Geez, that jersey looks very different to the ones we wore when I was playing for Hammers.

Look to be only half the weight, for a start.

As a Chiefs fan I never thought I'd say this but I hope the Blues smash the plum. And the sound I can hear is my Dad spinning in his grave.

Of the 19 people who died in the last 24 hours, 14 were in aged care homes.

Deaths will also take longer to decline as they are linked to the last couple of weeks, where numbers were much higher.

Arsenal won't challenge top 4. Spurs will. Liverpool United City Chelsea In that order next year I bet they will challenge. I also doubt United will overhaul City next season. Thats a very ambitious prediction for United! :lol: I'm also not entirely convinced we will be top again. 97 points and 99 ...

Hard to fathom that in his last test, he took the field with John Kirwan, yet he played alongside players like Grizz Wylie, SId Going, Grant Batty, he probably marked Pinetree in a game or two...

CAS' judgement on Man City released. They found that UEFA did not prove that City broke any rules on sponsorship and as such the ban had to be overturned. The fine was for failing to cooperate with the investigation. Not a good look for UEFA's case against them and their enforcement and investigati...

So it turns out that Liverpool won the league prior to lockdown anyway :lol: Liverpool 82 points as of 8th March, last games before lockdown. Manchester City 81 points at end of season.

I do agree that NZR has been too loyal to South Africa, and too unwilling to explore other options in the past. I'm not sure why this was the case - potentially it comes down to personal friendships that exist between NZR and the SARU? The original format, and then the expanded team formats, were n...

I don’t like the system. It favours teams more likely to win, another case of blatant crusader favouritism from the powers that be. I see it more as a slap in the face for all those countries that favour convoluted finals series structures (yes, gidday Oz) - this is like the premier league - much s...

Personally I think protests now, in the tail of Covid, are moronic. The Adelaide one was fine as we have 0 active cases, but the Sydney and Melbourne ones have me nervous. It wouldn't take much for 100s or 1000s to get infected. One of the key Sydney organizers is telling people to ignore medical a...
