@AllBlackShark @FrontRowRugbyXV Rugby union isn't for everyone. I'd always recommend simplified versions like rugby league or sevens rugby for those who want a T20 cricket style of rugby. Some people just don't appreciate the traditional arts of rugby

@FrontRowRugbyXV @AllOutPace I’m not against this. It’s the scrum (not inside your own 22), box kick, catch, high kick, fake contest, knock on, scrum, kick, catch, kick etc stuff that does my head in.

A reminder to the "Ball In Play Brigade" ... two fullbacks playing kick tennis is also "ball in play". 25 consecutive phases of going nowhere is also "ball in play". Ball in play is a stupid metric! It tells you nothing.

@AllBlackShark @FrontRowRugbyXV @SVNSSeries Why exactly? Have you not been watching the aerial battles lately? More attacking opportunties What makes rugby union unique, several ways to play and win. There shouldn't be one set way to play just to reduce scrums or kicks. Good teams evolve and adjust

@AllOutPace @FrontRowRugbyXV @SVNSSeries No, I’ve made it clear I’m against the amount of kicking, especially the massive increase in box kicks. But at least there’s something going on, not scrum resets and standing around waiting for something to happen. I’m in favour of maximising the spectacle & experience.

@KERRZZO @scrumming_ten He'll have to wait till after the 2031 RWC. Rassie is contracted till then.

@scrumming_ten I’d hate to lose him but it’s a when not if. He deserves a crack at a real top job.

Franco Smith has made every player in the Glasgow Warriors squad believe that they are world beaters Even the extended squad players play with confidence I hope he coaches the Springboks one day 🇿🇦

@Munsterrugby @killester_group Oh well, at least they can get a tan

A massive thank you to everyone who travelled to support us in South Africa. We are very grateful & your support is hugely appreciated 🚩 #SUAF 🔴 | @killester_group

@Knick_RSA Okay, the black and gold one should have been the actual away kit 🥰

😱😱😱you people are amazing with these colours

@rekoil92 But it is Jacque Nienaber's fault that Ireland put 40+ on England and Scotland

One of the greatest to ever do it..... And J. Nienaber.

@BocM18 F*** football anyways, a soft spot compared to rugby. This guy is just a moron

Another lad not old enough to remember when Ireland had a decent football team…..

@EnglandRugby Japan is a rich country, in fairness. Not really an upset

Defeat for England U19 Men 🌹

Worst ever Munster performance? #SHAvMUN

@teflon_snake @scrumming_ten This post was in relation to New Zealand, not Ireland 🤣

@scrumming_ten An important forward always seems to go off early against Ireland in high stakes games. Scotland as a recent example but the Boks too, 3 blood bins in 20 mins iirc.

@RugbyPlot @scrumming_ten Would agree, New Zealand experienced 2011 RWC like crookery at the 2019 Cricket World Cup

@scrumming_ten Was the 2019 Cricket World Cup karma for New Zealand, after their fixed 2011 Rugby World Cup win? A taste of their own medicine, perhaps. New Zealand can only be declared 2019 CWC champions if they relinquish the 2011 RWC to France

By far the worst world cup in any sport in history No iconic moments. Final didn't even have an official winner. People only remember the rugby World Cup from the same year!

@AllBlackShark @FrontRowRugbyXV @SVNSSeries So you're saying kick tennis and progressless 25 phase attacks is money well spent? Think about it, defences are way more structured and therefore require smart tactics to breakdown than simply ball in play rugby.

@AllOutPace @FrontRowRugbyXV @SVNSSeries So when you go to a two hour concert by your favourite band you’d be happy if they stood around fiddling with their instruments and getting ready to play for more than half the time too? Watch a 50 minute film at the cinema for full price?

@AllBlackShark @FrontRowRugbyXV If I want ball in play rugby, I'd watch @SVNSSeries

@FrontRowRugbyXV @AllOutPace If multiple phases bore you then you’re an ideal candidate to switch to NRL or NFL.

@FrontRowRugbyXV Exactly. Ball in play rugby clearly suits New Zealand rugby 🤭

@AllOutPace And the ball was in play!

@MairtinConway @PlanetRugby Yes

@PlanetRugby has there ?

Brian O'Driscoll: There has been 'a lot of anti-Farrell sentiment' and this is why #Echobox=1774021882" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">planetrugby.com/news/brian-odr…

@AussiesArmy When Australia used sandpaper in 2018. The headlines 🤭

Cricket peaked when ____

@ChalynRugby The All Blacks are Kings of Forward Passes, though 🤭

Do you want to see a joke ? THAT IS FORWARD man 😂😂 #SuperRugbyPacific #WARvBLU

@OGcuzziebro @scrumming_ten There's meaningless history and there's meaningful history Did you know? -The All Blacks have a 0% winning record in world cup finals against the Springboks. -The Springboks have a 100% winning record in world cup finals.

@scrumming_ten History my learned friend is never meaningless

Happy Human Rights day to all South Africans 🇿🇦 Happy Day 2331 of the Springboks being World Champions for everyone else 😋

@SlayingGoliath @Knick_RSA Has started to grow on me in fairness

@AllOutPace @Knick_RSA The green one is literally great.

Is the white one real?
