Rip retallick

Based

we've got this lads

remember when read had good handling

lose retallick and lose the game would be funny

Think we're fucked lads

all blacks no skills

One of the few injuries I've suffered, you wouldn't believe how painful this one is. Hinge joints don't like going past 90 degrees.

Fucken kaffa.

if digits brodie simply hits his shoulder with his club and fixes it, if singles we win the WC anyway

>mo'unga
shithouse player

Dubs and Brodie is forced to retire.

NZ don't stand a chance at the WC without Retallick

smith still gives faster ball than perenara

The midweek welshmen are suspiciously silent this evening lads.

Bridge in 5 mins has had more of an impact than either wing this game. Though I think that's more to do with SBW being gone and the ball actually getting wide at a decent rate

A broken wrist/arm would be a best case scenario, only a few weeks out if it heals right.

What does 'Absolutely Positively Wellington' mean?

Why does sbw have a ginger patchy beard? Was not expecting it to look that shit.

the most dangerous lead

you're overthinking it

>picks it up
>looks up
>steps
>passes
That's smith at the moment and Piri when he use to run 2m before passing every ball was quicker and that was terrible

AIDs capital of nz

>the choice in the date
hmm

Right here cunt.
*pisses on Retallick's grave*

*runs right at you with eyes wide open*

It's the slogan we've had for tourism in Wellington.

Who are you going to support after the group stages of the world cup are over?

Since SBW went off the balls been getting wide. Not much to think about to connect those dots

*gets hurt*
inshallah, kid

it means that despite what you may have heard, wellington is indeed wellington.

'visit Wellington' would make more sense

the colonies

how good is goodhue

Nice phase of play there from NZL, including LFWRLABM.

he's pretty good

greathue

I suppose since Wales are guaranteed to make the final I should pick a tier 2 nation to support.
The two plebs playing today look like they need support.

The other slogan for Wellington is "coolest little capital"

Wellington is a shithole

mate where the fuck were you when retallick got cleaned out

no discipline
no fitness
no lineout

Did the ref cause your defence to fall asleep to let the ABs score a try? That's shocking!

anyone pick a draw?

That missed knock on probably won't make a difference in the end, but don't the side line ARs notify the field ref of these things?

>admitting defeat
have a little faith in your team, there's still a few minutes left

early tackle

ARG vs AUS yes

There was absolutely nothing wrong with that. He just caught him off-guard.

I love it when after david skips 3m sideways before passing. That's the sort of quick ball the backs love

Retallick and Whitelock have both been hit and injured illegally by saffas, the fuck you on about you thick cunt

Well if they missed tackle off the ball they had no chance of seeing the knock on.

ref didn't make you shit m8

Too soon mate

bloody good game though

ok we can now be friends kiwis

Both teams were equally shit tbf

Time for a drive up to the Brownsy to start some fights.

You can't be serious, that was shit.

SA withstood NZ and clinched the tie

South Africa won on away tries

*starts up the steamroller*

South Africa win on higher possession percentage.

Haha nabbed the draw and ended Retallick.

Job well done.

Scott and Crotty are available in like 5 weeks from now
Retallick should be fine next week if it is a dislocation like they think.
Bridge still needs a start against a decent side
Other than that no complaints 2bh

>dad is more interested for the wobs game than the previous game just because he lives here
cant wrap my head around it lads. I've pointed out it's a whole step down in quality and he's still more interested in this than the NZ game

if this all blacks team played in the six nations where would we finish? i think we'd beat italy and scotland, maybe one of the others

Freedom from apartheid

Todd wasn't that bad. A couple of knock ons sure, but carried tirelessly and made tackles throughout

I plan to be at the very bottom of all rankings come the end
Who got it?

If you had to play away at every team, I agree.

If you alternated home and away probably first

grim

shoulder dislocations are 16 weeks

>when you go full kinetic and recover from a dislocated shoulder in less than 7 days

I am a doctor and Retallick will never play rugby again

Checked
No wc for brodie confirmed

these digits are mesmerising

Fuck I hope that this Mounga cantab meme can fuck off now. Just after half time the ABs started playing well and aggressively. This also just so happened to be when TJ said fuck this and just started passing to Barrett every time.

Honestly 2nd or 1st

Avoman is one of the few people on Earth with the power to be fully kinetic

>the argentinian national anthem will now be performed by, scribe

Just wait for the mental gymnastics they’ll put themselves through over this performance

In 2011 and 2015 ABs have much better squads. Now it's a bunch of old tired men and nonames.

In terms of TRC national anthems, Australias ranks last, every time

What the fuck is this land acknowledgement bullshit?

dont be racist

It’s not a new thing. They did it during the Ireland tour.

says it in the title really bud

So we can agree without the ref giving nz the last 3 points as a bonus, sa won that.

you were definitely the better team but that's not saying much

Only if it is in nz best interest otherwise no.

the rightful native owners just being given a token nod

australians of european extraction need to fuck off back home

don't worry, every person in NZ considers that a loss, feel free to claim your win

Want Argentina to be good so it makes the England pool a lot harder

I prefer how faf plays bit herschel has been putting up the numbers. What’s the /rug/ consensus

high octane rugby here lads

You sister is coming over later m8

without blacks its 70%
with blacks its 5%

>tripfag
>better than anyone
Oof

The entire SA gameplan was box-kick. They no longer had a gameplan when the box-kick guy went off.

Foof infinitely better
Hershlag good prospect and ideal to have on the bench

Literally 3 white players and 12 coconuts in the starting XV for Australia lmao

Did anyone watch the Japan game. Does it look like they might cause Scotland some problems?

Aussie looking better, this is a great competition this year

We are frens but what happened to you in the cricket was the most brutal thing I have ever seen in sport... Especially that 6 from stokes who is nz born.

