what about allowing hands in the ruck or players on the floor to play the ball - breakdowns become a legitimate competition for the ball, encouraging defending teams to commit more players, and negates the hopeless reffing we are starting to see.
there are a few vids of him on RD of getting absolutely creamed - kudos to the guy for being prepared to carry on, but pride comes before the fall, eh?
Really looking forward to seeing the Pumas join the tri-nations, and I don't think they'll have to wait as long as Italy did before they get their first victory (over the aussies, probably).
Looked forward the 1st time around, 2nd time not so much, 3rd time looked for the linesman who was pretty well placed to spot it if ti was, so I'm gonna say it's the perspective.
don't see a problem with necessity - for teams that have "always" done it, let 'em continue. Don't really see why other nations need to invent an equivalent haka of their own either... personally can't imagine anything getting me fired up for a game like facing a war dance! Bring it!
