Worth the watch. To see a young Papa. He's a handsome bugger.😍😍

@domesticanimal @JohnJCampbell You ability to draw a caricature is so weak, you still need to name people in your cartoons who have been public figures for years and in Winston’s case for decades. You are not very good at this, are you ? Suggest you ask Emmerson for basic drawing lessons.

@tauhenare There are six of us in cabinet - they say that’s the most ever. Is that true ? If not, when were there more ? Surely there’s nothing to worry about ?

@skysportnz Looking at the comments below, it’s obvious Sth Africans think it’s great. NZ’ers not so much. We heard frequently how important winning the final for their country was for SA because it is in such a mess. As NZ’ers, we should accept this affects their inability to be objective.

@Conon6498 @shananhalbert @nzlabour @chrishipkins @CarmelSepuloni @NgatiBird Support for business ? Are you crazy ! Have you forgotten our roots ? Surely we have to ‘SMASH THE BOSS CLASS’. This is the principle on which the Labour Party was founded and the sooner we return to it, the better. Micky Savage would be turning in his grave.

@CathChidgey SPCA should have known better - poor cat must have been terrified, not being able to see where it was going.

@JeanMichel252 @jaredwright17 @ForeverSportsOn @PJacquesMichel Sth African cheats !

@Infideliter2022 Only US$28 billion ! That’s nothing. Our Waka Kotahi could do it for 5 times that price, take 4 times as long to build AND it would be half the length.

@AllBlacks Italy 18 (6 x penalties) New Zealand 15 ( 3 x unconverted tries wide out)

@martindevlinnz From memory we’ve never won a men’s RWC with Labour in power. Country goes all soft for some reason when they are in - apparently it’s the taking part that counts, not if you win or lose.

[Iseeyou123 @worldiswatchu]

These people are complete idiots 😂😂😂😂

Imagine being a journalist and not realising - this isn't a photo from the 90s, and it's serial killer Fred West 🤡🤡🤡

@thegraphmaker @RugbyInsideLine Except it was confirmed he didn’t actually make contact with Marx’s head. Facts are such a nuisance, aren’t they…

[Peter Michel @petemichel49]

@RugbyInsideLine The issue, surely, is that it was confirmed he didn’t actually make contact with Marx’s head, despite the South African cheat claiming he did, at the time.

[Peter Michel @petemichel49]

@tauhenare The All Blacks have never won a (men’s) RWC when Labour is Govt. For some reason, when the “gaggle of gays”,as Damian O’Connor calls his own party, take over, competition and striving to do better is seen as a bad thing across all levels of society and the country goes soft. Sad.

[Rugbycology @rugbycology]

Considering that most Aus players come from private schools, where they play very little rugby in season (maybe 12 games a year?) and how little rugby is played in Super Rugby - is the problem in Oz not a simple one: not enough time to develop? @ChristypDoran

[Rugbycology @rugbycology]

#AllBlacks started 10 attacks in own 22. Exited 10 times. 80% of scrums played beyond phase 1. 90% from lineouts. Secured 100% of restarts and exited at 100%. Their fundamentals are supreme.

[Rugbycology @rugbycology]

Big plus for the Wallabies is their 7 clear line breaks.

But also this pearler stat:

On average the Kiwis required 7.5 phases to score and had to make 13.5 passes to do so. Not mane teams have this skillset.

[Rugbycology @rugbycology]

Lets then end with this;

#Allblacks had 6 attack starts in opponent 22 and scored 3 of those times for a 50% conversion rate.

#Wallabies had 6 attacks in opp 22 and scored 0 times for 0 conversion rate.

Points first, always.
