    It's becoming harder and harder to watch for sure

    Mostly because of the continual rule changes every season so not only are the spectators confused by even the players look like they are

    The code needs an enema. Infact, it needed one years ago.

    I think Rugby has a hell of a lot of potential as a spectacle. There are certain elements to the game that have the potential to be breathtaking at times. Think back to some of those classic Bledisloe Cup games from the 90's where plenty of tries were scored.

    But good games, played and refereed the right way are as rare as hens' teeth nowadays. I don't know how the IRB can shake things up, and they appear to be too arrogant to entertain anything too radical, so.......

    Another dropped ball

    Can't believe I am saying this but the Reds are quite easily the best team to watch of all the Australian teams in the s14

    This is the only game where the refs interpretation of the rules or lack thereof has much more bearing on the results than any other footy code. Can be very frustrating from a punter's point of view.

    The ebb and flow of the game is NOTHING like league. It's no wonder then that all the big name league defactors who've left for the big $$$ has returned to the more exciting game of league.

    This is not to say that NRL is perfect by any means, far from it.But at least this game is so much more entertaining to watch.

    At least Hickey realises how shit Barnes is playing and hooks him with 25min to go

    If Cooper and Giteau aren't the 10 and 12 for the Wallabies sack Deans I say

    Brumbies, Tahs and Reds all win

    Now we only need the Farce to beat the Bulls and the Aussies get a clean sweep this round

    Crusaders the only Kiwi team worth watching this season. All the other teams can't even do basic things like catch and pass

    Tahs v Brumbies on ANZAC day weekend will determine which of the Aussie teams make the semi final IMO
