Numbertwo, some members probably do prefer to read posts which compliment their own, whilst others just like to 'have a blue', however, those of us who don't have egos which need "massaging" will continue to contribute our views on subjects we feel we know something about, or which will add to...

Zero!

Plenty of positive vibes in our house. I have to agree that ARU on-coast promotion has been virtually non-existent, being left to local journos (mainly print and television) to source their own stories! I'm not "blaming the (ARU) messenger", because there doesn't appear to be one! It's hard to...

"Be my guest"!!

Wamberal, I think there are around 72,000 in SEQ, with another 100 making the trip across the dutch each week! Don't know what their birth-rate is in NZ, but they may end up having to "import" All Blacks players from Queensland!

Ditto. If we can't at least treble the crowd we got for Aust. Baabaas v Canada (8,000 plus), I will be surprised. Seating capacity is 27,400 plus 190 wheelchair positions.

Always a few spare beds (1 double + 1 single), at our place, Scoey!

Braveheart81, I was driving home from work this afternoon when I suddenly realised what you actually meant in this post! The sponge-rubber pads in our shorts that I was reffering to, were thigh-pads to comphensate for the hard, dry fields we often played on, not incontinence pads. Sorry for any...

Friends of ours have just realised it's on!! They've booked and going with 53 friends including junior-rugby players in their families! IMO it will be a good crowd, perfect night, and a "competitive" match. Game on!

Fortunately, "nil" there too BH81!

Further to weather comments above, be advised that Mr Doug's Gold Coast-based rain gauge has recorded "nil" precipitation since 19th July, so by Saturday that will be 58 consecutive rain-free days! Let's hope that the Skilled Park Irrigation is working better than some of the systems in the Gold...

Forecast is "mostly sunny", 11c min/22c max, with ESE winds @ 24km/hr (at 3pm), pressumably easing at night! BTW, Will Genia's knee op. was described today as being "successful".

Mrs Doug and I have enjoyed watching the highlights of the Wheelchair Rugby, (as we have with all the Paralympic sports). Ryley Batt is amazing, given that he's been clocked at over 30kph, and when you look at his hands with only 4 or 5 fingers in total, you wonder how he does it! Bond is a...

Thanks Iluvmyfooty, it's logical, as there was of course no opportunity to recognise their ultimate sacrifice last weekend.

This may have already been mentioned, but were our black arm-bands for the passing of John Gillard?

Ditto from me too!

Sorry coach, I wont let it happen again, and I promise to 'play smarter' next week!

My fault, p.Tah, 'cause I only donned the LRJs (Lucky Red Jocks) after showering at half-time! I thought I needed an alternative to one of my Wobs jerseys, so I'm wearing a Reds T-shirt, which worked a treat!! Off to the Argi match next Saturday to see the "new' Wallabies line-up. With all the...

We missed you too AS. I thought you must have defected to the NRL!

I'm off for a shower now, but will look forward to reading your posts shortly! Appreciate the input (or is it imput?) team.
