logging in to see what the reaction was to the Pendergast article and got to go down a memory lane I wish to forget... :blush: Worst losses I have attended France 2007 - first game at Croke park...very nice buzz to the game. O'Gara kicks us into the lead...everyone is clapping. And then the kickoff....

Apologies..they said visa renewals for this year…you all are right

tcc_dc

If you are inclined…All Blacks match in Chicago this fall…visas being worked for All Blacks right now.

Money train does not stop I see…

Looking at schedule it would be back to back as NZ is 1st game in Dublin

Apologies if already announced somewhere…

Very clear on the videos here the secret service says either Shooter, down or shooter's down

The US is going to burn this summer....

900k means that teams are probably offering him 150k signing bonus plus 750k salary (minimum) if he makes the team.

If he makes the practice squad, he will keep the 150k and make another 100k to 200k plus per diem.

Not too bad for a chance...

Another fan here...in the last 10 years he has put out some great films... Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent - funny and Pedro was great also Pig Snowden - small role Joe - underrated in my opinion Frozen Ground - perfect Cage..lol And Lords of War has got some early buzz about being potentially v...

Staggering numbers for a reserve player. Most rugby players wouldn't succeed but LRZ in particular doesn't seem like he has the attributes to succeed in NFL. But the washout is high...LRZ's agents will have to get him a good guarantee to make the risk worth it. And will be interesting to see what i...

tcc_dc

On the practice squad in the US, you make between 12k and 16k USD per week for 18 weeks...you get per diems and what not.. so, for LRZ he would probably make about 300k-400k in that year as he would get a signing bonus and guarantee... Signing bonuses can be anywhere from 20k to 150k for Undrafted F...

Va Tech Football - first and foremost Irish Rugby - close second...cant lie, the QFs have all but broken me...I dared to believe Washington Capitals - finally won the SC in 2018...will never complain Those 3 get my attention and priority...other teams or sports I follow Union - Munster - URC...used ...

people suck...i get angry sometimes at calls but it is not an easy job...

As someone in the US, it is garbage...you only get better by playing the best or at least a semblance of the best. If they really cared, they would have said that teams like the England Saxons would be part of the comps with the Tier 2. Sure the would still beat most tier 2 teams, but would provide ...

Would you feckers stop reliving it every day! It's not doing my attempt to pretend I'm OK about it any good! Could be worse...I am down 1200 euros as no one would buy the SFs tickets from the main ticket site so I dumped them on Ticombo for half :blush: Sending the tickets today hurt my soul.... Br...

I know this is breaking news....lots and lots of green around in Paris today..... I think I have seen more SA supporters than NZ ones to be honest...and the SA fans are fully behind Ireland :lol: ...everyone who stops and chats is like you all are going to put them out right? About 28 hours to go......

tcc_dc

I feel positive about the match...if both Lowe and Hansen were out I would have been concerned..

But I think this is the redemption tour...

NZ - 100 years plus 2019 QFs
Argentina - 99 QFs,2007 Pool, 2015 QFs or Wales 2011 QF
France - loads of 5n and 6N plus 95 QFs, 2003 QFs, 2007 Pool

Barnes named as ref for the match...

weather looks like some rain in the morning but clearing out during the day...

tcc_dc

it took me about a week to finally get tickets...it sucked.

But I did switch to my IPAD and did not have as many timeouts...and got lucky.

WHatever comes up just buy them...if you pause you are doomed

Yeeeeeeeesssss Portugal

tcc_dc

tcc_dc

all hell breaking loose now

tcc_dc

tcc_dc

tcc_dc

can't believe that was not a red....

tcc_dc

good on you Romania....a little fight back...

nice try

tcc_dc

what a match...Pumas back in

tcc_dc

I love Japan and Argie fans...some of the best

tcc_dc

Maybe being positive, but I feel Lowe will play.

So, does that put McCloskey straight in the 15 if Henshaw and Earls is out? Or would they keep him in reserve just in case?

tcc_dc

Way to fight back Georgia

tcc_dc

Fiji in...great finish

tcc_dc

Back in the US so will not be at this match...if anyone wants the tickets for free to attend...email me at tcc_dc @ hotmail . com

It will be interesting the crowd divide at the match...everywhere yesterday in Paris from Versailles, to the Rugby Village (at 4pm), to Corcorans and the pubs has been a lot of Irish fans. For about every 5 Irish jersey/hat/etc I see one Bokke supporter. And for those at the pubs last night, hope th...

My official whine.... In Nice for 3 matches... Took the local train to Nice St Augustin to catch the tram. No signage at stations on where to go. Got.to St Augustin and little help and lots of issues for people to get tickets for the tram. Felt really bad for the Japanese fans...should have been vol...
