Re: awesome article by adam frier: The beauty of our game is in the contest There you go. It took a player to write a decent bloody rugby article in this country. I wonder if the rugby journos read it? You know, the fat guy who talks crap and gets paid for it and all his mates (yah that one)...

Quite right. One is delusional ane one out of his mind. I ain't saying which is which. Forum rules and all that. :fishing PS the article is harmless.

Was that a full strenght Fiji side? Surely not?

Carter at 13? Come on guys, I know Horne is injured but seriously? At least now the wings will see some ball. Kurtley better get that cutout pass greased up. If Carter put the same amount of energy into playing rugby as he does into chirping, pushing people after the whistle and generally...

Queensland may yet see a winning team some time soon O0

Is it just me or Barnes looks way too excited about the whole thing? :fishing

Luke Burgess. Five years. Crushed budgies.

Re: WHAT THE FUCK Season ticket for sale. One dollar. Oh that's me paying you to take the thing.

Yeah he had a terrible time especially early on when they disovered the cancer. The hardest of hard bastards and he was a pleasure to watch. Never backed down an inch. A great family man. Rest in peace.

Yeah I heard that Rolland comment and had to rewind to listen again. Crazy. Rolland in my opinion has gone backwards over the last couple of years. Too bad, I really liked him. There would be some people who'd say that Kaplan must be the only ref who refs the Tahs correctly but I'm not going to...

Sounds like the typical clueless Sharks performance we were treated to in the second half of last season. Like I said elsewhere, I predict a looong season for Guppie fans. Plumtree is going to get fired one season too late. Also server to confirm that the Force will be tough to beat if they...

So there's Blue in the Coles in the Manuka village. As I look to my right, one Stephen Moore is standing looking at some cans with a slightly confused look on his face (tough thing this shopping business for a front rower but a man must eat). So I run through the options in my head: a) How's...

Best tackler in the world? How do you even measure that? Average number of hits a game? Effectiveness? Missed hit %? It's an impossible thing to measure. Completely subjective. Those blokes are both good though. Have seen them in numerous games this season and Dusatoir is a fantastic all round...

Ah. Thanks Lee. My bad. Shouln't speed read. That puts a different perspective on things. They could hit the road with two wins and a bit of confidence. Chiefs normally start slow. Couple of wins in the road and two or three bonus points could keep them in it I guess. I remain a sceptic...

Dear oh dear I only saw that draw now. These are the Sharkies opening games: Crusaders, Waratahs, Brumbies, Highlanders and Hurricanes in that order Oi. Talk about a bitch of a start. They could be gooonnnneee before they even play a home game.... I think they are no chance to make a semi.

So Lee you are in effect suggesting that if Brumbie Ball is one one end of the sectrum and SA Ball circa 2009 is on the other, this interretation will only slightly move us back on that spectrum but on the balance the hot potato attitude will prevail? I guess time will tell but I hope we aren't...

Riiiiiggghhht. So let's see. The Americans think it's a good idea to make a movie about Mandela and you call is self absorbed? Just who is it that is self absorbed? Mandela? If you knew the smallest, tiniest, most miniscule bit about Mandela you would realise that nothing can be further from the...

You're always on about how great player development is in the Cape yet you import more players than any other Union and now you stole the two best South African backs. Sies man. On top of that you try and copy the beatiful blue. Disgraceful mountain goats. :fishing Oh and do you want to take...

Right in front of the ref if reports are to be believed. Niggle or no niggle, that is about as dumb as you can get. But we are talking about the guy who complained that he wasn't getting paid as much as those flashy backs and who warms up by humping the posts so I guess that's face value.

Cheers that prompted me to listen to that podcast. Well if the change in interpretation allows the phase play that made the Brumbies so effective in their golden years we should all get very worried. They have the backs to take advantage of quick ball and strike runners who can set it up. I...
