    All these Aus local derbies ...................... better?

    Lindo, Fatprop, Barabarian, no need to try and "convert" me. For now I think it sucks until I can be proven wrong. All the money arguments etc etc are completely valid and even more obvious. You all make fantastically well presented arguments, each correct in their own right. Given that...

    All these Aus local derbies ...................... better?

    Maybe you don't think so but most people outside Australia consider and extra Brumbies / Force bore-a-thon to be totally meaningless. And I had the misfortune of attending Reds Waratahs matches in the lats three years. I have already decided which blunt object I will use to poke myself in...

    All these Aus local derbies ...................... better?

    40 of the 40 (whatever) million don't give a toss about rugby buit at least thre is no NRL or AFL to worry about. Lee: Exactly. Money. SARU had to compromise to get the money. It is as simple as that. Where would a veto have left them? It was never an option. Gnostic: You make valid points...

    All these Aus local derbies ...................... better?

    The Currie Cup teams and Super Teams are commercially different entities. In some cases they have different contract structures. The CC is a competition with over 100 years history. Watering it down is not the answer. The Currie Cup involves other teams that donlt play Super Rugby. What...

    All these Aus local derbies ...................... better?

    Too late. Here it is: I think they are calling it the "Tournament within a tournament token white elephant fluffy toy cup to make everyone feel that the whole thing is worthwhile" although I must say it sounds a bit long to me.

    Knuckles must like biltong a lot becuase I can tell you that Kimberley is not a great place to spend any time.

    6 Nations 2011

    Backing England all he way. They have steadily improved and have more upside in them than any of the other teams. France will be up and down, Ireland don't have much improvement in them and Wales will be average with the usual added pre-match bravado. With England I can see a plan that...

    Strengths and weaknesses of Super teams

    The most useless international no 3. Aftert all his injuries he can barely run. I just watched the 2010 Magners final. He jogs from scrum to scrum. Go watch the EOYT games where he came on. He is a liability. Will not suit S15 rugby. Simply too slow to make any impact. A prop needs to hit rucks...

    Physically Imposing XV

    As a Bulls man, I agreed 100% with you until November 2010. He stood up physically in the Ireland and English tests like I have never seen him do before. He is no mongrel 8 like Palu. But he is adding a tighter dimension to his play and it's becoming more and more convincing and he is becoming a...

    Physically Imposing XV

    Serious question. Do you really think so? I remember him slipping and falling over in a test match in Aus at some stage and it seems he has been labelled a poor defensive player since over here in Oz. His defensive record for the boks at 12 and 15 has been nothing but excellent and when he...

    World Test XV 2010 - Team Announced

    Can't beast Smith for consistency. For all the good things he does, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) still turns out some avergae performance. Sharpe and Moore ahead of Vic and Bismarck? Come on boys. Homeboy selections rule OK?

    Brendan Venter post match inverview

    Lee: I can underatsand the game RM try to play but they must be the most frustrating side to watch for a neutral. If there was EVER a team that plays to recipe, it's them. They don't care through, as long as the forwards dominate. If teams like Toulouse match them in the fatties they are...
