Well, I mean, if you are going to misread what I wrote originally, at least own it

Put on your HEMA gauntlets and give yourself an uppercut.
For someone who's job involves detail.....

I'm sure you think that is some clever gotcha

The player wants to be french.

The player wants money from a rich NH union, and is prepared to sacrifice his identity to achieve this.

I think you may have forgotten the post I was referencing: :lol: That was semi trolling , but seriously though for pacficaussports funding, you'd imagine they'd need to play the majority of their games in Samoa and/or Tonga. :x :lol: But yeah, agree, for that funding, but they can't even play their...

OK, absolutely no blazer-wearing wankers in NSW Rugby clubs, they only go to AFL clubs :roll: Wtf are you talking about? Why are you such a punish? I'm talking about this particular guy. He has mad Swans member face. Well, I mean, if you are going to misread what I wrote originally, at least own it...

I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about. I've never spent time at Sydney Uni. But I've spent shiploads of time at rugby clubs. He looks like an afl guy. Plenty of wankers in rugby clubs, but they tend to be in b2b sales rather than skinny policy wonks OK, absolutely no blazer-wearing wan...

My post was incredibly clear. "It partially is, albeit indirectly." I think you may have forgotten the post I was referencing: That would require them playing way nore games in tonga and Samoa and not just being a nz development team. :lol: That was semi trolling, but seriously though for pacficaus...

Why don't you tell me since you seem to be in the know? Then we can get into the nuance. I don't feel like researching, but off the top of my head, there have been a few. Main ones off the top of my head are Tavatavanawai and Aumua. Enari would be another. There must be others I can't name off the ...

Zakar

Damn, I just finished this with the American, now I have deal with you too. :lol: I'll say the same thing I asked him, apart from the guy who committed to Tonga as a teen - who are all the players that have been developed for NZ, even indirectly? How many players from MP have gone on to sign for ot...

Zakar

I said I was done with you but this post is so disingenuous in the context of what we have been arguing about it needs to be pointed out. We're arguing about whether or not MP is a development team for NZ (and it's not), not what is the best use of WR funds. You're just moving the goalposts with th...

I get more Swans member vibes. Hasn't played rugby since the St Fuckwits 14Ds type. Maaaate, now you're just trying too hard. :nod: I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about.

I looked him up. AFL
And if he lived in Sydney, he'd have been a regular at the Cabana Bar

No way, those glasses and that build? No way he's into club rugby. Maybe watching Shore play at the annual old Boys reunion or something.

To be fair, you could easily see him, and a million clones of him at any Rugby Club in Oz :lol: I get 0 rugby club vibes from him. Golf absolutely. Bullshit!

Who the fvck knows what will happen in the future, all we do know is that you've got one example, and if it happens one more time when MP has 180 players then who cares? That doesn't make it a NZ development team outside of your delusion. You can only be trolling at this stage so I'm done with you ...

This is Daniel Wild: https://ipa.org.au/wp-content/uploads/avatars/42/1686873481-bpfull.jpg Never until this very moment have I seen a man with such a strong resting 'I definitely run a conservative Think Tank' face.

FYI Lions fans, there are no Tahs fans on the board, so don't expect a match thread to be made.

Zakar

Bahaha. Great retort. If I criticize Catholic ideology for being unscientific, sexist, homophobic, and complicit in covering up abuse, would you call me "Cathlophobic" as if I'm a bigot? You wouldn't. In fact you're probably be all-on-board. You equate critique with bigotry, which you've muddled up...

To me, it sounds like you guys are having too many meetings and not doing enough work… But the AoC should really only be brought out at the wider significant departmental/all team meetings and not just for every minor catch up. Ridiculous idea, who decides what's a significant meeting or what is mi...

Zakar

What? lol. That sounds a little much. You're doing it in the workplace before team meetings? wtf. Who is doing it? It's common place. Happened twice in one huddle, as we had two guests back to back who both did it. When people say they are over AOC that's what they mean. My son does it every mornin...

Stupid to keep playing. Asking for an injury.

Hopefully the Lions get Dolemaned ... Reds have 2 kiwis to their 1, so someone might be sneaking him a bottle of cane champagne later.

Zakar

It's not really, though. I mean ... who is complaining about Aboriginal jerseys? Or aboriginal invitational sides? Most people think those things are really cool. So just painting everything with the "racist" brush is unhelpful and antagonizing and divisive. As always. I think the reality is that t...

The acknowledgement of country is a bit overdone but it really only annoys white racists. It's not really, though. I mean ... who is complaining about Aboriginal jerseys?

I like Welcome to Country...particularly when they pick their audience well. I really like that it annoys the gammons here.

AoC though...can be good, can be a box ticking waste of time.

Agreed
Outside of an ACL or syndesmosis, has to be one of the worst injuries to pick up. You'd have to think he might be out for the series.

Calf injuries have a big spectrum though. It may be precautionary

What's the likely Brumbies team? Guessing they won't push the Lions so much this time given the amount of players not released from the Wobs. Well hopefully Cale is right. If s something like 1.

You're really not clear on this Lions concept, are you?

At least you've finally worked out how many Welsh players are on the tour.
You really feel part of it do you
That's sort of how the Lions works, yes.

I'm sorry you'll never get to experience it.

Toole and Kellaway back to their respective teams for the Lions matches. Guessing that means Kellaway no longer first choice. Jorgo, Daugunu and Pietsch now the preferred wings and bench?
