    @gunner Bye round next week. 3rd round play Highlanders at home.

    Bloody lucky!
    Youโ€™d assume theyโ€™ll stay out of Auckland do they can continue to train?

    @gunner Players may want to go back to their family though, esp those with children.

      @gunner all games could be canned next week. Unless they play them behind closed doors.

        Yep can be played in empty Stadiums under level 2, Blues don't have a game anyway, but that is only place where you couldn't play.

              have to say im surprised to see a couple of our forwards in the list (also saw regan listed in someone elses team of the week) given how the general consensus was out forwards were light weight

              also hilarious that Nareki made the team of the week but rugby pass also did a Top Five of the week and Garden-Bachop made it and nareki didn't

                @kiwiwomble Rugbypass are a strange bunch with their ridiculous player ratings system. I don't trust anything they write about players' performances, least of all any form of ranking.

                    This team of the week is a bit better. It still has McLeod at 12 though

                    Thats the problem when there's only 4 people playing a position a week. It's easy for none of them to be particularly good. I would have leaned towards Plummer by default because the other guys negatives were higher

                          @nzzp Yes, it has changed. I think this is the new rugby programme on Sky (in addition to games):

                          Sunday, 8.30pm: Rugby Nation
                          Monday, 8.30pm: Breakdown
                          Tuesday, 8.30pm: Aotearoa Rugby Pod
                          Tuesday, 10.00pm: Rugby Heaven Live (about Rugby AU)
                          Wednesday, 8.30pm: Playmakers (Justin Marshall with a special guest, this week Robbie Deans)
                          Wednesday, 9.00pm: Rugby Stories Throwback (an old game discussed in the programme Playmakers, this week Crusaders v Waratahs 2002)

                            I don't think I'll ever take anything rugbypass has to offer seriously after reading the players to watch and team of the week stories.

                                Are they even local writers? I won't use "journalist".

                                I only read the occasional RugbyPass article posted here, but I am not familiar with the majority of the names.

                                      An ok news source. Poor opinion source.

                                      I presume they are still owned by Sky NZ? They purchased the site a few years ago

                                        Their player rating system is the worst

                                          @nepia This is the first I've come across them.

                                          Really? They've been frequently posted on here. ๐Ÿ™‚

                                          Haven't noticed any of their dross previously.
