A little oversight with normally no real consequences or media interest if you are Joe the Plumber.

For the most recent graduate into Club Muppet, in the middle of the Lions series.... Not clever. This is a distraction that is not needed and is taking some of the focus off the awesome aspects of our great International game.

None of the other codes can come close.

Soccer will have one off great matches in Aus which will draw the crowds (mostly local) and have a great atmosphere, but they never have a sustained series with large numbers of fanatical international visitors in the caravan.

Mungoball. State of Origin is about as good as it gets.
Contact Netball. Not played anywhere else. Enough rabidly fanatical Southern and Western Staters as it is thank you very much.

I've found a picture of Digby with his lawyer in Court yesterday trying to straighten this mess out

As when The Pulveriser termed KB (Kurtley Beale) a 'national treasure', I find his odd reference to a formal assault charge leading to an arrest warrant regarding one his highest profile players 'just a storm in a teacup' rather disappointing, and certainly not the best judgement as the code's leader in Australia.

As a long term atheist and as much as I like Rathbone (what he does for the image of those struggling with mental illness is awesome), I think it's a shit effort to call somebody out on their faith in such a public way.

Play the man or the event not his belief system.



I reckon if he'd said the first sentence only it would have been OK. The second was a little uncharitable, I agree. I'm an atheist also, but I'm also not in the business of lampooning someone's religious beliefs if they aren't hurting anyone.

That is pretty much what he said in the first sentence Zander! what he actually said was that it was bad form to publicly criticize someone's faith.

Exactly, this isn't the stone ages, it's not criticising someone's faith anymore.

Nah, if the "man" says something as utterly stupid as that, he deserves to be called out
