Brycy the wee abs were embarassed by the Bok scrum and lineouts. In the scrums we had a 100% success rate the wee abs were at 74% I think they said about the same as the wobblies. You shaded us on defence but that was because we played 14 men for 50 minutes against the abs. Also the defence at the Ellis Park test was substandard. Our defence is normally better than the abs as we all know
Beeno just giving the kiwis some much needed perspective and a subtle hint of what is in store for them.

would rather wait to see if fifita is more then a one hit wonder like the rest of those players which have been popping their heads up lately.
tom leroy lahrs, dave shillington and jamal idris are a few names who have all gone silent recently after barnstorming seasons.
players i would try to get are those in the backs where the wallabies have a pretty good strike rate when it comes to code hoppers having successful stints.
and whats with all these league heads getting into trouble???
NRL and super league need to get together and say serial offenders will not be elgible for any clubs in either the NRL or superleague.
put that threat out there and wtach the tide turn with off field incidents, for it will take one or two players to be out of rugby league work permanently for the message to get across.
would be nice if union worked together with league on this one too, to stop offenders from code hopping, but luckily code hopping is not as easy at others like folau and SBW make it look like.

@cloudzter,
i believe that benji can be a huge success at union too, but i dont like how JK is playing him at fullback where IMO hes going to get found out heaps.
if this was benji from 5 years ago, then i would say no worries, play him at 15, but IMO flyhalf is his best position.
all speculation though, cos the truth is nobody knows, but i do wish him all the best and dont mind being proved wrong.