No I mean the team is 70% white and that's fine because there are lots of black/coloured people in the population

Scotland will cause Scotland problems, as ever.

they looked good but Fiji looked pretty shell shocked and had two big games against the MAB's recently so take it with a grain of salt
I definitely think they could he a threat to scotland

jantjies kept dummying taking the ball out of the ruck before his boxkicks

i was pretty sure that was a penalty offence but im not so sure now since it was never penalized

didnt see it.

Japan will pull a world cup upset, but it won't be against Scotland (Scotland know that Japan are looking to pull an upset so will be ready to push back against that) but rather against Ireland, who will not view the plucky nips as much of a threat.

Still the best drop kick I've ever seen

Sad to see a lack of people identifying as Welsh in any case

whatever happened to manuel montero? quality argie winger but he fucked his knee up before the last world cup and I haven't seen him since

has anyone scored this half?

People here genuinely think the Welsh are just a type of English.

two penalties for Aus

Aus penalty 5 mins in.

That’s true though

16-16? The fuck? How rough was it? Did people die?

pretty physical.
NZ came off worse

Retallick couldn't handle the physicality.

Much fucking better than the current game

Ben O'Keeffe about to redeem his Crusaders performance

It was pretty physical. Brodie'a definitely injured. Faf apparently failed his HIA, but he was on his feet and looking alright so I don't know how bad it actually was

Wait I thought Specsavers and Skeen were shit refs? Shedidiot on pooicide watch.

you could say retallick got bollocked

Skeen is still shit but Ben is now my friend.

Oh shit, OK.

this is a shit game

sorry for calling you an idiot I got a bit excited.

All is forgiven.

He passed he just ran out of time, coach never taught him how to read a clock

What has happened to the Pumas scrum in the past 4 years? They used to be able to scrum both the Boks and the ABs and come out on top

I was wondering about that. He didn't come back but he looked okay enough to play on when the camera glanced his way

No the commentator was saying that was possibility, then came back and said he actuslly failed it so the time limit was irrelevant
The time limit shit seems a bit pointless

Didn't do any coke with him, but had it been offered I don't think he would have refused.

This is going to be a 17-16 win to the Pumas, just watch.

He was pinged for drugs in France, pretty sure it was coke

Lets say a Bulls v Lions on Loftus?

It’ll be fucking huge lad

>16-16

Personally looking forward to Lions v Lions.

Not unless the ABs put a 50+ score bonus point victory in the bledisloe, which should ensure them the top of the table.

NZ dont look as strong as they used to be for me lads, i wonder has this anything to do with it or is this just a warning that it things will get even worse for them in the future

lol poo blacks

Yes, NZL will be bad any day now.

I'm talking about the freedom cup

The schoolboy issue is whats happening to you lads right now, which is why you've been reduced to playing mostly foreigners in your National Team and nearly heading out of the top ten teams in the world when for years you were locked into the top 3

>all the rugby for this weekend is over
grim

there's nrl and currie cup mate!

Got home at 7 and basically died on my bed. I slept for like 5.5 hours and I can't fall asleep again now.

>basketball
Fuck that

WC Ireland have a bad reputation though.

True but we are at a much higher level now than we have ever been before, the fact we had a bad year so far this year suits us, meaning we go into the WC with the pressure off us

The fixtures suit us, we play Scotland/Japan in our first 2 games meaning we can rest our A side after and prepare for the knockout stages when in the last WC we had France at the end of the group stages were we lost about 5 of our best players in that game, if we get knocked out again in the quarters feel free to shit all over us

And if you lose to Scotland or Japan?

Then it would be a significant dip in performance, even from the last 6 Nations. The point is that it’s unlikely

We wont, we're on a much higher level now and will be taking both of them seriously, my only worry is Sexton /Murray, i have a doubt of Murray being fully physically fit and know Sexton is not mentally fit since the end of last year

And Schmidt is too loyal to both of them when they should have been left out of the 6 Nations and more game time given to the other fly/scrumhalves of the other Porvinces

yeah me and dad were talking about this during the game, bit lucky they didn't have a look

Neither Ireland, Scotland, or Wales are leaving their pool.

>irish media adamant it was TJ Perenara ball that fed BB for Goodhue's try
Fucking LOL how rent free i'd pick SBW for the world cup just because of this

>Sexton is not mentally fit
Sexton was carrying an injury, somewhere on his leg I think, which is why he was so poor. Though poor form does seem to affect his mentality and make him prone to sulking.

It's happened to him before and to other players too who play through a season with an issue and their form suffers as a result. I don't really care what Sexton does after the World Cup even as a Leinster supporter but he is our most important player at the moment and we need him if we even want to entertain the notion of winning a quarter final.
You are right though that he should have given Carbery/Carty a better looking at and Byrne a chance against Italy.

>le obsess over irish media and fans and thinks they're rent free man

I'm just glad the kiwis seem to care what we think, it means we've finally truly made it into the rugby fraternity.

appear in a world cup semi final and you'll have my attention.

Um sweetie I read rugby media from all over the globe, that's how you get a well rounded picture of the game as a whole.

Dangerously close to 500.
Hue watches and waits. And seethes.

They didn't win the trophy, they just held on to it.

USA v Canada on in an hour or so lads

>I read rugby media from all over the globe, that's how you get a well rounded picture of the game as a whole

Not him but all that rugby media was pushing and promoting that Nations league cancer that fans and players themselves rejected but only failed because the unions couldn't come to an agreement on how to rob all the fans of money

I wouldn't be so reliant on global media for anything

Fuck the hue

*does one of those hippo shits where they flap their tail and shit flies everywhere*
Still better looking than NZ WC chances.

3 IN A ROW!!
