Thiem > Nads.

Didn't see it (midnight our time) but sounded like an epic.

Venus out! Fed with a 5 set scare. Tsitsipas out. It’s so unfair. She’s a mother don’t you know. And the typical "it's all on me" interview. No credit to oponent. x( Where's Tae when she needs him.

One thing that struck me was the hard chines on the hull. No soft edges there.

Then, seeing that photo (clearest I've seen) the distance from the bottom of keel to ground . .

. Jesus, hate to catch that on a judder bar.

My wife who is in the know about these things says we are talking shit and if he was as bad as they say it could absolutely lead to the impulsive crazy shit he did.

I do know that if the running game works as well as it did yesterday for SF, you stick with it. But seeing KCs defense, that aparently wasn't higly rated completely dominating the Titan's , who were runing through everyone, got me thinking of what might happen against SF... They didn't. TEN changed...

Jimmy’s interception % is close to 3 which is way too high but I do think he’s good. Green Bay were such a fraud, the Saints ruined the NFC going out early. Awesome Super Bowl though. Say what? Honestly, not sure what that means. I posted the season stat above. 27/13 TD to INT. Not great but hardly...

Garropollo only attempted eight passes. That’s how dominant the niners were. I know, they completely steamrolled GB. But TEN was expected to do the same with KC, and they couldn't. What would happen if the Chiefs manage to nullify SF's runing game the way they did yesterday with the Titans' and SF ...

I watched it, thought it was really good. I did think they blamed CTE for a lot of his bad behaviour when it seemed like he was a moronic wannabe gangster and a genuinely terrible person too. When he was drafted he was offering to take voluntary drug tests , because of his record at college. His pr...

So what makes an ineligible player eligible? I dont understand that rule Apart from one player on each side of the line (usually a WR), you have to be a yard behind the LOS to be eligible. Basically on plays like that the lineman is lining up at TE, which you sometimes see on short yardage running ...

So you get 3 weeks at your employer's discretion and agree that the statutory minimum is 10 days. You know what mate, you might be right - hadn't thought of it like that as I've never heard anyone offered that number. But nobody takes the job if they're only offered 10 days I suspect (but obviously...

But sorry to hear you're unemployable.

Wasn't someone saying on the Prince Harry thread that Canada is the best place in the world to live...at those temperature's, I highly doubt it!

Greatest season ever by a college QB. Heisman, passing TD record, wins over 7 top 10 teams, undefeated natty, going to be #1 pick. :thumbup: I know Bama wasn't shit this year, relatively speaking, but his poise in that game sold me on him and LSU as the team to beat. I had a ton of fun watching/bet...

That debate was settled on Sunday. Nope. Season stats more or less identical. Both bloody good at their position and deserve the recognition they get. https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/stats/george-kittle-travis-kelce.php But it's the Chiefs to lose now, assuming they can handle Henry better than the...

If he wanted to reinvent himself, why not full back? He lacks a strong kicking game. And I don't think a modern day test fullback can afford to lack a strong kicking game. I think Rieko Ioane is creating a problem where none exists. George Bridge might have wrested the no.11 jersey from him for the...

No. Just no. And see the post above yours as one of many reasons.

It will be interesting to see how the meeja cover this, He's front and centre on a list of NZers we said the final goodbye to this year, ahead of Snell, Corlett/Williams, that builder guy etc. What odds on that pic getting tweaked. https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/world/final-goodbye-remembering-inf...

Of the two still missing, they said they saw one body in the water a couple of days ago. I wonder how it got there. Possibility the guy struggled towards the water after everyone had left? I read that last night (but didn't know it was a couple of days ago) and wondered why they didn't collect that...

I think they continued the mining after the initial OG turn of the century incident for quite a while, up to around the 1950's. I forget the name of that atoll we smacked over for all it's fertiliser resources. Ngaru rings a bell but it probably isn't. They had a lot more of it and it was easier to...

The risk for a team like the Ravens (or 49ers), where they sort of come out of nowhere to be good, is that at around this stage of the season teams start figuring them out. With Baltimore, the Bills had success slowing them down by stuffing the box and trusting their corners to shut the passing opt...

What an outstanding game. Brilliant 49ers Great game. First time I've actually been nervous this season. I've been downplaying their abilities (we've lost the close ones) and was already to stick with that agenda. But along comes Kittle. The mighty Kittle. :shock: :D . Great game. Kittle is sensati...

CFP rankings out, top four unchanged, Utes up to 5, Sooners to 6. This is all coming down to eye test at the weekend. I doubt a two loss Georgia will stay in, particularly over a one loss Oklahoma, so that's me it comes down to who wins best at the weekend. If Utah slap Oregon around and Oklahoma a...

LandOf, I got into it when I moved to Vancouver and was bored one rainy afternoon in November (lots of them :lol: ), and that would have been about 2000. So from my perspective, and my addled memory, I would say absolutely. It seemed, and just my impression, that very few college players were truly ...

Looking like it's going to be Clemson v Ohio State on the semi. Can Ohio beat Clemson Bones? Don't think so. Ohio isn't going to lose their #1 spot, so they'll play #4 Georgia. No reason for the committee to swap those 2 teams. And I think LSU are too good for Clemson and Ohio too good for Georgia....

Anyone know how I can get hold of this here vid. Via 'your' login or any other, ahem, means??

Kirky was a fabulous talisman for NZ rugby. As a wonderful scrummie myself I always looked up to him. But very interested in seeing this doco.

Grey Cup tomorrow evening from Calgary. The Hamilton Tiger-cats play the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. In a 9-team league, the Ti-Cats have not won the Grey Cup in 20 years, and the Blue Bombers have not won in 29. In the States, it starts at 6pm Eastern time and is broadcast on ESPN2. I bet you can't f**...

I'd hoped for better tbh, as an "older" poster... New shift will come along soon, with perhaps a change in direction. Either way, good luck. By chance I have a daughter in Ireland going to Uni and going to the Munster match tomorrow. I nearly threw it onto the match thread that she needed a ticket,...

Garrett suspended indefinitely. The NFLPA will be filing a labor grievance soon I'm sure. Ogunjobi - 1 game Pouncey - 3 games All players suspended without pay and will be fined. Browns and Steelers organizations each fined $250,000. Rudolph not suspended as punishment too? https://twitter.com/gore...

Oh and Rudolph should at least cop something for his scummy face grab that set Garrett off. Nope. That's just silly. QB trying to get 280 pounds off him as he is held down well after the ball is gone. Won't get a mention. But Pouncy 4 wks, and Garrett 6-8 wks I'd agree with. Edit: stay tuned for me...
