We all know the Chiefs are the best team in Super Rugby

Hmmm. Daniel Rona, in at centre for ALB, scored 2 tries for the Chiefs, so ALB didn’t seem to be missed on attack. On D, ALB is regularly beaten on the outside, done for pace, and there’s no way he could have stopped at least two of Sullivan’s tries, unless he could have magically reversed Scooter’s yellow card. Love to see Razor invest in the future, the likes of Higgins and Proctor and AJ, and bring the international curtain down on the perennial strugglers at test level, the ALBs and Havilis. The French series would be ideal.

Maro Itoje Lions captaincy all but confirmed

I remember the moment clearly staring at my empty wallet, heart sinking, hands clammy. My Bitcoin was gone. It had vanished into the digital void after I mistakenly clicked on a convincing phishing link. Weeks of saving, investing, and watching the market  gone in seconds. I tried everything contacted my wallet provider, scoured forums, filed reports. Nothing worked. Everyone told me the same thing: “Once it’s gone, it’s gone.”  I was on the verge of giving up when I came across a thread mentioning NanoAethosCoinRecovery. It sounded too good to be true like every other so called “recovery service”, but something about the way people described their professionalism gave me a sliver of hope. I reached out, expecting radio silence or empty promises. Instead, I got a prompt reply. They were direct, transparent, and cautious not promising miracles, but laying out a clear process. They asked for all relevant details, conducted a blockchain forensic analysis, and traced the stolen coins through layers of obfuscation and mixing. NanoAethosCoinRecovery didn’t just recover my Bitcoin they restored my faith in justice in the crypto world. I learned a hard lesson, but thanks to them, it didn’t end in defeat. Now, I triple-check every link I click, but I also know who to turn to if things go south again.

What went wrong for the Blues after their championship breakthrough

It’s a battle when you just don’t have the cattle. What went wrong for the Blues this year is precisely what went wrong for the Crusaders last year. It’s not rocket science. A pack starting regularly with fledgling Super players like Fusitua, Josh Beere, Cam Christie and Anton Segner, (no matter how promising they are) is not going to produce the same impact as a pack with Ofa, Sam Darry, Akira Ioane and Dalton Papail’i. Sotutu also started late and was banned for 3 games, and Cam Suafoa’s illness deprived them of a big like-for-like Akira type No. 6. Given all that, they are still in the hunt for top 6, which is a tribute to their leadership, particularly Paddy Tuipolotu, who has been the form lock week in week out, and is always gracious and measured in his after-game interviews.

Why ‘the curse of the Bambino’ is still stronger than ever at Leinster

Five meters from the goal line. One minute to go. Leinster has 15 players, Saints only 13. They get that penalty.

They tried the trick play after using it twice successfully.


Why not a BLOODY scrum? 15 to13, FFS! Five meters to go, two extra backs!?


🤦‍♂️


The horror of not using your brain and not THINKING!

Not really .Chiefs didn’t win either and look where the Blues are this year. Past history goes back over several seasons and Crusaders are usually at the forefront. Can be forgiven for an occasional aberration.

Sophie de Goede: Returning from injury with 'edge and physicality'

Excellent player and hope she gets back for the WC, but it sounds as if she will be seriously undercooked in terms of playing time. It’s taken quite a while for some other world class players to get properly up to speed recently after serious injuries.

Well said. The Chiefs may have more international caps on bench.But I think we have the better one . Ioane Moananu, Corey Kellow, JamesO’Connor, Jamie Hannah, Kyle Preston , Dallas McLeod, George Bower. etc , all in cracking form. They bring some different to the table from the ones that start.

‘Rising force’ Proctor gives All Blacks Ioane dilemma

Proctor is superior to Ioane in every facet of the game, including defence. Rieko had one of the lowest tackle percentages in international rugby last year (for centres) at just 73.44%, which is 31st out of 33 centres that played a min of 240 minutes.


In Super Rugby this year his tackle percentage is better at 81.01%, putting him 14th out of 16 kiwi centres (min 180 minutes). Proctor is on 100%, albeit with a smaller sample size.


Proctor is also a better distributor and kicker (Ioane hasn’t kicked once this year). Rieko has passed the ball 3.9 times per game compared to Proctor’s 11.6. Billy dominates in almost all attacking stats this year.


Rieko’s gotta go.

Sevens flyer moves to fullback as Australia U20 make mass changes

My daughter had warned me multiple times about the risks of crypto scams, but I never imagined I would fall victim to one. It all started when I came across an ad on YouTube for an “Ethereum mining pool” that promised high returns with minimal effort. Passive income was too tempting, and I didn’t think twice. Unfortunately, what I believed was a legitimate investment opportunity was a sophisticated scam. I lost 18 ETH, my entire retirement savings. The regret and despair I felt were overwhelming. It wasn’t just the money, but the fear of how I would secure my future. I did not know how to get it back or where to start. That's when a friend recommended Tech Cyber Force Recovery. At first, I was skeptical. After all, I had already lost so much, and I had no idea who could help me now. However, after contacting them, I was surprised at how understanding and patient they were with my situation. They assured me they had the tools and expertise to trace my lost funds, and I decided to give them a chance. Tech Cyber Force Recovery did exactly what they promised. Not only did they track down the funds, but they also uncovered the full scope of the scam operation. It was a complex network, involving multiple players across borders. The team worked tirelessly, collaborating with international exchanges and law enforcement to identify the culprits and retrieve as much of my money as possible. In the end, they recovered 17 ETH, 94% of what I had lost. What truly impressed me was their professionalism and compassion. They didn’t just treat me like another case; they treated me like a person. When they learned I was a retiree, they even waived part of their fee, which was an incredibly kind gesture. I was beyond grateful for their support and expertise throughout the process. If you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, don’t give up hope. Tech Cyber Force Recovery is a miracle worker with a heart of gold. I highly recommend them to anyone facing a similar situation.    Telegram   (@)techcyberforc    mail   Techcybersforcerecovery(@)cyberservices(.)com

Brendan Fanning: 'Leinster have the best-resourced squad in these islands but can’t make it pay.'

What is with slagging the ref. Cullen hasnt said it as the ref was right.


It wasnt a penalty try. VdF had placed the ball so couldnt place it again. So the play would have to have gone through a ruck and from that point you cannot assume a try would be scored!


Byrne played the ball off his feet when he touched down.


No try but penalty and yellow as it was so close to the line. If the ref had called it different would have been wrong.

‘Rising force’ Proctor gives All Blacks Ioane dilemma

This is a recurring problem. Players deciding in which position they wish to play in. Three current ABs BB,Dmac and Ioane have told the selectors this and its a problem here too.

The next step is they start saying how they want to play.

Player power is something that needs to be stamped on.
