You lose some, you win some... unless you're Wales | Two Cents gets Distracted - A Rugby Podcast

Those timestamps are gold, thanks fellas.

[@benbryan4468]

As a Welsh fan, the title of this episode just upsets me 😆 Mark & Tony, become joint head coaches and lead us to victory!

[@AverageJonesRugby-r7z]

@@benbryan4468 I think the WRU really needs to take a good hard look at themselves and the general state of things related to your national team and then make some really hard choices. Your teams do well in the URC so it's not a player issue, I'd think about maybe contacting someone like Steve Hansen or Jacques Nienaber on a consultancy bases while looking toward permanent appointment. It's really disappointing to see an NH powerhouse struggle like this.

[@jimsquire-chestnuts8381]

Welsh back Gats as he took them into the 2019 World Cup ranked #1 in the world. But that was an alternative timeline

[@Munkey92]

NZ and RSA are like brothers with the backyard rugby rivalry...we love to beat it each other but we're still family after it all..

[@RozWentworth]

Saffa here...agree...rivalry runs deep...but respect even deeper between these two teams...

[@MaxPowerPT]

Portugal playing a friendly match in a stadium with 60.000 people is just so great. We are now 16 because of a idiotic home defeat against USA. I'm actually not very optimistic with this head coach, Lagisquet was on another level.

[@Goggawie]

Portugal, VASBYT

[@eughrologh]

Wales should have a Portugal or Georgia test so they have a chance of a win.

[@Poweroftouch]

Yea like Scotland do every year

[@nicolaasvanderkruk5029]

When you say "they" you're referring to Portugal or Georgia, right? 😄

[@handsolo1209]

I wonder how many Wales fans want relegation in the 6 Nations right now?

[@mikewartnaby]

It was so close, so badly wanted NZ to win 😢

[@DirtyDawgSailing]

As always. gold dust with a good sprinkle of rugby!

[@jimsquire-chestnuts8381]

Gonna use this video to explain the New Zealand accent to my students: “in the CAAH park”

[@mhoppy6639]

The best NZ accent is Graham Henry. He _really_ turns his e’s into I’s😂

[@mikewartnaby]

I always park far, guaranteed parking but longer walk, what you get in return is easy exit, rather than long queue while leaving and all your cold things get warm or long wait for closer parking.

[@michaelismichael4640]

Guys you didn't really talk about the Wales vs Aus game..... but I loved what you did talk about.

[@ivanmynhardt]

Its the same how people say Boks are lucky but its not luck. You apply enough pressure the bounce of the ball starts going your way.

[@LucrismLukas]

Kolbe vs Dupont debate is good for the sport of rugby. We got our own Messi vs Ronaldo thing going on. Great 👍😂

[@MU-TH-UR]

Unlike Messi & Ronaldo there was a golden time when these two played together in the same team ( Toulouse) and it was a deadly combo.

[@AverageJonesRugby-r7z]

Nah, Mark you guys are out of hand with these titles mate, there's a line! 😂🤣

[@TwoCentsRugby]

Tony write 'em 🤣

[@AE-ix2iz]

😂😂

[@philipduncan7044]

As a Welsh fan, I can assure you we're certainly not all sticking up for Gats!

[@sandorclegane3658]

With the ABs now losing on the regular, and not just in the big matches, it has totally sucked all the joy out of watching Tony cry. His tears still taste good just not the same 😢

[@groMMit1981]

"unless you're Wales" Ouch!

[@RiaanLouw]

Best Heel in Rugby must be there and Rieko is top nominee!

[@leonardodavinci7425]

Ireland had two opportunities to kick for points in the second half but stupidly opted for the corner, they could've won that game more comfortably

[@ConnorDelport-ff3dw]

Kiwis were certainly not sufficiently rewarded for scrum dominance

[@mhoppy6639]

Our last half decent scrum half was Matt Dawson. We’ve got no tradition at all really in producing worldie scrum-halves. Dewi Morris was exceptional but never developed his passing properly.

[@viehanvanrheedevanoudtshoo6205]

All Blacks are on track and are definitely back.

