Yes, dismiss my insightful analysis as conspiracy theories. I remember hearing the same thing about Lance Armstrong.

@BokAWhinger - "Not sure why we're bothering with this rigged tournament again". I am not sure why YOU are bothering with the tournament then. Perhaps you would like to take the season off and come back in a year or so? If you have already resigned yourself to believing your own conspiracy theories before the first whistle of the season, then your comments will never be well received in here. Get a grip, man

"When was the last time Oz won a trophy"

The cook cup, that's when we beat England, Aus undefeated since 2012 !!! when was the last time you won? Or last time we fielded a full 15, won the tri nations 2011 !!!Lol just stirring, give me my time in the sun ! It doesn't happen often!

carpelone:

"it will be a clean sweep for the Boks." "correlated to reality"

Here's a new year resolution (not sure i could keep to it, it's a tough one !!!!)- Try not to laugh at Saffas too much,

@bokavenger this was funny at first but now it's getting a bit old mate. No one really wants to hear your lame theories. Thank god not all saffas are as thick as you.

@trinats2

SA had more injuries than aus. they were missing their first choice 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 14, 12 for most of the tournament.

Expect the ABs to continue on from 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009...... etc etc etc. Mostly jus looking forward to smashing the poms and sending them quiet for the next decade.

@Carpelone. Georgesmith has lost his purpose in life now that Sharpe has retired. Our thoughts are with him.

carpelone says...

Where the hell is Georgesmith?

With M Steyn heading to France, it will be a clean sweep for the Boks.

Trinats. No new year resolutions mate? Such as My posts should be slightly correlated to reality. Why not, for a change...

Sound like a bit of a whinger, BokAvenger?? What's the prob??

BokAvenger says...

Almost every NZ win is tainted by biased refereeing. Witness how NZ are allowed a mandatory 5 forward passes per game by the refs. They get away with cheap shots and punches on the ground, jersey tugging, blatant offside play, playing the ball on the floor, skew throw ins and feeds at line outs and scrums. Need I go on? It's as if the officials are too scared to ping them for their indiscretions. That can only happen if you're under instructions from up high. Even Bryce Lawrence admitted that "powerful" people had influenced him before that quarterfinal between SA and Oz. What more proof do you need that officiating is rotten to the core?

Ha ha Trinads

It's trophies that count that's why these tournaments are played. When was the last time Oz won a trophy and how many have you got??????

ArmchairGeneral says...

Boks should be sliding down the rankings.

Re Oz. wonder if Deans will come out with his "one eye on the bledisloe cup" comment he made before his first AB game last year! That was my quote of the year! However Oz are the only ones that can realistically hope to beat them to first in the tournament in 2013

tha_mai says...

BokAvenger - nice to see you so positive at the start of the year.

Why do you even bother posting?

refreshing your memory, combined scores for 2012 were AB 53 SA 27, six tries to two, larger of the two wins to NZ was the away match in SA front of 81,000 SA fans, winning four tries to one.

Beaten get over it.

Or better still, go away.

daibok says...

Bokavenger: NZ won because they are the best. We won a couple of years ago for the same reason. Refs are inconsistent and sometimes incompetent but never crooked.

trinats2 says...

You are only as good as your last game ! Been a while since NZ has tasted success, and they will have to wait until Sept. for another win !

latin:

Arg should have beaten SA. Only a late charge down saved SA a draw. Aus beat Arg with a second string side, twice. I can see Arg beating SA this year.

BokAvenger says...

Not sure why we're bothering with this rigged tournament again. Why not just award the All Pacific the trophy right now and save everyone a huge amount of travel expenses. IRB's crooked refs are never going to allow their paymasters' precious marketing gimmick to lose any games so why bother. Congratulations NZ on another win.

latin says...

lets see if argentina can pull off a win this year ............ i suspect so, witht he most likely one being Australia again. However, it is not going to be too long before Pumas get a 'surprise' win against NZ or SA
