That you were keen enough to watch it?

Hope for the best.

Holloway really surprised me. He is starting to play like he means it.

The grassroots in action. Take note: it is not just about money, and it is certainly not just about RA.

The simple truth is that there are never simple answers to complex problems. We are where we are as a code because of 100 years of decisions, indecision, prejudice, stupidity, bad luck, the rise of indigenous codes specifically designed and run for local tastes, and so on and bloody on. I have...

What does his contract say? Do you know?

They tried hard enough, but made some terrible mistakes at crucial times. I did not see the whole game, by the way. If Foley had not choked, or whatever he does too often, we would all be saying what a gutsy win that was. They were gutsy, for mine they look like a hungry side. Maybe too...

He was terrific, from what I saw (just the last 30 or so). I thought Khunt was pretty good too.

Mate they (or their surrogates) pay more money to young fellas who are still at school.

I did not watch the whole game, but from what I saw I would have Rona at 13 ahead of him for the Tahs. As for the Wobbs, surely Kuridrani.

The brave thing for her to do was accept the job. I doubt that there were too many other candidates.

Are you a volunteer worker for the game? The point I was trying to make (why do I bother, I ask myself) is that we have always had, and still do, a lot of volunteers who work for the love of the game. That is what the amateur spirit means. Is that clearer for you?

So what would you do? Sack Chubby? What then?

Everything is relative, I suppose. I have seen some wonderful games there. I have even seen us beat the Darkness.

Err, yes, I know. I was trying to answer Fatty's question: "what has she done that is so bad?"

It's probably what she hasn't done. She has not sacked the board and all the staff.

Well, it is a fact of life. And if you take the dictionary meaning, not the popular one, the amateur spirit does have the virtue of being about the love of a pastime; doing something because you like it, not just because you get a buck out of it.

These young leaguies who attend private schools are doing so thanks to scholarships from NRL clubs. I would bet that the vast majority of them would never, ever have been attracted to play our game, simply because of the much greater money, opportunities, and attention from the rival code, from...

Spoiled my brekky.

I for one am delighted that KB (Kurtley Beale) will not have to go head to head with Laumape.
