How much are the fans of the habitually bitched sides loving a losing Crusaders season? Lots. I honestly thought I'd start feeling sorry for their players and fans but, you know, I don't. Not one bit. Feels good actually. So it should. Fu c king enjoy it. I certainly did. In a self-contained and th...

Jesus. Keeping in mind I have an 18 year old daughter at home plus a 22 year old who visits regularly. I still reguarly get the gripe that there's nothing to watch on TV.

Yep I said after last home game, big ups to the ones that keep turning up to support their team.

And it was a decent-sized crowd too!

I anticipated leaving the stadium miserable and bitter, not surprised but pleased.

Ryan - two games and five tries. Can play a bit.

Nor do I, altho’ it gives me no pleasure to say it.

Whatever the case, I will be sitting somewhere in Appalling Projectilevomiting Stadium watching the match unfold in steadily mounting horror.

I'm a Rugby fan and I'm envious of lots of things about Rugby League. I'm envious at the crowds the NRL attracts here in Australia, whilst Super Rugby crowds continue to dwindle. I'm envious that they have ample, live free to air coverage, whilst Rugby is hidden away behind the worst streaming serv...

It’s utterly reasonable to ask. It’s equally reasonable for the Vic Government to say politely, Go fúck your hat.

Which they may not, of course.

MungoMan

Is it just me or has goal kicking taken a turn for the faecal this season?

Has Gilbert slipped soup rugby a bunch of factory seconds?

Yeah that was bullshit too.

The Tags coming back with some pressure of their own at the end of the half. Hopefully that's not indicative of the Canes taking their foot off the throat. This ref ain't great is he. Not detrimental to any team yet, but. Ignoring above-shoulder tackles when the contact isn’t solid, ignoring off-yo...

What are you talking about? He was arguably the best fullback in the world. His kicking was fine. His kicking was merely adequate. It was his biggest downfall.

That’s something I hear, but I never got bored playing rugby when I didn’t personally have the ball. There’s plenty of stuff to do and think about, right? I played hooker in both sports.

It's an indication of the nonsense on your argument when you resort to 'deaths from one cause averted'. Everyone dies, and the vaccine didn't stop anyone from being killed by cancer? Non-covid excess deaths far outweigh the covid deaths supposedly avoided, and they are across all ages rather than t...
