Haha, thought the same


Also Ellis isn't even French, so it's not "Typical France"

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

I think it's just some propaganda crap bad-mouthing the French without a proper reason.

I imagine Shaun Edwards would say summat similar, must be a Northern thing

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Edwards would add a lot about seeing you next tuesday, if the Lions DVD is anything to go off of

Really? These sound like good tactics to me. If a player is injured, you should target them. A world cup[ final is no place to be nice. Personally, with how McCaw played last week they can target him all they want. He can handle it.

Bad journalism at its finest (worst?).

Is he injured?

Huge effort from him against Aus, with the usual clever plays. No stress on his face in the end.

He's not injured.

...says the guy whose entire country has been trashtalking about France for ages.

edit : i was reacting to the "dirty pricks".

I just read that article on the French targeting McCaw. So be it, they'd be stupid to just target him. Nevermind we have the form number 6 of world rugby as well as one of, if not the best Number 8 on his day. **** thats right we also have a mammoth front row, the immortal Brad Thorne, and a backline most can only dream of. Please target McCaw France, it'll leave the rest of the team to run you over. I'm sure McCaw will relish in it.

The less we're predictable, the more newspapers make headlines...

 

[Tricia McMillan]

Anyone wonder if Richie McCaw's foot injury doesn't actually exist and they're making it all up in an attempt to provoke tactics like this?

I also thought this, but it would be safer to think that there is a concern.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

He's probably faking it to get out of training - apparently he only did the captains run last week

Lazy bar steward

Dear French Players
How are you today. i am fine. Hope you don't mind but, a wee word of advice, if I were you I would want to be getting on a plane to go home before my team gets demolished tomorrow night by a group of men in black shirts, they are very good players but not only that , they are close to breathing fire for all the horrible feelings they have suffered at your teams hands during 2 matches played in 1999 and 2007. They really are normal men underneath those black shirts but I if I said they'll be wanting to prove a point tomorrow night, it would be like saying Jonah Lomu was a reasonable Rugby player.
So when you hear a rumbling tomorrow night, don't be concerned about Earthquakes, it will just be the sound of 15 men in black and a few million people's Indignation at being stripped of something they feel was rightfully theirs a few years and finals matches ago
Kind regards
A few million All Black fans

I

I'd leave that kind of bullcrap until after the final mate, you never know. It's a one off match, on form I'd say NZ by 20 but you never know how the AB's are going to react in a final, seeing they haven't been there for a while . Sorry easy shot. And if the French play, they can play some damn good rugby.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

All I read was

Dear French Players
We're arrogant, you're crap
Kind regards
People giving AB fans a bad name
