McAlisters gonna miss the semi, so its a Sharks Home Final, see ya all when the Tri Nations Start http://www.stuff.co.nz/4050196a1823.html
yeah i saw it in the news. huge blow for the blues. has sam tuitupou recovered? personally i would like to see howell at 10 and nacewa at 12. but if sam tuitupou has recovered i doubt that nucifora will bring in howell.
Haha! The Blues will need to play the way they did in round one against the Crusaders. A total team commitment....they aren't the flashest team around...but they can win on guts. As for the Crusaders.....they have gotten worse every week....they should have never put their AB's back in lol!
haha love the title!! lol bad bad very bad news for the blues aye i was giving them a chance of taking it out, but then uh-oh!!! I'm doubting it now lol prove me wrong blues
wow that is a big blow for the blues. mcAlister was defintely runing the show against the force and was playing really well. not sure if the blues can get the win over in SA now. hopefully they can pull off a miracle somehow
It is indeed a terrible blow. I think now is the time to play a more conservative game and bring in Holwell. Shift Nacewa to 12.
Fingers crossed to see Holwell at 10 and Nacewa at 12... hard ask for the Blues to get on top of the Sharks.
McAlister missed the Round Robin game didn't he? We still managed to come close to beating the Sharks - take away the 2 bullshit tries and we would've cruised home... but there is a difference playing in front of 25,000 Blues Fans and 50,000 South Africans after yet another 12 Hour Flight.
i hope Jonathon Kaplan (is that his name?) refs the game hahaha anyways i thought the blues flew out to SA yesterday?
Thats just fantastic. Really it is. I just hope the All Blacks win the World Cup, so it can erase all the pain in this years Super14. For the first time, we could have an All South African final. A sad day for NZ Rugby. Almost as bad as the 2001 season.
they may have gone by now but they flew to sydney after their game against the force because they didn't know who they would be playing.
kaplan isnt refereeing as they have nutreal refs and touch judges in both games. they were announced yesterday i cant remember who they are though.
Well, we're really f'ucked now. Stuart Dickinson is controlling the game. This is the same f'uckwit who controlled the game in Albany Stadium a few weeks back. I'd rather have a South African ref than having this dimbwit, clueless, bitch-ass, dumb arse of a ref.
:lol: :lol: No, not him. I would have preferred the "Best" ref to a "Neutral" ref. If it means Jonathan Kaplan controlling it, then yes.
