Did you want England to win that game?
     
  12. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Would have also been untrue. He's a good enough coach not to pick guys that are sick or not ready to play.

    And yes. Obviously.

    I hear the English were coming off a 2 year holiday and were fresher than the All Blacks in a most unfair way.

    He didn't have a full squad of unaffected players to chose from. Most of the team were crook...and all were tired. Plenty of players had to take the field feeling like shit.

    And there's seriously something wrong with a bloke who obv likes rugby from NZ hating the All Blacks so much. You need to see a shrink to find out where all this irrational hatred of them stems from :laugh:

    :confused: It's the start of their season. Of course they were fresher. They also weren't ill.
     
  16. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Yeah it's so sad the AB's have to play so many games in a row and they get tired.

    Not like those South African, Australian and Argentine players all didn't also play European/Super Rugby and 4 Nations. They just decided to tour the Northern Hemisphere for a lark.

    The Aussies, South Africans and the Argies all had the same issue of tiredness as the All Blacks and it showed in some of their performances tbh. The difference being that they weren't hit by a virus like the ABs. These tours at the end of season always give the Northern hemisphere teams a huge advantage. Once every 10 years or so England takes advantage of that :laugh:

    NZ are fucking pansies if a stomach bug gets them to perform at such a lower level. We breed em hard in SA, having the shits is motivation to go into the ruck hard so that shit sprays all over the opposition.

    :laugh: I like it
