[In regards to the purpose of sevens] Excuse my broken record but....15's is played everywhere but the pathway is crap if you're from outside the major state capitals (at least the ones that have a Super Rugby team). As a result promoting alternative pathways like sevens has to be tried for the...

Not going on official numbers here but just memory the Adelaide crowd seemed bigger than what I've seen during the coverage on the GC thus far. Sending it back to Adelaide with a big chocolate apology cake may be on the cards for the ARU.

I just saw it for the first time now. I suddenly have a hankering for that Lime Solo.

There is a lot of the school abbreviations that I dont understand. Co-ed regional catholic school I'm guessing is "Other Private School".

The punches are bad but riding along side her for a 1km stretch yelling all kinds of disturbing verbals toward her, especially the comments of a sexual nature, sounds more disturbing to me, thats quite a prolonged period of abuse. Unless someone knows otherwise I believe she was alone, she must...

Is that Amlin cup the English comp (with London Irish in it) or am I getting that confused with something else? Cause if it is then I'm considering forking out the extra $10/mth.

Personally, I'd love to see Irish break their losing streak against NZ.

Rugger we just had our club AGM and the Laffan cup was brought up. I must say my opinion on it has changed a bit now that more facts have been presented. I'll have to get more info but basically the Uni's involved (most anyway) have aligned themselves with the Aussie super rugby franchises. I'm...

The Herald here in Newcastle indicates that Tinkler has no involvement in the Wallabies v Scotland match. http://www.theherald.com.au/news/local/sport/rugby-union/wallabies-will-play-scotland-in-newcastlle/2346378.aspx Newcastle gets branded a league town so many times I think its had an...

Thats what I'm hoping Rugger that this will allow him to get noticed. He is studying at Newcastle & didnt want to leave till he was done so that was a huge part in him not going to another NRL club, even if a super rugby team was interested he probably wouldnt have gone due to him prioritising...

Wade Signs With Newcastle Knights for 1 year http://www.theherald.com.au/news/local/news/general/mark-wade-signs-oneyear-deal-with-knights/2344897.aspx Confirmation Wade is gone from Rugby to mungo ball but hopefully not forever. Good luck to him.

Solid effort Swat! For me I got: 16 in Green and Gold Rugby 137 in Australia 161 in New South Wales 934 Overall Given how much of a shit fight the pool rounds were for me I consider this a pretty good result.

Funny you should mention that I was talking about the french response with a mate today & we both agreed anyone of celtic ancestry regardless of the team they are playing for should be able to do the 'celtic challenge' as a response. Doubt the IRB would let it go ahead though.

There is more to a players measure than just whether they are in a winning team. It can be about bouncing back from a loss. I have no idea how Dusautoir was able to rally his team or himself to go out & beat England (as poor as England was) after such a humiliating loss to Tonga (all credit to...

Tom Donnelly for one of the lock positions provided he gets back to full fitness & plays like he did when he was in the ABs. I'm biased though - always liked him. Now that he'll be wearing black & red next super rugby season expect the bias to triple. Depends very much on whether he can...

He's just one player though so maybe he's an outlier. I'd still like to see some more go up there, cant be too bad a gamble given we arent really doing too well in the forward department as it is in our current situation.

Although gutted for the French given their efforts. The AB I'm happy for the most is Stephen Donald, he has copped shit loads of abuse all for just one kick that he didnt put out. He's had entire facebook group pages dedicated to hating him. I couldnt be more happier to see him be in the winning...

I find the Haka exciting but when the French responded the way that they did it gave me goosebumps, gave me a real "its gonna be on" feeling. The IRB should get stuffed with their piss ant fines. The haka in combination with an advancing team getting up close and personal is exciting & we need...

Looking at the forward packs this RWC we need to send our up & coming piggys to France to develop rather than stay here.

I love how mungo journo Paul Kent gets on his high horse & says Quade would never make it in League cause he cant tackle & makes a huge deal about league & tackling then you see SBW's 'effort', Kent should have a look at one of leagues former 'stars' performance before he starts throwing shit...
