    Rougeries's eye gouge

    Whether McCaw has decided to "let it go" (read "get him back next time") is irrelevant. My boys watch this game. Young kids model themselves on actions. Say what you like to them, spout all the high minded ideals you can wrap your lips around, but know this - its what they see getting DONE...

    "Just for a second put aside "that can't or won't happen because [insert]" thoughts" I suppose it took a second to type Sounds Great" :-)

    School sporting scholarships/recruitment

    A Brave New World Light - your story about the Samoan boy was properly touching and I agree that even self-serving actions can nontheless create collateral benefits for deserving people. I'm a TSS old boy. There was very little in the way of importing talent on scholarships back then (late...

    Terrace cries "we won't play against big boys anymore"

    I have to take issue with a couple of these statements. The education experience is not in the hands of the School? It's all the kids? I mean, really, are you serious? The School - as well as the Parents - have a HUGE impact on educational outcomes for our kids and to try to assert otherwise is...

    Terrace cries "we won't play against big boys anymore"

    This may be dredging up an old thread. If thats a no no, I apologise. I am a bit of a club rugby noob and about to have boys go into the Brisbane GPS competition. That GPS Rugby now has momentum and an entrenched position as the bastion of junior rugby development in Qld does not make that...

    RWC FINAL - New Zealand vs France

    The Darkness have never looked so beatable in Victory. The monkey may be off their back, but his banana scented drool will taint their collars yet. WTF is with the French at WC's? I had a Citroen once and it was like this. Stylish, beautiful from the right angles, quirky, high maintenance, but...

    Australia: now the worlds most hated team, and whinging saffas.

    Booing is juvenile poor sportsmanship at it's worst. I took a bunch of the Juniors team I coach to see a Reds game at Lang Park (I will never call it Suncorp Stadium) and a couple of the kids started booing some stupid thing. I told them if i heard it again I'd pull them out and send them home...

    Only if we win.

    3rd Place Play Off - Wallabies v Wales.

    They better come out to play against Wales, because those blokes have a massive point to prove.

    On Reds Cards ................................

    Intent is impossible to prove in real time. It requires detailed examination and even then - in terms of things like dangerous play, it's subjective. What's more, why should a careless dangerous tackle be treated less harshly than an intentional dangerous tackle? Both can put someone in...

    RWC 2011 SF2: Australia vs. New Zealand

    Is it just me? We lack attacking flair and the forwards to deliver the ball. We have some of them but not the stars, not really. Beale was missed badly. We keep mistaking really good with brain-snappingly good. We're one dimensional. If you take out one back with a hammy and one forward on form...

    RWC 2011 SF2: Australia vs. New Zealand

    I have to put this out there. Deans as Coach has to shoulder some responsibility. His tactics and selections have made and re-made the Wallabies over the last 4 years. Frankly, as much as we as a nation and as Rugby lovers and as basically loyal and faithful followers have been prepared to...

    That was unnecessary. But the punters these days have no respect or class.

    At least the ref can't be bagged. Well done New Zealand. Bastards...

    RWC 2011 SF2: Australia vs. New Zealand

    I'm calling it. They cam hold us off for 11 points for half an hour. And it's not like they're done scoring. I hope we can play like WALES,
