At least we don't boo. Then we wouldn't be able to hear if someone dropped a pin.

What a ridiculous thread. I remember being at the SCG watching cricket games where the crowds booed and booed every time Pat Symcox bowled or fielded the ball. I remember having a whole cup of beer tipped over me when I was 15 at the SFS when I was wearing an All Black jersey. I've been to a State of Origin match in Brisbane and heard the boos and taunts and jeers.

You fellas are no better or worse than us.

What a ridiculous thread.

Funny you should post this EVERY, because I sitting here with a headache from sister in NZ ripping into me. Let me tell you how it went.
Me: I got to admit sis, I bit pissed off with the Quade booing shit, don't know if it making us look very good.
Sis: What the fuck are you talking about, (she was at semi on sunday) and when QC (Quade Cooper) kicked off on the full this whole row behind me started booing and jeering him, I turned around to tell them to behave, and it was a group of about 12-15 Wallaby suppoerters, when I asked what was going on they said he's a red wanker, he's useless, and Barnes should be 10. They were into him whole game, so you can tell all your Aussioe mates before they get up themselves check their fucken facts!! They were booing him more than anyone else in our section of crowd.
Me: hey calm down, I was just saying
Sis: I know ad I hate booing but if anyone tries to tell you it was only us at Eden Park, tell them they are liars.
Me: hey you do get dickheads from everywhere
Sis: yep but are any of your mates going crook about the Aussies that are doing it?
So I asked how her kids are and her Son inlaw(who is and Aussie) and she calmed down. So I decided she was there, and I do know her, know she wouldn't be bullshitting me, so have to take her word thast some of you lot are liars.. Lol and I won't even tell you what she said about going to Wallabies/Russian game with her best mates (who are also Aussies)

Somehow this kind of says it all: i remember a bloke getting into a bit of push and shove after a game because someone from the other side called our hooker "a c**t"". Our 2nd rower stepped in and said "He may be a c**t, but he's our c**t".

Hell Cycs it was probably only VB:lmao:
The piss they serve at the SFS nowadays, throwing it around is probably the best thing you can do with it, although not a cheap pastime.
Maybe I should just drink red Powerade like Lee Grant. ;)

"enjoy a Tui" isn't that an oxymoron?? =P

In other news I just can't see Australia as being hated, everyone of the team were gracious in both victory and defeat, also anyone complaining about Pocock is just ignorant of the nature of the game and either doesn't have a competent 7 in their team or doesn't watch them closely.

Ritchie laughing as Potty mouth Henry pays out on Quade at the press conference was a disgrace. I have no time for the cheat any more.

Graham Henry:

"I think Quade has brought a wee bit of that on himself. He's got a wee bit of mileage to make up and he probably made up a bit tonight. I think you have to earn that respect. He's lost a bit of respect with some of his actions in the previous Test matches. That's natural. But he tried very hard tonight, he kept his nose clean which was nice, and he's gained some respect. You have to earn respect; you can't just expect respect."


Not quite sure which part of that was potty mouthed or paying out (whatever that means). Seems an entirely reasonable thing to say.

They toured for the last time here in 1971.
I thought they toured NZ at about the same time - Wikipedia says they toured NZ in 1981
I went to the SCG and I couldn't work out why all these hippies had it in for the bokke....I was young!
I also recall that when they won in 1995 some blazer claimed that if they played in 87 and 91 they' have won the too.....surely we can't be as bad as that???


The "Blazer" was Luis Lyut - President of SA Rugby. He probably represented the worst of sterotypical South African personalities, and was more a caricature of that stero type rather than a real person. The comment was made at the formal dinner after the final, which SA won (yes, we all know that). The All Blacks walked out.

Potty mouthed by nature - listen to his coaching of the Lions. And reasonable - rubbish. Only reasonable if you take this McCaw respect thing to ridiculous levels. And McCaw's sniggering- pathetic.

Don't be chippy. It's not worth it.

You know what mate, i went to the Bledisloe in Brisbane where we beat the soon to be world champs, which i would swap for the final against the french any day.

I had a very similar situation of a half a dozen boys the same age. I just told them to shut the hell up, keep it positive and behave. I have witnessed this as well.

I think it's a generational thing. I never did that sort of thing as a kid.

I hate the booing, but you really do cop shit as an away-fan anywhere. I've spent years going to Bledisloes in Sydney, and let me tell that is one looooooonely train ride home.

Being a wallaby supporter is about more than buying a jersey and acting like a dick in public. Backstabbing pricks.
