Jerry C announced his retirement today . big loss to NZ rugby - cheers for the memories bro

NSW vs Lions

2001

great stuff - crazy to see henry behind scenes

- a bit of moaning - a cheap shot on o’gara -

 - ultimately a 2-1 loss in the series -

some great play from Adam Thomson - a hilight of a lolight season for the highlanders

.. . . . . . of course from the ARC ^& Fraser Davidson dimension

another great Vid from Fraser Davidson and the guys at the ARC … has been a bit of a hiatus from them after ‘the French game‘ … fair enuff , some scars, or forward passes, never heal :p (?)

.

pps. just kidding . i love watching the all blacks play France . you never know whats gonna fucking happen arse .

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.
