Other games this weekend

Thought Skeltons lift and slam was way worse than what Latu did even though he initiated the move. Skelton deliberately physically lifted Whitelock and slammed him down then stood there looking down on him until one of the Crusaders started laying into him. This isn't the first time - he always seems to tackle like this. Noticed it in the Brumbies game when he did some sus high tackles and lifts on much smaller guys. I don't think he's the full quid upstairs. But am amazed that he gets cited when he didn't even cop a card at the time. Although on Whitelock he wouldn't have felt a thing on his head.

Don't think he's even the full penny upstairs. Reminds me of Jaws in the James Bond films.

Don't worry Mumms the word... More money the ARU will have to fork out on players

Late got 4 weeks and Skelton got 2 weeks - Warratahs to appeal and Skelton travelling to SA

And for John Eales to describe Skelton as "highly skilled" baffles me

I dunno, it can't be easy to drop a guy on his head from two metres in the air.

You did watch the Rebels/Force game last night?

That was a true stinker!

Can I ask a ??? Are we getting Tapuai and Lance ... The commentators are good at telling us who is going and who is staying over east in the games but no mention of anyone coming west.. Is this a rumour or is it official.. Or is it that we don't exsist andthey can't lowerthemselves to say the words Western Force in Perth..

I didn't say our game wasn't boring too. But as the Reds and Tahs are choc-a-block with Wallabies and 'state-of-origin' passion, I kinda expected more from that fixture. Guess for me it just highlights the gulf between Aus rugby and Kiwi rugby.
