$100 x 400 people = $40k
If you can afford to host 400 people for a wedding, but you don’t have 10% down for a gaff, you need to review your priorities!
Parents often pay for weddings.

A shameful relic of the past, that! No place in today's society. Dreadful, utterly dreadful!

I certainly commented on being from memory, watched the video, and I'm adament the wrong ruling was made. It was a maul. I'm not getting too much into the technicalities of whether it was a maul or a tackle, the ball carriers knees were on the ground so technically it's a tackle under the current r...

Naive. They will keep coming south to treasure island.

That’s not a face one forgets. It is not. It's why, from even a small low-res photo, I knew for more-or-less certain it was the same fella whose image appeared in so many print and online local media outlets.

However perhaps it me but in all my time on this bored, talking to friends in the clubhouse, no one has ever said "we need to fix the problem with kickoff landing in the opposition 22"..

It means kicks off have to be short, kickoff long into the opposition territory never seemed like a problem area to me. I might mean you have to target non kickers, or put it down the middle, I don't simply accept the premise that kicks can't go long however. But we shall see However perhaps it me ...

Ok, I admit I'm no fan of league, but nor am I a rah rah troll. However, handing out relatively soft fines for dangerous play that injures smacks of "look how diligently we're trying to stamp out the dangerous stuff in league", disingenuous window dressing. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/350276701/r...

MungoMan

Yeah I looked at the video posted now and his knee and prior to that butt hit the ground about 2m before the line. Once he sits or his knee hits the ground it's a tackle. It's a tackle whether or not the ref calls it according to the laws. It's the Crusaders player who them drags him over the line....

Shirley the bored has one or two fat bastards not otherwise occupied next weekend?

MungoMan

The correct ruling is... Ball carrier plus tackler(in this case two) plus another from the ball carriers team equals a maul. Law... "It consists of a ball carrier and at least one player from each team, bound together and on their feet." So it was a maul not a tackle therefore the ref was wrong to ...

MungoMan

Both still hit harder than Papali'i That's quite a petulant response Zakar. I don't think any of the options are as bad as defenders as you guys make out. Certainly no worse than the current t starters in NZ. That's probably true. I was gutted to see Zarn Sullivan go down on the weekend. Most under...

I recall the players being stationary and the players knee being on the ground before Bower joining. Whether the ref called tackle release late is irrelevant. It was already a tackle before Bower joined. There were also several foul play incidents by the Crusaders ignored by the ref and yet he gave...

The question is whether there is a useful distinction to make between a criminal who acts on a sexual attraction to teenagers and one who acts on a sexual attraction to prepubescent children.

Well, They both join right as the video hits 5:09, with tackled player about 3 meters out and his support people behind them. it takes about 1.5 seconds for play to move almost to the line where the ref then says "tackle release now". Finishing that sentence just as the video clicks over to 5:11. A...

The Dung should’ve locked down a 23 spot after last night. He’s the form 13 in Australia (Lenny is clearly first picked - pure class and test match record) and can play wing and 15 at a pinch.

And do you think it works? Well before the Dupont loophole was even a glint in his parents' eyes. Close that, and yes, it mainly works. If it is shown to work. Why not extend the mark to all areas of the pitch, like in the olden days? Why not bring back two-three-two + wing forward scrum formations...

What is the definition of ‘pedophile’ that you’re using?
Q.E.D.
Can you post a link to a dictionary definition that aligns with your personal definition?

I'm anticipating more of a demonstration of yelling and arm-windmilling.

This result makes me so very happy.

Those aren't options. Those are all penalties. How about the ref plays to the rules? None of those things are penalties. Into touch would be a defending lineout, and over the line would be a dropout. They chose badly and conceded a try. Once it's called tackle all players must release. If you keep ...
