Terrible thread
Well that was awkward
So how long until the blues return to their righful place at the top of NZ rugby? I think next season might be a bit too early but surely 2018 is in the bag
>>67361468
Will the coaching staff change? If yes maybe 2019
Honestly Hurricanes are more likely to top NZ rugby before the Blues

You're living in the chiefs era. Waikato/bop is a growing and thriving economic powerhouse where sports are only getting stronger. Auckland is full of zhangs and pajeets. Sitalekis are all playing league. Chrushedchurch is permashook.

The Australian Sevens program today announced Quade Cooper will not be considered for selection for the final two rounds of the 2015-16 HSBC Sevens World Series or the Rio 2016 Olympics.
Australian Sevens Head Coach Andy Friend said: “There’s no doubt Quade is a quality player, but put simply, we just haven’t had the opportunity to work with him as much as we would have liked over the past five months. Each day I have a group of 20-plus players working on different structures and patterns of play and I don’t think we would have got the very best out of Quade had we just thrown him into a tournament with limited preparation – particularly for an event as momentous as the Olympics.
“As many players have found out throughout this season’s World Series, it is no easy task to transition from fifteens to the Sevens form of the game.
“Although we are still a few months out from the Games, I think it offers the fairest outcome for everyone by making the call now. Quade can channel his energies into Toulon while we can enter the next phase of our preparations for Rio knowing the direction we want to take.
“I have complete faith in the players we currently have in the Sevens program and their ability to perform on the big stage. We have two big tournaments coming up in the next couple of weeks in Paris and London and I’m confident we have given ourselves the best possible chance to perform in those events.”
Quade Cooper represented the national side in Las Vegas and Vancouver during the 2015-16 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series.
The Australian Sevens side travel to Europe on Friday ahead of the ninth leg of the 2015-16 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series in Paris which kicks off next Saturday morning (AEST). The squad for the Paris Sevens will be announced on Friday at 8am AEST.
Australia currently sits fourth in the World Series standings, 20 points adrift of third-placed New Zealand and ahead of fifth-placed USA by the same margin.
Expect to see lots of this at the weekend when Glasgow cement the #1 seed for the 2nd time in a row on their path to back2back Pro12 titles.
Feels good to be great.
>>67363173
All New Zealanders care about Australia.
It could be fucking kabadi and the Kiwis would turn up if you told them Australia was playing.
Despite the fact the Speds have nothing to do with Australia or Australians virtue of being a Pacific Islands feeder team, the fact that it is technically located in Australia is good enough for the Kiwis.
>>67363872
No one cares about the Speds. Not Australians, not New Zealanders, not even Speds fans.
It's kinda tough to create hype about Australian teams atm because they're so shit. I guess the Bumboys will create a bit of a buzz since they have a history of being a good team and they're going good among the Australian teams atm, but apart from that no one really cares here.
Just wait til the Bledisloe Cup matches later this year for the kiwi inferiority complex you're referring to.

Yeah unlikely story right sis haha
HIGHLY rated ex-pat Leroy Houston is on the verge of signing a deal to return to the Queensland Reds for next season and could be sighted in Wallabies gold within months.
But Houston may not be the only prodigal son to return to Ballymore, with Quade Cooper deep in talks about coming home from France as well. The Reds are even pushing to get the whole band back together and are targeting Will Genia and Scott Higginbotham as well.
But it is Houston’s signing that will send shock waves across the world, with the 29-year-old a much-loved backrower at Bath.
Houston was visited in England by Michael Cheika in March when the Wallabies coach went on an European tour with a mission to encourage ex-pats to return to Australia, play Super Rugby and become eligible to play for the Wallabies.
Houston said he was “chuffed and flattered” to be recognised by Cheika and the sales pitch clearly worked.
The 115kg no.8 still has a year to run on his contract with Bath but the QRU — presumably with ARU help — has lured Houston back to the Reds.
>>67380909
the article was longer than I thought it was and includes
>Storm winger Marika Koroibete is very close to signing with the Melbourne Rebels and ARU. Michael Cheika is a big fan of the flying Fijian and it would be no surprise to see Koroibete taken on the Spring Tour as a development player.

I just don't know why you bother. No one gives a fuck what you do irl. No one here sees you as a real person, so there's no point trying to convince us of anything. The whole namefag, life blog bullshit just smacks of desperation and can only make the people you're trying to impress ignore you even more than they already do. Anyway, enjoy your dinner.

Except that the reds have a very strong young group of players.
First season fly half who is doing ok.
Andrew Ready is a wob in waiting.
Samu Kerevi too.
Nick Frisby finally becoming a player rather than a guy who's just happy to be there.
Higginbotham coming back.

>>67383131
If you delete now it disadvantages those who havent played them yet because their draw will be harder.
I dont really care about H2H but you should consider that some people do
>>67383135
Ja I was thinking if they missed all rounds 9 and 10 picks then they could be kicked - it has the one downside of making the pool smaller which is worse for the eventual winner's honours but it will make the h2h better.

>>67385183
He's just had a good season for Connacht that's all
>>67385076
higher fitness standards, higher aggression, higher ball skills, ability to kick 60+metres.
ruckmen are literally 2nd rowers, and there are probably 100+ players that could transition to a union fullback.
if you don't see how this might benefit rugby (even if just the 4,5, and 15 jersey) then you need to stop posting.

>>67386076
Neither Hooper or McMahon can pack at 8, even though they play exactly like one. So either Pocock or Fardy have to pack at 8, and get given the jersey. Its the same thing as what we did all RWC.
This would all be so much easier if Fardy could just be a 2nd rower.

The Ulstermen™ are a name given to the various Ulster players. These may include Thomas 'Tommy' Bowe, Nicholas 'Nick' Williams and Andrew 'Andrew' Trimble.
Standing up for the Ulstermen™ is a chant usually sung before, during and after the game. often when tries are scored.

So me, my brother and my dad went to play some cricket in the evening. We went to a nearby school and saw some migrants playing volleyball there. So we wanted to start playing and in about 5 seconds they came to us and asked if they could play with us. They were super friendly and happy and we just played for about 2 hours. We couldn't communicate at all but it was great fun but also made me realise how shit I am. It was just so great to have some fun with them because they cope a lot of shit here and still were really laid back and relaxed. We're gonna catch up with them tomorrow again.

Double elimination bracket after a round robin of 4 pools that are randomly selected
>>67399043
The round robin is obviously for seeding in the elimination bracket for those who couldn't grasp that

awooo
>>67399043
>>67399060
>>67399260
absolutely NONE of this made sense
>>67399966
You do 2 round robin of 9 teams. This gives you 2 pools of 9 seeded best to worst. You then do a double elimination bracket to find the best single team aka the winner of the competition
It will take about the same number of weeks as it does to play through the tournament now except it removes the "darby" part of it and the bad teams no one watches get eliminated by week 10 or so
>>67400138
Are you suggesting only playing the other 8 teams in your pool once or twice?
Why double elimination?
>>67400229
Once that is how a round robin works
Double elimination because it gives good teams than happen against other good teams early on a chance to win still. It also gives more weeks of entertaining rugby with teams that should be peaking
>>67400229
If there's a draw in an elimination game they have two-man sack race on consecutive Sundays in an effort to reduce their magic number to 3.
