Re: AUNZ XV v Lions
Just popped in to my local Uncle Dan's to buy some drinks for drinking this afternoon and evening (going to fire up the fire pit and so forth before the game) and decided to wear my brand new Wallaby supporter jersey ($45 Best and Less version). As I walked down an aisle, some bloke yelled out "Less...

Re: Golfighting, a new sport is on the horizon?
Haha. Seen lots of these online. I haven't played golf in over 10 years after being very active at my local club for 15 years before. I only ever saw a couple of fracas in the car park over allegations of cheating, never a full punch up on the course. I don't think I will go back to it as frankly I...

Re: Wallabies 2025: Revenge of the Schmidt
Feeling very conflicted about cheering for Frizell.
This looks like a team designed to belt the snot out of another one.

Re: Brumbies v Lions Wed, Jul 9
The SOO match will likely be in the top 5 watched programs for the whole year. It's a decider so it will rate highly.
I'll be watching both somehow. I'm a rabid QLDer so it is in my DNA to get all frothy-mouthed at this time of year.

Re: GAME OF THE WEEK: Australia vs Fiji
Wallabies played dumb in parts but dominated the first half. If Lolesio hadn't had a brain fart, it would have been 14-0 at half time. I just hate how teams try and place loose against Fiji. They love that shit. Revel in it. Tighten it up, play for set piece dominance and the holes will open.
