WHAT THEY SAID

Wagga Wagga Magpie on the Green and Gold website: “Watching Berrick Barnes is like watching soft porn – you know there are good bits in there somewhere but be f---d if he’ll let you see them.” Unkind, but clever.

from: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/live-score-munster-vs-australia/

and quoted in the podcast

I suppose you have to respect him for that...

 

[cyclopath]

Jeez, wish I'd said that!

 

[Hugh Jarse]

For previous discussion on the merits, or otherwise, of Fitzsimmons follow this link to the thread "Vale Sydney Morning Herald Rugby"

http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/forum/threads/6064-Vale-Sydney-Morning-Herald-Rugby/page2

Question is does Fitzy subscribe to G&GR or was Wagga Wagga Magpie "dobbed in" to Fitzy by one of our number?

If the former, what nom-de-plume do you reckon he posts under?

It has been claimed elsewhere that no one has seen "Fat Prop". Hmmmmmm.

 

[RugbyReg]

Jeez, wish I'd said that!

you will Clyclo, you will.

 

[RugbyReg]

clearly we are now Rugby's most quoted podcast!

 

[Lindommer]

G&GR and the sporting capital of the western world, Wagga Wagga, at the same time: I'm in seventh heaven!

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Jeez, wish I'd said that!

you will Clyclo, you will.

Reg, you're like a big jam doughnut with cream on the top.

 

[Reddy!]

Everyone into rugby is starting to come across this website, young and old I find. I was at work a few weeks back on my lunch break browsing G&GR, and a old courier bloke came in to deliver something for my office, looked at my screen and goes "Ahh Green and Gold Rugby mate, good one!". My identity came this close to being exposed for what it is.

Are you the mole for Fitzy??:-X

I assume you mean like a doughnut my arrival gives you pleasure and my departure merely makes you hungry for more

I'm Spartacus !

Precisely. Next thing someone is probably likely to claim reference to a stream of bat's piss.

 

[Blue]

So finally Fitzimmons says something backed up by fact. Whaddayaknow.

 

[Lee Grant]

"Sydney Morning Herald sport department. Judged best overall coverage of sport (print media) by the Australian Sports Commission."

Seemingly based on a belief they will continue to use GAGR as their source for informed rugby commentary rather than rely on Grumbles (aka ARU Press Liaison Officer)
