Re: SBW vs Sam Burgess - NRL's biggest rivalry to union

The Tahs are like the Chicago Cubs.
Big market, a loyal corps of fans, but most of the rest of the city cheers for someone else, they often promise early but never win anything.
Plus the mascot is stupid.

Re: Russia a rogue terrorist state.
Estonians hate Russians. Latvians hate them even worse, but the languages are similar and they look similar, so its less noticeable.
I think Estonia is about 25% ethnic Russians and Latvia about a third.

Re: Mark Reason: 7 teams can make the RWC final
How is it 5 times? It is 8.
The draw is weird, with the 3N potentially all on the same side.
Remember 2007? The major players could get knocked out at the quarter final level. It seems more likely now than it did then.

There are a lot of Navy assets based in the Sydney Basin.
There no doubt will be eventually a plan to move these elsewhere. Maybe Wollongong once the Steelworks finally goes bankrupt.
