This is what I think of these international teams from my point of view (I'm a NZer btw):

NZ: Best team in the world but not as great as it appears Northern Hemisphere people think they are. Often appears some NH teams don't put in as much effort against them because they've already ruled themselves out, when they actually have a chance.

Wales: 2nd/3rd best team. Alright in the past but easily the best NH team at the moment. Good coach. Could see them whitewashing their Aus tour this year. Should have made the World Cup final. Some really good backs.

SA: 2nd/3rd/4th best team. Has many great players but seems to be let down by their managers/coaches/rugby board having issues. Best kickers in the world.

Aus: 3rd/4th best team. Pretty average over the last 4 years due to major redevelopment of the team but getting better by the year. Lots of young talent.

England: 5th best. Probably the best overall NH team over the last decade. Could be better but seems let down by players playing for themselves rather than the team. Decent long term captain/coach wouldn't hurt.

Argentina: 6/7/8th best. That awesome/random country, away from everyone else, that seems to stay a top tier nation while playing very little international rugby. Should be one of the best in the future now they're in the 4 nations competition. Most players seem like they are either old or bald young.

Ireland: 6/7/8th best. Fairly average NH team. Never amazing, never horrible. Not much else to say really.

France: 6/7/8th best. The most unpredictable team in the world. Only they can lose to Tonga and then come second in the World Cup in the same month.

Samoa: 9/10/11th best. Lots of good/massive players for the size of their country. Probably could be really good if the above teams didn't steal some of their best players and they had a bit more money. No longer a easy win.

Italy: 9/10/11th best. Crap team that gradually improved to a respectable level over the last decade. Some good players. Has club problems I hear though . . .

Scotland: 9/10/11th best. Once respectable team gradually getting worse. Needs to be sorted out so they don't become a minnow. ]]> Rugby Discussion bric6 http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47491-Team-Impressions http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47490-Simon-Dwyer-the-latest&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 23:01:24 GMT Apparently he now has movement in his arm which is great news!!

I'm sorry if there is a thread i should go to for this, i had a little look and couldnt find any.
But i keep spotting different patches and mods and i was wondering if anyone could tell me (or link me would be even better) what I need, the essential requirements of patches and such in order to get RC on PC and have it updated fully to level that the mods can achive? squads, strips, comps etc?

I have only ever had 1 modded pc game before and my mate set that up for me so im a bit of a noob about all this kind of thing. so i guess its safe to say im looking for a "Noob Guide to fully mod RC for PC"

Cheers,
Tom.

8. Matthew Scott

Queensland will herald the end of a legend’s career and the beginning of another’s with coach Mal Meninga naming Petero Civoniceva and Matt Gillett in a 19-man squad for the opening game of the 2012 State of Origin series.

Last year it was the emotion-charged farewell for captain Darren Lockyer that inspired Queensland to victory and the send-off theme is set to continue with the Maroons’ 30-game veteran, Civoniceva, to play in his last ever Origin series.

Civoniceva announced last week that he would retire from rugby league at the end of the season, but the selectors had no hesitation in picking the 36-year-old to line up in his 12th consecutive Origin series.

Twenty-three-year-old Broncos forward Gillett was just 12 when Civoniceva made his debut for Queensland and will now make his Origin debut alongside the iconic forward, after winning the race for the utility spot in front of Manly halfback Daly Cherry-Evans and Bulldogs fullback Ben Barba. Cherry-Evans has been named as 18th man.

Cowboys centre Brent Tate won the vacant wing spot after incumbent Jharal Yow Yeh’s season was ended in a sickening leg injury in Round 4, while Queensland selectors also made a statement by sticking solidly behind Darius Boyd who was picked on the other wing despite heightened speculation about his form.

The scene is set for a brutal and bruising opening encounter at Melbourne’s Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, May 23, with Queensland naming a monstrous bench containing Gillett (104kg), Rabbitohs tearaway David Taylor (122kg) and Australian enforcers Ben Hannant (106kg) and David Shillington (114kg).

Major Talking points:

• Brent Tate wins the vacant wing spot

• Darius Boyd retains other wing spot

• Petero Civoniceva to get the send-off he deserves

• Matt Gillett to make Origin debut

• Queensland have a monster-sized bench ]]> Rugby League Discussion anada http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47485-2012-Origin-Champions http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47484-NSW-centres-should-really-be...&goto=newpost Sun, 13 May 2012 17:42:37 GMT Matt Cooper and Jamie Lyon.

Hated-
1. Micheal Ennis- Just an all-round d***head all he really does is niggle then wonders why he gets smacked in the mouth.
2. Corey Parker- Same as Micheal Ennis just dosent take it as far as Ennis.
3. Jarryd Hayne- He is just really arrogant.
4. Darius Boyd- See Hayne

Favourite-
1. Anthony MInichiello- As a roosters fan it's not hard too see why he's my favourite player and also because he's exciting to watch and seems to be a great bloke.
2. Shaun Johnson- He's just fun to watch
3. Ben Barba- See Johnson
4. Jared Wearea-Hargreaves- Everyone loves a guy who can put a big hit on everyone but he needs to control his anger so he dosent give a penalty every time he tackles someone. ]]> Rugby League Discussion kwyjibo22 http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47483-Your-Most-Hated-Favourite-Players-and-Why http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47482-Easts-and-co&goto=newpost Sun, 13 May 2012 11:20:04 GMT As I carried on with in the off season and at the start of the year, Morris is a class centre, one of the best in the game.

I'm currently working on second big Super 15 update. Its almost done, however I need some help when it comes to the Australian players.

There are quite a few players missing from some squads and I have a feeling some players are a bit over/under rated so it would be awesome if someone could have a go at making/changing players to reflect the competition this year.

I would do it myself, however, I don't have that great a knowledge of the Australian players at the moment and have many assignments due at the moment so not much spare time.

Any help would be appreciated!! ]]> General Discussion bric6 http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47480-We-need-you!!! http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47479-WARNING-tonights-games-not-live&goto=newpost Fri, 11 May 2012 07:20:24 GMT the games are not live tonight. first game starts at 7 but due to 9 being stupid they are telvising the Block the games are not live tonight. first game starts at 7 but due to 9 being stupid they are telvising the Block ]]> Rugby League Discussion Broncos nut http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47479-WARNING-tonights-games-not-live http://forums.sidhe.co.nz/showthread.php?47478-Custom-Balls-And-Mods&goto=newpost Thu, 10 May 2012 11:28:18 GMT Didn't Know where to put these
