Well he did get chance a week or back, and perhaps didn't always take best options? As I said I was on forums before Super rugby started this year saying he the man! I still believe it too, but I also recognise that the coaches do tend to lean towrds experience in big game. His time will come, and I suspect he will have a battle with Hotham for the spot in a couple of years.Grandpa wrote: Thu Oct 19, 2023 12:49 pmSo which team would we have to play for Roigard to be picked?

If the ABs make final and it is against Boks, I wonder if they are looking at maybe defence needed at end of game? Not suggesting it is the case, but I just taking guess.
Christie played very well today.Dan54 wrote: Sat Oct 21, 2023 6:59 amWell he did get chance a week or back, and perhaps didn't always take best options?

I'm not a betting man, so no.
Besides, you missed the point. You suggested that just because we beat the Pumas well last time we played, we're certain to do the same again next time we meet (tomorrow). I was merely pointing out the flaw in your logic, giving an example of exactly the opposite happening when our two teams (SA and NZ) last played.
Have to say, it's fascinating to watch the Saffers getting so excited on this match thread as well as their own. It's almost like beating England is a foregone conclusion, and they're already focussed on the final...
I feel great, although having polished off half a bottle of bourbon I know it's only temporary.
I enjoy close games when I’m a neutral, 10-9 would have been preferableJethro wrote: Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:15 amAlways that way when one team dominates to such an extent their opposition can't fire a shot.
Guess you don't like low scoring forward games either
You could play France for 5th-6th place, for the "atmosphere".EnergiseR2 wrote: Fri Oct 20, 2023 11:56 pmVery very yawn

that’s quite goodWhat’s he actually saying and why is he directing this to NZ fans?
It's one long whinge about the atmosphere being "ruined" by the draw, the draw itself, the refereeing, etc etc. Kiwis quite rightly have had no truck with any of this so he's being pissy about the pushback.
