    Richie McCaw Eyes move to Australian Super Rugby Club...

    ok so if you saw this heading and Richie has decided to retired from NZ Rugby and play a season for an Australian Super Rugby team for a year or two before moving to France provincial rugby and retirement altogether - would you welcome him into your team, considering all the shit we've laid on him over the years

    Apology for misspelt poll

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    he would bring a lot of experience for younger players, especially int he big games - and maybe a few trade secrets about NZ rugby tactics .. I'm going to be honest and say yeah I would!!

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    More than just how to cheat legally - he is a good leader, not necessarily a style that I like but he has the ability to lead and read a game - an excellent mentor - Pocock, Hodgson, Brown and McCalman would no longer be world class after his masterclass they'd be legends

    He was quite endearing in that paper mache thing last year, but I'd rather have Dan Carter.

    We don't need him, perhaps he should go to a team which needs a quality loosie like the Brumbies

    Why would we need McCaw when we already have Pocock, Hodgson etc?

    As a hypothetical question, then yes of course!
    Would I welcome (insert "want", of course I would welcome him if it was a done deal) him into the Force in 2013, would be a tough one, but our existing players could only improve under his mentorship and increased competition for caps.
    And we would then have the two best Captains in SR in Perth
