Waratahs 2014

If I want to go I can buy better tickets on the net!

And it's attitude like yours that maybe affecting the Waratahs attendances, this bloke paid for members tickets for 8 years and finally got fed up with it.

For how many years do you need to put up with bullshit service to have a great attitude?

is it better to turn your back on the team and not support them because the admin is crap? Do you not support the team when their goalkicker misses? or when the lineout is rubbish?

I'm up for beers.

The 5:30 game is Chiefs vs Lions so I've got no great desire to be at a pub with a TV to watch that. Taphouse would be fine with me.

I only put the tahs logo back on my posts in the last off season as an attempt to gird myself into supporting them.
Fairly obviously it aint working and Friday/Saturday nights risk early sat morning booze bus on the way to some child's sporting endeavour and/or impinge on my already seriously impinged desire/ability to go for a cycle.
i suspect this is all pretty typical of the Tahs demographic.

Right so you ARE up for Sunday afternoons. Next one is May 18 - Lions. Should be a thrashing and a kid-friendly crowd.

See you there

Leave it to me, I'll have a word to the Taphouse crew tomorrow.

Depends on kids rugby games: highly unlikely but of course the SJRU draw does not go that far out!
Suffice to say that most of one child's games seem to be at about 2pm on Sundays.

It's starting to look like you're blaming the Tahs office staff from 8 years ago for not wanting to have beers with us.

They should have told me not to encourage my kids to play club rugby!
Where's the taphouse anyway?

Thats a pub - or it was the last time i looked: and not one you'd go into lightly - although i seem recall it used to have topless waitresses

We need to highlight the player links between the Shute Shield clubs and the Super 15 teams to the fans to demonstrate that the SS is the foundation of the Waratahs.

We should play the Shute Shield match of the round on the field as the curtain raiser, we should play the 2nd grade game before that.

But unfortunately the Waratahs have actually taken steps to divorce themselves from SS in an administrative sense anyway.

Jason Allen is apparently CEO of the Waratahs section of NSW rugby only and as seen by the advertisement I posted earlier the SS is run by unpaid interns.

To me it's pathetic that the NSWRU doesn't have a CEO who is responsible for all aspects of rugby in the state. It's no wonder the game is going backwards.

Unfortunately no more topless waitresses, but the beer is nearly as good

Even the gold standard of Toplessness - Stanmore's Oxford Hotel - has gone Toplessless.

Since when?
I drove past the other day and thought they were still advertising topless - no wonder the Tahs can't pull a crowd: the world's turned upside down

Have a closer look at the sign next you go past. It's pretty clever.
