Rebels 2012

[Athilnaur]

Can't wait for the game, atmosphere at AAMI will rock.

Nonu vs JOC (James O'Connor) will be a telling match up. I do wish Kingi was playing, and a Mortlock in the last 20 would be a sight, but it's a good side and if Phipps shows urgency and judgement he'll do well, mark my words.

No excuses Rebs, time to step up. Won't be easy against a class side that's been stung but has to be done.

As for the dougie, bring it on Cips; may there be many weepings and lamentations by non Rebs fans. Many.

Any ideas what the support split will be like, given the amount of Kiwis in Melb (I'm sure the Army will be at their vocal best)?

It's mostly Cantabrians & Wellingtonians here. All the Aucklanders are in Sydney & Brisbane.

All of them? Must be a pretty quiet place on a Friday and Saturday night. And Sunday through Thursday....

Rebels have issued ~20000 tickets for this match, mostly due to the bring a few mates promo for the foundation members, I'd think.

Still, should be pumping.

Will be interesting to see if the Rebs wear the EnergyWatch logo on their jersey, given today's events.

I'm going to be dumb. Huh????

Google search a couple of Melbourne Demons articles.

Also, the Rebels have something on their website about it already. http://www.melbournerebels.com.au/News/ArticleDetails/tabid/270/ArticleID/6040/Default.aspx

Their CEO has had some quotes found on his Facebook page that I'm not going to reproduce. And by some, I mean a lot.

 

[suckerforred]

Oh dear me. Silly boy.

 

[daz]

Oh dear me. Silly boy.

That's exactly what his mum said......

 

[suckerforred]

I am guessing his impulse control is still not what it should be.

If you look at what he has posted, sfr, "turd" might be a more succinct way of describing him.

I post it here cause it is the last place where he played!
Afusipa Taumoepeau juste arrived in France to play for Pau in second division. I believe he has a injury replacement contrat.
Pau is a challenger to win the promotion in Top 14 next year.

I am polite sometimes Bruce.

Oh Grumbles... how subtle...

Two high-profile players are now known as ''Batman and Robin'' at their Australian province after being sighted at a seedy nightclub. The Batmobile had to negotiate several poles and tram tracks during the getaway.

Geez... I wonder which province he was referring to...?

 

[tranquility]

And I assume the nightclub in question is Revolver?

Wait wait, I keep getting told Sydney has trams

Could be...umm...Adelaide...

 

[Lindommer]

Trams? Melbourne? Sydney? Nah, Batman and Robin're in Bendigo.

Must have been hitting the nightclubs at chinatown and paddy's markets.