[@owennoble5257]

As a sad Welshman, I was going to put a comment on one of your videos saying about how I feel that some southern hemisphere commentators can tend to be more biased to there hemisphere than vice versa. After watching Wales v Australia I realise that in reality we are just shite

[@benbryan4468]

It's dark days indeed mate. You think Gatland should go? And it's not just Gatland, it's also some of the major players at the top of the WRU that also need to kick rocks

[@owennoble5257]

@@benbryan4468 Don't really care about Gatland don't think it matters, Abi Tierney and Nigel Walker need to go though

[@craictacular]

[@weitzf]

Why is it that refs/ TMO's always favour the higher ranked team? Ireland Vs Argentina for instance.

[@sandorclegane3658]

*Home team.

[@lee_Meehan]

Its amazing how quickly a view on a team can shift, Ireland won the 6 nations, went to SA and won a game down there, after a heart break world cup, then we lose to New Zealand and scrapped a win against a very good Argentina side and all of a sudden we're rubbish on the way out. And our media has been the worst offenders of this narrative, they're even attacking Jack Crowley, like came your tits.

[@hugomarx1324]

Don't let this distract you from the fact that Argentina won against Ireland but the ref decided to give it to Ireland.

[@AverageJonesRugby-r7z]

@@hugomarx1324 oh someone else noticed, did you see the Irish players faces after the match? They knew!

[@DarioOle-tp5tp]

​@AverageJonesRugby-r7z yeah i agree as well. There was multiple penalties ignored by tmo and ref in the last 2 minutes.

[@Sbu_Phakathwayo]

15:20 no no i can enjoy a kiwi lost against us Southerners but not never against the northerners

[@kristian762]

Agreed 🍻🇿🇦

[@patrickohara1653]

The population of Wales is just over 3 milliom, basically a city - The smallest population pool of all the top tier teams. This has to be a factor.

[@DabDabGoose]

NZ is only a couple of mil more, there is probably some factor in it but not the complete limiter.

[@stevebinning977]

The population of New Zealand is 5.2 million, and Ireland is about the same. Also, Wales has been a major force in world rugby in the past, so I'm not sure this argument stands up.

[@randyviper388]

Was wondering when this would come on, Tony you rosmini roach you gotta stop complaining about the ref mate abs had alot of chances to win that game, must be the rosmini losing mentality. Up the Swans 🦢 P.S PaknSave Wairau is the best

[@MarioGarcia-bf6mf]

Argentina will win the World Cup before Ireland and France.

[@AverageJonesRugby-r7z]

@@MarioGarcia-bf6mf truth!

[@T2Lam10]

They beat us in the 2022 final yes… Oh you’re talking rugby 😜 Before Ireland I’m willing to bet Before us I don’t think. We’ve been close many times. At some point it will fall on the right side. Our rugby system is very strong and I believe we’ll have a decent shot at the next 3-4 World Cup.

[@hannesbornman1045]

Rieko is not good at 13. Surely there has to be a pure 13 in NZ thats better?

[@StarLeo_]

Billy Proctor!

[@tim.jenkins75]

rugby media are soo fickle.... when Wales put 40 on Aus, rugby was dead in Australia and there was no way back... same for wales now.... its all nonsense... try reading " the drunkards walk " and keep everything in perspective !

[@DarioOle-tp5tp]

Pumas were robbed against the Irish. At least 4 penalties overlooked in that last play. Also robbed of an early try by Moroni. Clear try. Nothing wrong. No need to go back 100m to cancel the try for something minimum. Ridiculous decision. Not even a penalty. Also Argentina should've got a penalty try just before the break. Awful ref. 😤

[@HeidiHeidi-mh9ct]

I was disappointed with the officiating in the Ireland/Puma game. I felt the Argies were humiliated by an incompetent referee who made it all about himself.

[@LeMerch]

Ah you win some you lose some. Ref did what he could. Irish experience won out in the end and they are bleeding in newer players into pivotal positions so will always look a bit rusty.

[@Bobbydyland]

I don't know why the Ab's keep playing Reece. He's not as good as some of the other wingers you have, and the AB's look bad having a convicted woman abuser in the team. Telea is by far and away the best winger you have, probably the best in the world.

[@AverageJonesRugby-r7z]

@@Bobbydyland Cheslin Kolbe has entered the chat! 🤔

[@duncanwcraig9668]

Telea was injured. Reece is finished. I would rather have Narawa !

Agreed. Why risk the reputation for an average player when we have choices? We can actually do better all round.
