Dear Sir, I don't have a mobile phone, what should I do to participate? Kind regards, Scarf

Mark Arbib. Wow! The perfect appointment to eradicate the NSW-style politics from rugby. Not!

Bad guess Athilnaur, but you get three so keep going. My guess is that he actually says stuff like "points of difference" to his players, which is why they don't seem to know what they're doing.

Nuci is positioning himself nicely. I suspect the next review he conducts will show the urgent need for him as head coach.

Scotty, the table moves fast. You can gain +1.5 in a week.

There's an assumption here that because the Brumbies are on lower points than other Kiwi/Saffer teams, they must be worse. But since the conference system, you can't say that, because they play different teams. Small print: but yeah, they are worse.

My last ever rugby game was for Blackheath vs Blayney. We used to have Cudal, Cumnock (those Cumnock c**ts, as we used to say), Tullamore, Molong, and so on. Blackheath doesn't exist any more. I'm out at CSU Bathurst most weekdays but not on Saturdays. Pity, would love to have a local team to...

Westy the Black Swan. FFS, that is shithouse. He looks like the old Spy vs Spy cartoon in Mad magazine. The worst thing is that it makes Captain Hurricane only the 2nd worst mascot, when he should be worst mascot in any selection anywhere in the world. My kids like Tah Man, so I like him too.

This is almost a new thread but I'll post it here. Title of rant: Berrick Barnes, what the fuck? What's the deal with Berrick Barnes? He is a kicking flyhalf who is terrible at kicking. I reckon he found grass on about 1 out of 12 attempts - the rest sailing into the arms of receivers. The...

10 days to go ... this thing's deader than disco. That's the problem with traditions. It takes ages to get one going and just a day to stuff them up. Weak effort Gagrtahs.

Well, at this stage there's no game to ref. As far as I can tell, it's just me.

An hour or two before the game, in the Tahs' little training paddock in Moore Park.

Well bumped Stu. Here it is: Rebel Army @ Sydney (Sat 21 April) Just put your name down, and it will happen.

It's Rule 11. Any thread involving Tom Carter must serve a mandatory 10 pages.

Did anyone notice Bruce calling Growden "Scoop"? Love it.

According to Payton's article, the ARU have hired Totality first, then secondly are trying to figure out what they want him to do. Odd process.

Thin edge of the wedge, I think. What's next, players doing the monkey cloud?

Paddy going? Out-fucking-standing. His mate Bryce? Even better. Some of those selections seem weird, though. Have we got rid of Caligula just to get Claudius?

There's wrong, very wrong, and the Cipridance. I feel violated just looking at it. Is he betraying something important about rugby or am I being oversensitive?

Well, for what it's worth I think that sentence is fair. Very clear tip tackle + history. Everyone here is arguing that other tip tackles were just as bad or worse, so I agree that the judiciary is inconsistent. But I think this was a dangerous tackle and deserves a ban of about that length.
