    Epic Foul

  • Random Play: Racial’s coming home . . .…,

    Laws is the biggest thing the Geographic Board have got going for it.

    A nation that may otherwise have thought “Why bother?” is now right behind the change.

    The concept that a referendum should decide a place name is a banal one. I bet a referendum to change the name of a town / city / province to “Hillary” would be a resounding success in most places around NZ at the moment.

    Are Lhaws' crazy eyes on Campbell Live freaking anyone else out?

    Oh yes. Along with the use of the word raschist.

    Ah yes; Michael with the silent “h” Laws.

    If it wasn’t for him I couldn’t really give a rat’s about the name change, but now I think it’s brilliant.

    everyone staying in NZ and coaching at provincial or super 14 level with an eye on the top job in the future, will be on the next plane out of here to earn more money in Europe.

    The reappointment of the current lot did that anyway. Warren Gatland. That guy coaching the Wallabies.

    we've got a bunch of good coaches who could step up to the All Blacks if Henry and Deans aren't needed

    That may be the case but I seem to seeing / hearing “Ah, you can’t sack the current coaches because there’s no-one else” a lot.

    BTW, when I employ Mr. White I’d tell him to get NZ coaches around him, but he’d know that anyway.


    When did this defeatism take over the NZ rugby psyche?

    If the NZRU were to put every current NPC and S14 coach and their assistancts, every current and former ABs coach and their assistants, and every New Zealander coaching at a high level overseas on a plane, crash that plane in the Andes, and have the survivors eat the dead to stay alive

    There’s some gag about how they’d last for months on just one forward coach screaming to get out, but I won’t go there.

    So you’re saying the NZRU is even more insular than the English FA and the BCCI?

    Wow.

    No matter how often you link to it, it's still a shabby piece of journalism :)

    Kyle,

    That linked SMH article would be easier to take seriously if it wasn’t so massively riddled with inaccuracies.

    So Ross did a rubbish job of calling the line-out last week; shouldn’t have been his role anyway.

    So I’d have thought the obvious action would be to give someone else that job.

    But they drop him altogether!!!

    Nice one Steve; going to give Donnelly that job too now?

    @Grant,

    Agreed, but I've never really heard a better description for it.

    Leith Flat?
    Castle Cook?
