    Brumbies v Rebels, Round 10 @ GIO stadium

    As a girl I feel obliged to say Dior will tear it up in this one, but my gut says Daniels will win hands down, causing a lot of headaches the morning after. Not great news about White being out, but a good opportunity for both Dowsett and Powell, especially with no set first no. 9 yet for next...

    The League Media

    Judging by some of the things I have seen on the sporting field and in other arenas, many already do think that. The behaviour they see from these so called "professionals" just reinforces that its ok. Can you imagine league players calling the ref 'sir'? Or the captain politely asking which...

    The League Media

    This is such a ridiculous thing for them to say. How many times do we see players chasing a high kick, making accidental contact with the player while in the air and not only getting penalised but lately in NZ games binned for it. It was careless and dangerous. I also am astounded at the...

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    I agree with you on this point. Funnily enough, she was one of the ones supporting and defending someone who was found guilty of an offence (while not a crime, something I believe could have been said to have "brought the game into disrepute") and yet is very quick to make statements such as...

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    I know there is a lot of arguments about whether sports stars are heroes or should be treated differently etc, but TBH I think Hoiles summed all of that up very well.

    Rebels v Waratahs 2015 Super Rugby Rd 2

    But if that happened while under advantage then the ball would just be brought back to the Tahs so they could take the penalty kick for touch. I agree with you that in general play it makes a difference, but not when there is a penalty advantage where if it stuffs up they have the security of...

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    No, but providing housing for partners of drug users has given me ample exposure to other types of ill effects.

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    Maybe its just me, but I do have a problem with someone who pleads guilty to supplying cocaine continuing to have a contract with any Australian rugby team, no matter what the punishment is, fine, jail time or warning. If he pleads guilty it means he did it, and to me that says he shouldn't...

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    Ok, I get all this innocent till proven guilty stuff, so will reserve actual judgement until a later date. But having said that, I agree that I doubt such a high profile person would have been arrested had there not been some pretty good reason. The big issue I have (if he is guilty, feel...

    Waratahs v Force, round 1, Sunday 15 February

    I'm confused, did it miss and they put it up on the scoreboard? Or did it miss and they not put it up on the score board? The score was 20-15 before the try, the score at the restart was 25-15. So when did they allegedly put the points for the conversion up? Or was it the drop conversion that...

    S15 Rd 1 - Brumbies v Reds, Friday 13th February

    Firstly its a shame I had to scroll through so many comments about the Tahs forward pack (surley there is another forum somewhere that their praises can be sung considering not one of them played in the Brumbies vs Reds match). While I am thrilled with the Brumbies win and thought they played...

    Ireland v Australia

    I know. But as I said, I am tired and cranky, and he made a pretty sweeping generalisation that really irked me in this state.

    Ireland v Australia

    Ok ... seriously? I am a mother of a small child (think nappies, cot and bottle). She sleeps for about 4 or 5 hours at a time, especially when she is teething as she is now. I have not had a full nights sleep in 18 months. I sleep when I can during the night, as I said usually in 4 or 5 hour...

    Australian Rugby's greatest day of shame....

    Ok, I have a question (well I have a lot, most of them using pretty offensive language and posting them here would not be productive). The ARU found Beale guilty of breaching team protocols. The tribunal found him guilty of breaching the Code of Conduct. So my question is what is there left...

    Australian Rugby's greatest day of shame....

    Hate to say it, but this is the way I see it happening. So Beale hasn't been included (yet) for the Spring tour. But imagine next year at WC time when the squad is announced and he is there in place of (insert players name here). It will all kick up again, even if it has died down a bit. The...

    Kurtley Beale

    I hope to God you are being sarcastic. Because if you think that is the only issue here then tha says smething pretty special about you, and not in a good way.

    Kurtley Beale

    This is what I want to know. Was is actually proven that there was a second text? I know that is cause for debate amongst some people. Pulver said he had seen teh textx at the press conference when this initially broke, so what did he see? If indeed there is a second, more offensive (I...

    Kurtley Beale

    If your name is Di and it is directed to you then hell yes it is absolutely offensive. If someone put my name on a pic like that and sent it out to his mates (and me by mistake) I would be completely mortified, humiliated, offended, disgusted etc. Men may not think that way if it was about...

    Kurtley Beale

    Ok, thanks. I don't know figures, just what I have heard in the media (always so reliable!). Do those that represent SA then get a match fee per game that play for the Boks?
