New Zealand v England

[breadman]

Just thought i would let you know that i think the poms are the best of good things due to them coming of a harden test campaign. Ive heard that the kiwis have not had much training for this match so beware if your on the kiwis.

Breadman,

NZTAB. H2H A/B's $1.40 Poms $2.85.

The A/B's have a fairly new look pack...they are the form players of the S12 so no excuses there, as to how they perform as a unit after only been to-gether for a week remains to be seen, if they can get 45 to 50 % of the ball they'll bring home the bacon.

[sportznut]

This England team bears NO resemblance to the World Cup champions.

[Squirter]

Sportz,

The main difference being Wilkinson and Johnson, apart from that it was the top team the Poms could bring ( coach ) The A/Bs had an experimental pack ....not only did we bring home the bacon, we brought home the whole B pig. They play you fellas in two weeks time, how you reakon you'll go ?

Yes a top win. But I'm sure some 'experts' will make excuses.

[Squirter]

BBCareful,

I don't think you'll see too much bleeting out of Woodward....he's not that kind of joker.

Good game and win for the ABsSquirts...thought the Poms were found out when they had to run the ball for points (after realising that being physical was not working)...Jason Robinson also was not playing...be a different contest when they face opposition that have world class loosies and talent out wide. Henry and Co. will need to look at a more mobile pack...Marshall will have to look at his decision making again (bring back Byron and Buck while you're there LOL!)

Hope the Wallabies score against the Scots doesn't blow out to a big margin...Gregan and co look primed...

What chance the Waratahs signing up Andrew Johns?

[Squirter]

no luck there Paddy

They were 1,000,000/1 of ever getting him

[sportzfan]

According to Rugby Heaven a 2nd attempt is being mounted.

He has told everyone he is not going to play union, he's going to play in the nrl, maybe if they supply him with a keg of beer every week instead of a bottle of chardonay, they might be only a 100,000/1. LOL

Sounds like a dig at the Rugby set :???:

[goldmember]

Nooo,the 'leather patches'have that reputation, and he's a skuller not a sipper LOL

[Squirter]

Hey Gold,

If they offered me a 9 gallon keg a week I'd even play with my-self.

[kenchar]
