    Hi TwoCents. I know it’s not the topic of your video but you’ve recently done a few videos on new rules of the game and I thought of one and wanted your “two cents” on my idea. So we’ve seen a lot of cards given to mistimed runs or Fassi vs Wales case when competing for high balls. Obviously, as someone who has had multiple head injuries in sport, I am all for making the game safe (within reason). So my proposition is that when a team kicks a high ball, why not ban jumping for the ball? It will prevent the chance of someone overrunning and flipping someone or the possibility of the catcher losing balance and kicking out connecting with the chaser. I reckon it will be similar to when the break foot rule was implemented in scrums. The hookers gave away a few penalties in the beginning but eventually got used to it and now we hardly see a break foot penalty.

    • @wouterswanepoel5753
      @wouterswanepoel5753 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I get you, and agree. I would suggest that the attacking (kicking) team may not compete for the ball, but can only tackle the receiver once he's in control of the ball.

    NZ has problems in key positions - at half back Roigard and Hotham are clearly the future and one is injured and one is still to raw. First five is the same - we are still looking for the next decent one there. Fullback is also a problem, with Jordan turning into a full-blown hanger queen. Lock isn't so bad but again the future seems to be the likes of Darry and Strange both of whom are deemed not ready yet.

  • @D4N1CU5
    @D4N1CU5 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Possible? Sure. Probable? Unlikely.
    French and Welsh most likely to get up from the NH teams I think, home ground advantage for the boks and ABs is going to be enough to see off two very strong opponents.
    What I would like to see are Ireland over the boks, Wobs over the Welsh, Argies over the French and as an Australian it's very hard to choose but probably the English over the ABs, even if it's just to create a bit of history.
    All 4 matchups are intriguing for different reasons and a clean sweep either way is not impossible so should be a good couple weeks of rugby.

    Excellent matchups! I'm sure the Boks will at last get a win against the Irish, but two wins? With home advantage, yes, perhaps they will. With New Zealand not having played as a team since RWC, with a few stalwarts now missing and with a new coach, I think their chances of a series win are not too good. England is now a formidable team and having played the full 6 Nations and Japan since RWC, I just feel that they may be the more settled team. Shared series, methinks. Joe Schmidt is no pumpkin and with Wales probably still at the bottom of their current cycle, I believe the Aussies will get a 2-0 series win. I find it difficult to decide between Los Pumas and Les Bleus, so I just have to go for a split series. Fantastic rugga awaiting us all! Enjoy chaps ... and may the best sides win!

      It's not only Dupont missing, that being said France should have won in Australia in similar circonstances and à lot of these 2nd string players know It's à massive opportunity for them to get into the team so they'll probably play their heart out so who knows? I still tend to think Argentina are too good à team for it to happen, it will be interesting as a test of France's depth woch didn't seem all that great during last years 6 nations

    I'm going to put a little money on England for the first test. Not sure they will do it, but think the bookies are overvaluing NZs edge. I think this will be the closest of the old tri-nations vs Northern hemisphere series.
    I think SA will batter Ireland. It would be close at home, but not sure this Ireland side as the ability to beat the Boks away. Ireland are lacking depth and SA are 3-4 deep in many positions.
    Wales are a shitshow. Danny Care suggested the camp was even less happy than we think it is. Tompkins said the style they were trying to play was boring. They don't have the athletes to play WarrenBall. Aus do still have good players and Joe S is a good coach.

    I've been in Europe for a while so I've been following a lot more of French rugby. They're taking a side to Argentina with 10 (Ten!) players of 21 years and younger. Some of them should be at the U20 WC, but they think that it's better for their development to go to Argentina. Anyhow, lots of rugby over the weekend with NZ v Eng over my breakfast.

    I don't see a win for either IRE or ENG but do think that England could surprise. If they play to the level of they did in their last two games of the 6N, then the AB's could be in for a hell of a fight. I would love if Ireland cause an upset and get a win but am not feeling confident right now for my country. Just feel we are a bit predictable now and seem to be losing the mot important battle of the breakdown for all the big games. Scrum is not looking great either and god only knows how the line-out will function. On top of that we have a raging Boks team who delight in taunting us and letting us know how much they want to beat the crap pout of us. Yeah. Not feeling too confident at all. Aussies and France to win the other two games but ARG could pull off an upset maybe.

  • @loughrey101
    @loughrey101 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My biggest concern for Ireland is no JGP. That's like France going to South Africa without Dupont. Ireland's ruck speed and ability to control the game is massively hampered by his absence. Ireland's two replacements hasn't had a lot of international game time in the past 12 months. That's one of the downsides of Andy Farrell's tendency to never rotate his team: when players that get 90% of the game time in their positions become unavailable for big games, it leaves a massive experience gap. They will massively depend on the experience of Conor Murray as his replacement had effectively been relegated completely to water boy duties for the past 2 years. Half backs is the most important positions in rugby and this time Ireland will be autopilot both Sexton and JGP in contrast to the Springboks that will have both Pollard and Faf de Klerk. If Ireland lose the series it will be in the massive void in the half back positions that they lose it.

  • @Florida6719

    Interesting that a lot of people think England can win, the series, should be close games but I believe they will lose both, Ireland, South Africa is a tough one , SA should do it, but it would be toughest game of all the Southern Hemisphere teams, Australia should beat Wales, Wales been really poor , Argentina, would lose against France, but I might be wrong on all accounts.
    If South Africa play the way they can, then Ireland at their best will still not be good enough, but SA need to be at their best 😀

    With our developing 9 & 10 there are new combinations to unlock through the whole lot of talent positioned critically throughout the 3/4. I don’t think we’ll be kicking all of our ball possession away this time. At least I hope not.

Ask most real Irish fans about the upcoming 2 test match tour and they will tell you that they are not confident of a win in either match - last 2 matches Ireland played against England & Scotland in the 6N were very close. We see the recent form of Leinster & Munster as an indication that a rebuilding of the national team is a must. The age profile of the current squad has a number of players over 30+ - they most likely will not feature in the 2027 WC. What better way to find out where exactly the team currently is than against the #1 ranked team South Africa?
