in my scenario, he was not MEANT to come back. So that actually works into the plan! (unless he wants to watch the show, in which case he becomes a soft cock!) Well, only a little bit.

how about 'won't be long honey, just a quick dash to the loo' that oughta do it.

Wow. Just wow. I mean I did not see that league game he references (surprising huh?) but even as much as I dislike league for it's boredom from the little comparisons I have made between super league (I think that is the english league?) vs australian league, the super league is even a rung...

thought the same thing too. tells my gut that means only 'wallabie coat tail hanger-onerers' are watching. a proper rugby fan would have watched. real sad, shows how few genuine rugby fans there are in australia (if my hypothesis is correct)

Actually, I did wonder if that was the plan. Bet they make money off IQ units. Sorry qwerty, I guess I should have/tried to make the point that if you want to know the results beforehand (as you say, each to their own) then it is very easy to do agreed? BUT, you have little choice when they...

OR, I could do that in another viewing whilst maintaining the integrity of the first watching. Anyway, we disagree on this point so that's it from me. thanks

well I can only speak for myself, but to me knowing the result beforehand kinda defeats the purpose. After all, is that what sport is about? For example, the other game (jap vs SA) that annoyingly I found out about, well you lose the drama of 'will they or won't they', 'can they or not' of...

great game, enjoyed it. Did the right thing today, no GAGR, no ROAR, did not even think of looking at a site on the internet to avoid any hints of the games replayed today or their results. Plan the viewing, the full replays stared at midday with the aus game. woohoo, avoided all of the...

yeah, these good intentions (don't listen to news etc etc) can bite you in the arse. The day after the japan sa game I did not read the roar, avoided GAGR, did not listen to news, the whole kit bag. Was on another (STEREO) forum that day, did not read the rugby thread, or the world cup thread...

fair enough..as long as it does not end up as oops on the triple word

doesn't matter HOW, surely being the first to win RWC three times would qualify as the greatest

I only quoted you to like this part very much. It's funny how much you forget and only be reminded after seeing it again, but bring back the scrums as they were during the early world cup years. bang, done and dusted. only mention the early world cup years as that is what has been being played.

pretty damned sure. wall to wall rugby atm

I could not find much real info on when games were broadcast (I only have foxtel) but I googled the foxsports schedule and yeah, for sure, they play the games live but it seems they broadcast repeats often enough. I only looked on sat and sun, but I am assuming all of the games will be repeated...

the only thing going for this is that you said schools. You'd be pretty miffed if you forked out full dollar only to find out others got it for free. Pretty slippery slope tho, you run the risk of people not coughing up *knowing* they only have to wait to get discount tickets.

Holden cup, is that the league one? We are all after more rugby broadcast, hopefully with an eye one day to more FTA exposure. For that to be a success it MUST be entertaining. We don't get too many bites at that cherry. I get a purist such as yourself might sniff a little at what you saw...

echoing working class rugger here, does it really matter what the score is as long as it is entertaining? I found it hugely entertaining personally. Far better than any drudge fest league game score notwithstanding.

must say am pleasantly surprised with the quality of rugby on show. good signs.

still got a woody?

sure, but you cannot simply use *this* as your rebuttal. After all, there will be times when it is completely apt. (I'm not saying you are right or wrong in this case, just pointing out the limitations of this line)
