World Rugby has announced that the Rugby World Cup 2023 draw will take place in Paris at Palais Brongniart on 14 December. The draw will be pushed back from the previously announced date by two weeks to 14 December owing to the ongoing impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on rugby and event-hosting acti...

Thank you DOB and TheFrog for your explanation yesterday, both the explanations makes sense. Cheers

I was wondering if anyone knows, why are the Time Trials so much shorter than an usually stage? I get it that there is no protection and rest afforded to riders in a peloton. Is there any other reason why the TTS couldn’t be twice as long?

Ideally, Homebush for Bledisloe doubleheader
Games also at
Canberra
Newcastle

I was looking through my memories on Facebook this morning and it had a memory from 10 years ago of a Sydney Cabal. Not any cabal, but the one where Coogee raised from the dead and attended. From memory there was Sluggy, Waratah, Mat the expat, Ika plus many many more. I remember kicking off at the...

How good is it to see the Force use the W.A’s state colours in their uniform. It was good to see them not wear blue. I never understood why they went with blue in the beginning

If this is super rugby, should all game time be “Super time” and not just extra time. To me extra time should be called Super Duper time.

I love the break-down of “Saved by the bell” in the YouTube clips “Zack Morris is trash”. It shows that even though he thinks he is the good guy, almost every episode he is shown to cut other people down in pursuit of his own agenda https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v1yuXghn3OY https://m.youtube.com/wat...

Better Call Saul is brilliant, and this season has been episode after episode of riveting TV. Most of the acting, writing and shooting is top drawer stuff. What a character Lalo is. Has been rivalling Breaking Bad for me. I watched it for a while but it was too “gimmicky” or something compared to B...

Growing up in the 80’s and early 90’s I could not stand Michael Caine. I think movies like Educating Rita, , Dirty Rotten Scoundrels were a bit beyond me as a pre-teen/early teen. It wasn’t until I saw him in Austin Powers: Goldmember that I started to get what every adult I’d known use to rave abou...

The pies in England are rubbish. Pukka Pies ffs. I best pie I’ve ever had was one in Picton, New Zealand.

I have taken an interest in the primaries since around 2000, although I’m not super knowledgeable about them but would know more about them compared to a vast majority of people I know (living in Australia). Can anybody explain to me why Tulsi Gabbard hasn’t gained much traction in the race so far?

Saw some filming in New York and was told it was 3rd series?

I love the show “You”. Although the whole two series were excellent IMHO I feel the last minute of series 2 was like “come on, really?

I'm sure bush fires have always been a problem as I know the ecosystem there depends on it but has it been become worse due to climate change? If it becomes very frequent maybe huge areas will become uninhabitable and resources concentrated on managing fires close to the cities. Fire behaviour is c...

My cousins are currently on alert in the Blue Mountains with everything packed and ready to go destined for my place with their 4 dogs and 2 cats if things go sideways.

Forgive me if this is an incredibly stupid question, I just never had much interest. How does the Football World cup work? Are there any auto's like winner and runner up from last time, or is it all teams having to qualify in different regions? Only the host from memory, every other team needs to q...

It's a once every 4 years jolly. No point in disrupting the proper rugby tournaments to sort out qualifiers IMO This is the type of shit attitude that keeps rugby from growing. It’s not really. They tried this one year and the qualifiers were terrible. Imagine minnows with about a week to prepare v...

gurudoright

modern calendar doesn't allow for these type of games, why take a financial hit playing a minnow instead of a tier 1 test ? the result is a foregone conclusion anyway So Italy vs Georgia is a foregone conclusion? Yep ok 👌 if they are in a group of three or four and had to play the two or three game...

I know the 12 team automatic qualification for the next World Cup has been a thing for a while. The thing is, do we really need 12 automatic qualifiers? Im not Trying to put a number on how many should automatic qualify. Do we need 12 spots from 20 at a RWC taken up by the results from the previous ...

If you are looking for new potential countries to host besides Italy, Argentina and USA with/or Canada, in the not so near distance future (20-30 years time) you could possibly in the future look at an Iberian World Cup hosted by Spain and Portugal, especially if the WC is expanded to 24 teams.

No. And the 3rd/4th place play off should be binned as well. Yes, is there a more pointless game. Nobody wants to play in it 1995 was the exception when it winning meant you didn't play the qualifiers If it was part of automatic qualification I would say yes.

This is Namibia’s sixth appearance at the Rugby World Cup, yet they have never recorded a victory in 22 tournament matches. Canada have been on the downward spiral over the last few years. Many were predicting Namibia to record their first victory today. Could Namibia feel hard done by or is the a s...

Kayo has been shit for me, often lacking at key moments . It goes from a pretty good picture to 1970s clarity throughout the whole game. I’m forced to watch the Wallabies game on Channel 10 despite having to listen to Gordon Bray. At least I’m sure to get a decent picture.
