oooooooooooooh so close : Sat May 26, 2012 2:43 pm  

so close to keeping a side below 30 points, admittedly against the second worst attackers.
where is the logic in bringing in a winger on loan then playing him outside kirk "cant pass wont pass" dixon who after missing easy kicks is now offering little and needs an enforced rest

Rhys Williams was crap anyway - bombed a try and had 2 errors...and was taken off in the 2nd half!

Waste of time bringing him in.

For me, Dicko has always been a very average player...not particularly good...yet not overly bad either. His saving grace being that a year or two ago he was nailing kicks from all over the ground. If his kicking has now deserted him, then he brings very little to our game and must be the slowest winger in SL.

I enjoyed the thrill and the tension of toda'ys game, however the quality of rugby on display from both sides was pretty poor and it's very easy to see why both teams are at the bottom end of the table.

Two poor sides and some strange calls from the ref and VR, not a great advert for the game.

For a local neutral it was very entertaining

We are boring to watch. Do the exact same thing every set and have a none existent defence. What was Rangi doing on the final tackle too? Why didn't he just kick it up?

Worst "team" i've ever seen.

I found that game very entertaining - as predicted, it wasn't a great display of silky skills, but it was a nail-biter.
