    [2014 EOYT] Canada vs. Romania 22/11/14

    I don't know about you guys but I'm not at all shocked by this. And I think the RC board should seriously think about making a coaching change. Assuming we can find an acceptable replacement through to the RWC I'm all for it. It might not necessarily be his fault, but this team needs a shake up...

    RFU Championship XV vs Canada - 2/11/14 @ Sixways

    I wish I could say I was surprised by the result, but I wasn't. Usual game, usual issues. What the hell has happened the past year and a half?

    2014 America's Rugby Championship

    Holy crap. Derek. Daypuck. Does anyone know what happened to Kleeberger? I thought he would have been included. Another injury?

    Barring something remarkable, that's all she wrote.

    IRB Women's World Cup 2014

    In addition to nervous passing, our kicking has looked a bit aimless too. We need to retain possession.

    Paquin et Harvey sont Québécoise aussi! J'suis certain qu'il y en a plusier mais j'ai oublié tous leurs noms...

    If you don't mind me asking, what was said?

    IRB Women's World Cup 2014

    That game was insane. I know a lot of people thought Canada was the underdog, but never figured that was the case. Well done ladies! Time for our women to make rugby history and win the Women's World Cup! Can't say enough about Harvey, Paquin, and Russell!

    [Pacific Nations Cup] United States vs. Canada. 21/06/14

    Given what we've seen prior to and during the June tests, I'm curious what everyone's 30 man squad will be for the RWC. Has anyone that you rated highly dropped from contention during the past month? If the squad needs to be named today I would go with... 1) Buydens 2) Carpenter 3) Marshall 4)...

    [Pacific Nations Cup] United States vs. Canada. 21/06/14

    While I don't think I would go as far as suggesting a coaching review (I was just kind of thinking out loud when I suggested that), you're not kidding about random selections and arbitrary substitutions- subbing half the pack at halftime was a poor decision, as was bringing McRorie on against...

    [Pacific Nations Cup] United States vs. Canada. 21/06/14

    I would generally agree with most of your ratings, LittleGuy. I don't think Mack was quite that bad, nor was Braid (I actually thought he played okay). Ilnicki, on the other hand, had a pretty poor game. Not as bad as Hirayama's performance, however. Unfortunately this test series might have...

    [2014 Mid-Year Test] Canada vs. Scotland 14/06/14

    I think I've grieved enough... I think I can speak for most Canadian supporters when I say that the past two weeks have probably been the most emotionally draining games that we have watched since RWC 2011. I legit felt exhausted after the games. But anyway, this was clearly a far better...

    [2014 Mid-Year Test] Canada vs. Scotland 14/06/14

    Well that was an amazing effort by Canada that was deserving of a win. Can't say the same for that reffing- giving Sinclair the red and taking away an easy penalty was what lost it for us. We deserved to win today... That's gotta go down as one of the worst decisions I have ever seen.

    [2014 Mid-Year Test] Canada vs. Scotland 14/06/14

    My sentiments exactly. I understand maybe not giving Parfrey a shot, but why not slot Braid in at 12? Or Braid at 10 and Jones at 12? Either is preferable to having Blevins in the lineup- his defence last week wouldn't have cut it in a Manitoba 3rd division game.

    [2014 Mid-Year Test] Canada vs. Scotland 14/06/14

    Unfortunate that both will be out, especially Underwood. I was hoping he would get a run this weekend. Given the 10/12 problems we experienced last week, what is everyone expecting for selection? And what about scrumhalf? As good as McRorie was I think I would prefer to see Mack starting. And...

    [Pacific Nations Cup] Canada vs. Japan. 07/06/14

    This. I am so disappointed by how this game played out. Blevins is done.

    My God, that American loose-head.

    That's a great looking pitch. Lets hope the good guys prevail!

    [Pacific Nations Cup] Canada vs. Japan. 07/06/14

    I agree with most of your picks, LittleGuy. Not sure that I would go with DTH at 12, though. Personally, I like the idea of Braid at 12 with Jones at 10. Not only can they platoon effectively, but Braid is a bit more of a hard charger (kinda like Blevins). In any case, I would go with the...

    [Pacific Nations Cup] Canada vs. Japan. 07/06/14

    Rugby Canada just released the squad for the summer tests... and apparently DTH is included! CANADA’S ROSTER FOR JUNE INTERNATIONAL SERIES: Tyler Ardron – (Ospreys/Ontario Blues) Lakefield, ON Ray Barkwill – (Niagara Wasps RFC/Ontario Blues) Niagara Falls, ON Nick Blevins – (Calgary...
