Hanson extract&#8230;
Assistant coach Steve Hansen wasn&#8217;t hiding from the issue upon arriving at the All Blacks&#8217; High St hotel.
Rugby was in need of an entertaining and free-flowing test match.
&#8220;Kicking has overtaken most of the game,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They tried to change all the rules [with the ELVs] [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Well&#8221; said the doctor, &#8220;this is a very delicate operation and there is a lot that can go wrong.  I will have to remove half your brain&#8221;. 
&#8220;That&#8217;s OK&#8221; said the Kiwi.  &#8220;I&#8217;ve always wanted to be an Aussie and I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

Extract&#8230;
Rugby personality Murray Mexted has claimed he was suspended from the Sky commentary team after criticising plans to cull four teams from the Air New Zealand Cup.

How to win rugby games?
7-0 vs the All Blacks.
Hmmmm.
Well I can say that if a team is losing to another team on consecutive meetings then the issue are:

Zip zap &#8216;Conrad&#8217; scores !!
Hanson: In charge of the backs, and on first impressions what a great improvement. Just proves how useless Wayne Smith was at forming a back line attack. We saw some structured attacks, great stuff !
Henry: In charge of the forwards, and once again on first impressions &#8216;much better&#8217;, but not &#8220;BOK&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Question: Why was Hanson moved away being the forward coach, and Henry has been self appointed as forwards coach of the ABs?
Short Answer: Hanson was an ELV lover, and when the laws changed this year, he didn&#8217;t change, hence we saw with the three test matches against the BOKs the ABs forwards beaten!
Mauls (esp) scrums and lineout are [...]]]></description>
