Portugal and Georgia. They are good teams right?

We gave Fiji a scare, too.

Such a stupid, egotistical, comment.

Holy, that would have been incredible :thumbup: It was. Almost as good as winning the Bledisloe!!! Bloody hell, that's classic, both the venue and the performer. What I Say has been a playlist Spinstaple for years, love it. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2a/Burns-Johnson_box...

It has occurred to me that maybe the southern hemisphere should go it alone, playing a hybrid game incorporating both rugby and rugby league.

Ray Charles back in the late fifties, early sixties, at Sydney Stadium Rushcutters Bay. He toured three times, I saw him every time.

Getting back to EJ, you just knew he would walk in the 2nd half against Wales. His highly performative head in hands, shielding his eyes schtick in the coaching booth was a clear attempt to broadcast self-displacement from any responsibility. Meanwhile his charges were out there in public playing a...

Can we all move on, now? Four more years and all that?

What's Jake White doing?

Simon Cron is my pick.

Sad that Aaron Smith missed out on a try. My wife's favourite AB.

wamberal

As a neutral observer, I believe the ABs should have won that. I really thought they would, especially when Kolbe was binned.

Why oh why didn't they run the ball more in those last 10 minutes? Run the bloody thing from anywhere.

Hamas' reckless disregard for life --- including their fellow Gazans, is underpinned by their belief that as martyrs they will go straight to "paradise".

Fark me, religious extremism has a lot to answer for.

At the back of the LNP voter mind is the idea that they're family will be well off enough to pay their way to safety. :| I am certain that a large proportion of LNP voters either do not accept climate science, or believe that some deus ex machina will appear. Pigmy nuclear reactors, for example. Th...

I want to see a fair, open contest with no controversies and no serious injuries.

I lived amongst and worked with Chinese people for many years, and I can assure you that they are certain that they are a master race, we are all inferior.

Is he the fella Trump called a white cúnt?

No?

Then the answer to your question is me.

No interest in US politics?

If South Africa cannot field a team with at least one hooker they would have to forfeit.

wamberal

There is a fair chance that the Saffers will not have one specialist hooker in their match-day 23.

Might as well call the game off now.

We have to assume that at this stage of his working life, he is motivated to want to achieve something other than lots of money. Here's hoping, anyway.

Only taking one 10 and a rookie at that is just plain reckless.

He took two 10s. Donaldson is a 10.

There were at least 30 police in Darling Harbour/Square/Tumbalong Park today. It is the opening day of SXSW today but I've never seen them lay on that many police for any of the other festivals. Did they think things would kick off after the Voice? Or the Hamas/Israel shitfight? Hamas/Israel by a m...

Albo farked it up. He seemed to spend all his time telling us how emotional he felt about it. It is interesting that the Yes vote was strongest in richer and younger electorates (full of commies according to our resident nutcase). The cost of living is the biggest issue now. Apart from Dutton being ...

No one in the world outside NSW/QL, Auckland and North England are thinking about League, when they hear the word rugby. They either don't know it exists or don't care. Yeah, that's why there are no Fijians, Tongans, Samoans, or Cook Islanders busting their guts to get a loig contract. All those gu...

Love it. As much as the NRL types may be loving this. The Wallabies do represent the Australian national brand. For the Wallabies to be a joke isn’t, while not catastrophic, good for the country. Yep, safe to say there is a global stereotype that 'Aussies love rugby'.. particularly amongst national...

I saw this from a mile away hence I was calling for Foley to be taken. People were mocking me for it but here we are. Popgun Foley? Do you really think that he would have made a difference?

There may still be a Rod Macqueen out there to replace Eddie (although that’s not a flattering analogy for the far more likable Greg Smith). Tough times and very hard to see Wallaby rugby in this state. Apart from some of Eddie's weird selections, we just do not have the depth to do without both Tu...

Under Rennie they beat both SA and NZ... SA more than once... ran France close in Paris last Autumn 30-29 and only lost to Ireland in Dublin last year 13-10.... they looked a decent side...
