  • Field Theory: The Return,

    I dunno. How long were the Springboks feted as world champions this time? About five minutes, by my recall.

    I'm still loving it. I put $100 on them at the TAB the day betting opened. They paid $1100.

    The test of of Robbie Deans at the international level will be in three years when he's had a chance to have some impact upon Australian rugby.

    He's the Isaia Toeava of coaching!

    JCDC, I presume you are reffering to the rest and rotation policy, not the rotation policy? The two are different :)

    [Just a pet peeve of mine...]

    Oh and as to Chris... rebuilding right? So both Australia and NZ lost by 2 points in the same round of the RWC, both to NH nations [which both have thrashed this year]. Both have lost many senior players after the RWC. GH gets the Bledisloe, Tri-Nations, Hillary Shield and Grand Slam. Wins 13 out of 15 matches. Australia win 9 out of 14 with a match against the baabaa's to come.

    Am I just being ignorant when I think the hard data points to GH as the better coach?

    [Edited as per the request of the poster -- I'll send the info on to Hadyn now -- RB]

    As to the jersey's, I like the idea of having two strips, but I wanted something half decent, not some mangled pos that someone's kid drew at school.

  • Field Theory: Analyse This,

    It just feels a bit flat to me.

    Just like the BLACKCAPS top order.

    Sorry, I'll give it up now.

    well hey, turns out it's not the first thing he's wrong about. Maybe we NEED him to give our teams success.

    Oh goodness, I hope that link code worked.

    Naly you bastard!
    Though I think I was just filler before Neil Gaiman

    Well, it'll give people who took yesterday and today off to watch the cricket something to do, besides mowing the lawns.

    To those who want to listen to Hadyn's interview;

    Pool of death is such a crap analogy. I always think of one of those motorbike-in-a-round-cage things. It never delivers.

    Those stats are good, it is nice to see journalists actually presenting hard data.

  • Field Theory: One Girl, Tin Cup,

    And in progressing past the group phase (I'm assuming we will, 1-0 up after 39 minutes) they are now the most successful World Cup football team. :)

    Um... That wasn't me. It was my brother's wife's 2nd cousin, who hates football and New Zealand.

    Yeah, that'll do.
