Week that NZ Rugby will lament come 2011?
Goodness gracious me….Robbie “I OWN THE SUPER 14 BABY” Deans was today confirmed as the new coach for the Wallabies just seven days after being passed over for the All Blacks coaching job when Graham Henry was reappointed to the role.
Interested to hear you points of view on this.
Personally I’m already backing Australia to take the Webb Ellis from right under the noses of 50,000 JAFFAS at Eden Park in 2011. (If they get the stadium finished that is, or at least the bus stop upgrade planned for Sandringham Road!) After all Deans is a proven Rugby Genius, as opposed to Henry who’s yet not to buckle at key crunch points of international Rugby. Nothing for Wales, nothing for the Lions, and no World Cup with arguably the best team in the world by miles.
I am just winding some people up by the way, I guess that’s why Stephen Jones does it. Smirk.

UHDV uuurgh sexy numbers
just when you thought you’d got that stain out of the front of your jeans from the first time you saw 1080p video. . . . …. . . .. . .
from the land of big-eyed cartoons of dubious cultural impact comes UHDV .
. . .. .. . .. . … … … .. . .. . . . . . . .. . . . .
heres the low-down you crazy kids – yes, you two;
- 7,680 × 4,320 16 : 9 (HDTV = 1920 × 1080)
- 60 frames / second (standard PAL tv 25 fps)
- 194 gigabytes / minute uncompressed video … 2 hour movie = 23.28 terabytes
- with compression a 2 hour movie would be 360 gigglybits (blu-ray = 25gig | HD DVD = 15gig)
uuuurghh
