I was at the first game played at ANZ (Telstra Stadium) between Aus and England. Our seats were in the second last row, and I was stunned at how steep it was. Halfway through the first half a guy is struggling up the stairs with a tray of beers, and he stops and looks around in dismay. Someone...

My wife was speaking with someone who used to teach the Skelton kids. She said that Cam was the natural talent, but Will was the grafter, the one who put the effort into getting better. This seems to match your view on his play in the U20 cup

Well put, but I had a very different experience. I was in the stadium members section. it was a weird mix of old rich people, their bratty teenage kids, and hardcore league fans getting into rugby.

Give me 50 minutes and I'll get my big Willie out

the biggest issue is that he'd loiter on the wrong side of the runway and not allow any legitimate planes to access their terminal

Tahs success this year has been via their big blokes smashing the opposition halves and back row. I trust them to play the same game this weekend, with the same result. Yes, read and McCaw looked good last week, but they didn't have Douglas, Jackpot and Palu throwing themselves into every ruck...

to be matched by the 2006 tahs, who lost Wendell in the pre game of the last round, went down to the canes in Sydney, meaning they had to fly to play the canes in Wellington for the semi and went down again.

2002 isn't so long ago that I don't remember it. LEt's not fuck with the team too much

west?

an FYI for anyone taking kids. A GA family ticket is $55. Bargain, yes. But if you enter the promo code FAMILY you can get a silver Family ticket for $40. No excuse not to go.

and thigh wise. his good run ended in front of our seats, and his legs are just enourmous

I did it myself. I'm not made of witchdoctors you know

yeah, but it provides a good opportunity to go for a beer/slash. he's predictable in a good way sometimes
