This point has already likely been made, but fudge if I'm going to read all those pages...but isnt the rights reaction to the Charlie Kirk incident a good example of how empathy often works in a very selective way on the right. When something directly impacts their own circle, there’s immediate outr...

Is it only me who is amazed this hasn't happened sooner? I was convinced through the 90's and early 00's that someone high up in the NRA (the original 2nd Amendment WUMs) would, in an act of outrageous irony, be taken out by some disgruntled gun owner. Just amazed it's taken this long...and the real...

NZ must be an extraordinary wilderness to go on the run for that long. Hard to get my head around in the UK. Netflix beckons on this one. Huge bush areas in NZ that are hard to search.. even with a drone... not really anything comparable in the UK. Except possibly small parts of Scotland. https://w...

Surely it's now time to send in the military to scour the countryside for the other two kids.

Including last season Auckland have lost like 9 or 10 games in a row. I doubt before that Auckland had ever lost more than 4 or 5 in a row in its history. What a disgrace. In fact, all three Auckland based teams are 0-5 for the season. This is disgusting to me and I think it's time we disband North...

With the increase in women's rugby, new scope for abusing refs has presented itself: Top women's rugby star Sinead Peach faces a potentially big ban on Thursday after being accused of a shocking remark to a male referee that has stunned the wider rugby world.

The Argies as well are showing that some truths always hold true. They physically bullied the All Blacks. If they just had a bit more control, they'd be a serious threat to everyone.

With a bit more concentration, we could have easily had 60.

Northland have gone in dry and with no mercy. 4 tries and leading 26-5 at half time at Eden Park.

Haven't watched it in years and used to watch it a fair bit, Wigan V Hull on now and its so strange to watch, the defence is fantastic but support lines do not exist which I find really strange, poor ref is really only there to count to 5. The support line thing is the most frustrating aspect in my...

We have quite large doctor unemployment problem apparently. And stop being so dramatic.

A third of doctors in the country weren't born here. Score. Don't you see that as the necessity it is?

Neither of these statistics is positive. You all never fail to live down to my expectations. A third of doctors in the country weren't born here. Score. Don't you see that as the necessity it is? If you 'kicked em all out' tomorrow, British people would be dying in the streets by the weekend.

One of my bucket list items was following the Lions around (as much as I could) during the last Lions tour. Was still a decent spend even though I live here.

Welsh Rugby Union chief executive Abi Tierney insists no decision has been made over the futures of the Ospreys and Scarlets, after rumours were rife that the union wants a team based in Swansea over Llanelli.

Jeff the Bear

Just the 30 turnovers in the match.

Northland win by being marginally less shit.

Jeff the Bear

It's 3 maul tries to Northland against 2 charge down tries to Southland.

There's nothing to like about this game. I'm sure we're past 20 knock ons.

Second half starts...doesn't kick it 10m.

This is not the worst game of rugby I've ever watched...but it's in my top 5.

This game is like watching two eunachs f**king. Jesus Christ!

Yeah, I read that this morning. A level of outrageous parochialism hitherto unseen. They should be ashamed of themselves. Proper stasi selling-out-your-neighbours shit right there.

Always worth remembering that the result 2013 hinged on Beale slipping when taking a pretty easy kick on the first test. Jiffy Jnr was amazing in 2017. I thought he was average in 2013..remember him missing the key tackle to let Aus win the 2nd test. It's also worth remembering that Australia were ...

Best positional fullback of the pro era, and his kicking on the 2013 series was near flawless. One of the best kicking performances you'll ever see.

How can you possibly have a rugby mount rushmore, and not have the highest cap test player of all time?

I don't know who called it, but someone on here reckoned he'd be off to the new league. The Daily Hate are running with the same story:

He's been really good. Will always have a problem being so diminutive, but he's a solid pro.
