@robhicky @PlanetRugby What are you referring to?

[Michael Chronican @mikechron]

@haribaldijones @PlanetRugby These “leaks” and tbf vids like this do nobody any good just gets fans from both sides backs up and the discourse on here derails quickly and for what? Nothing changes the outcome and the whole rugby values/ respect between fans goes out the window

@FucktheShots @martindevlinnz @BMcSport @worldrugbymedia “Knew”

@_RFH10_ My guess is that with the depth of the Boks squad and they way the bench is used especially when it’s a 7-1 it’s hard for any Bok players to statistically compare to other nation’s players and when they look back over the year stats would be how they assess it

@AnalystGus @khumalomphe1 @jaredwright17 Personally I don’t think margin of victory matters. Boks an all time team because of the B2B achievement. There was also plenty of discrediting of NZ in 2011, only won due to ref/ can only win world cups at home, YouTube videos braking down every decision and why NZ were lucky

@AJMRoss @benny_alexander This probably explains a lot of his logic

@TheACCnz That full commentary needs to be put out as a podcast

@rugby_podcast One of the best games I have watched. Couldn’t sit was pacing around the lounge the whole game

[Michael Chronican @mikechron]

What a hell of a game #IREvNZL

[Michael Chronican @mikechron]

@bensmithrugby I mustn’t be good at counting but I make it 5 starting crusaders or 1/3 of the starting team from that franchise and 2 more on the bench

@rugby_podcast I lived in Australia during the wallabies golden age and never expected to feel sorry for wallabies fans but this is grim

[Michael Chronican @mikechron]

@LurganDub @rugbyworldcup @Paramourdurugby @SocieteGenerale Maybe he watched the 2019 1/4 final 😜

@BrendanOMalley3 @shandezjosh @real_cabbage @drew_mitchell @Springboks Could still have 8 subs but can only use 5 so you have coverage for the unlikely event a full front row gets hurt and needs to come off and still have coverage around the park

NZ economy should be ok come Monday #AUSvNZL

@jonboy_avfc @SAFCKiwi @EnglandRugby Jesus 3 years ago but if we play that game guess All blacks take the semi final win in 95 and move on as well seems just as relevant
