Ireland 10 - Wales 22Ooh la la! This was rugby at it’s most exciting. Wales have announced themselves on the world stage with an impassioned win against Ireland. I have to eat all my words for my first two quarter final predictions. I really thought Ireland were going to win […]

Millennium Stadium13 August 2011
Three weeks to go before the RWC 2011 and Martin Johnson has some serious questions to ponder. No doubt a great player, his coaching nous is not looking to match those playing days. He is a shadow of the tactician when compared to the likes of Father […]

Six nations round up - week 2 - 2011
February 13th, 2011 · No Comments
newsfeeds@nzherald.co.nz wrote this article.
Six things we’ve learnt after another great weekend of Six Nations rugby.
1. England are looking good. In fact, yesterday they played some of the best rugby I’ve ever seen an England team play. Admittedly, it was against a quite abysmal Italian side. But - was this because England made them look abject? […]

The autumn internationals - round up

newsfeeds@nzherald.co.nz wrote this article.
Chris Rattue loves to complain but moaning that these autumn tests are meaningless and a waste of time surely shows up his true ineptitude when it comes to his knowledge of rugby. For an All Black supporter, it is always a joy to watch New Zealand play the northern hemisphere teams. The crowd […]

All Blacks V Wales - Millennium Stadium - 2009
November 7th, 2009 · No Comments
newsfeeds@nzherald.co.nz wrote this article. So Warren Gatland has spoken. The All Blacks have lost their ‘aura’. (That is of course compared to Gatland’s side of 20 years ago when Gatland himself played for the All Blacks). But - press rewind here. Gatland actually just warmed the bench for Sean Fitzpatrick so never actually played […]

Six Nations, Tony Veitch and the silly old Super 14
February 15th, 2009 · No Comments
noreply@blogger.com (Ferdy) wrote this article. More rugby on both sides of the hemisphere this weekend with the six nations bringing out a list of predictable results, although still quite spicy all the same.

Best and worst of rugby in 2009
December 21st, 2008 · No Comments
noreply@blogger.com (Ferdy) wrote this article. The end of year rugby awards have been rolled out by the Guardian and I thought I would add my two pence worth too with a very strong New Zealand bias (of course).
Best playerGuardian: Shane Williams (Wales). Harsh on Richie McCaw and Dan Carter but Williams deserves recognition for […]
