That's an amazingly good question Blue. Probably not, but the iRB has run the ELVs as an adhocracy, so you never know.

That's pretty much all I ever say to him. G'day, how're the Reds travelling?

Don't forget, people, that in RSA 6 = openside and 7 = blindside.

While we're talking along these lines, can someone help me out with an argument I'm having with my (QLDer) father. Scarf Snr says: Scarf says: Scarf Snr says: The old bloke loves Hynes, Barnes, Horwill and Moore. Hates Waugh and Dunning. Starting to see a pattern? But help me win this...

Yeah, plus Melbourne have a pretty decent club competition. But I was suggesting that the Melbourne people are probably still pissed off about the Force. It sounds like it will be created from above, rather from below, which would worry me.

It would be stupid for the ARU to create a Melbourne team out of thin air. You would want to see a Melbourne-based consortium trying to drive the process. Maybe Central Coast is a better option - always seems to be a few blokes there trying to get sporting teams.

When is the Plank free to walk (geddit)? One or two more seasons with the Tahs would be tops.

SNK can play very good fullback. And you can quote me on this: I think Cooper has zero chance of ever playing test-quality 10. I'm officially wavering in my support for Deans.

OK naz, you know the rules. If you are going to be a "passionate supporter" you have to provide some realistic options, not bay at the moon.

The rules played in the ARC were fantastic. The refs got onto it: yellows, get back 10, don't throw ball away, etc. Yes, the local amateur refs coped better than the iRB stooges. And while we're at it, I reckon the ARC was the best rugby comp I've ever seen.

Can we keep this thread going all summer?

I'd take $20. But then, I'm an academic not a lawyer, so that would be a pay increase.

You raise an interesting philosophical point, G-man. If we believe, for example, that - "Players shouldn't worry about the ref, just play the game" - is there a similar requirement on ourselves? Should we expect the same of ourselves that we expect of the players. It's the same with -...

I reckon Kaplan knew he'd incorrectly penalised McCaw once (when he was the only Kiwi there and correctly decided that the ball was out); so he made up for it after that. I think, though, that there might be something in the idea that Kaplan doesn't like Australian teams. But we need to see his...

You blokes going to keep us updated? Shall I re-sticky this thread?

You making a late charge for a Scarf award, V? Most Cocky Winner?

:o Gee Blue, is there a double standard here? The CC is not exactly tiddlywinks either.

Virtual AGM Summary Rules of the Scarf: see stickied (and locked) thread above. Everyone seems pretty content with the current set-up. Perhaps a Kitchen Dutch dictionary will appear. Suggestion Box: NewsWire is useful, but most posters would like to see articles written by members. No worries...
