Pant 23 and Washington 21 years old. Pretty amazing BMT at that age.

One of the best test matches ever.

So you can only be a Kiwi if you are born in New Zealand? What about Neil Wagner, Irene van Dyk or Jerome Kaino? It's the Russell Crowe rule. If you're a dickhead and another country has any claim on you, you're from there instead. What if you're a dickhead like Sevu Reece? But very good at rugby.

Not sure if RR, but Mark Reason has climbed into our neighbours big time. Strange that is was the Indians called for intimodatory bowling yesterday I reckon he ejaculated 3 times while writing that. It's a bit of a shit piece but has been written to get clicks. It appears the players don't have any...

Neutral checking in for the lulz.

Reports in South Africa that Marco Masotti and MVM Holdings,who have just bought a controlling interest in the Sharks, are interested in doing the same with Sarries.

Yes. Persistent, desperately unfunny abuse.

You're more sensitive than an Indian cricketer. Lucky you don't live in Australia. Apparently they address strangers like this all the time.

JamesJames

:lol: Sorry boet - I'm not used to men referring to their "figure" or their "waistline" But you did. Out of the blue you bizarrely chose to comment on my figure. Remember when you called me a "fat c**t" a few posts up? Do you find larger men ugly? Men have a "physique", women have a "figure".

Yep

How does someone from India end up with the name of Washington?

How does someone from Australia end up with a name like Marnus?

Minorities also distrustful. African-Americans and Latinx communities displaying a lot of resistance.

So it's a racial issue?

What a bizarre attitude.

Partly, why do 95% of elite athletes in these sports happen to be white?

US tops 400k deaths (401,856) according to Worldometer https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Considering the Americans seem to give few fúcks, there’s little reason for anyone else to care much. What does that even mean? No reason to care much about 400k dead people? Am I being whooshed here o...

Ali's Choice wrote: ↑Sat Jan 16, 2021 3:46 am Is it fair to say that no nation, per capita, cares more about the America's Cup than NZ?

Yeah. It's a rich white man's sport. Not really going to grip the imaginations of any country that doesn't feature that demographic.

JamesJames

Yeah, noticed that threshold earlier. Covid is now knocking on the door of top ten most lethal pandemics of all time, just behind " a really bad dose of the flu". 2009 Swine Flu killed somewhere between 150,000 and 575,000 depending on estimates. 2013-19 Bird Flu killed 616. 2002-04 SARS killed 774...

Worldometer has just tipped over the 2m deaths mark. I assume the real number is significantly more than that. Yeah, noticed that threshold earlier.

Certain Australians seem to get so triggered by Indian cricket players. I blame Harbajhan Singh and the 2001 series. Prior to this series the Indians had seemed polite, humble sorts. Going about their cricket quietly but getting beaten up continually by the Aussies. Since then they've had a harder e...

I new he was going well but Jesus, that’s outstanding!

Some Boerseun backbone for Aussie batting lineup.

So I can work out if your set against banter in cricket/sport is the result of some sort of childhood trauma, or whether you a just a bit soft. So being against racism in sport and abuse is considered "being soft" in your books? No, and your attempt at straw-manning is one of the most piss poor pie...

So now you are using ad hominem attacks in order to achieve mental disintegration. How very Steve Waugh of you. QED. Why? Do you approve of bullying? I don't approve of it at all.

I thought you were Ellerfan or Grievous. Why did you reply to yourself seemingly by accident in a conversation with those two if you are not one of them ?

I meant to quote Ellafan's post about bullying.

No I went to a working/middle class government school. I also played sport in the army for 3 years. I still play squash, tennis and golf. What I don't do generally is abuse strangers because I'm losing an argument which is what you have just done now.

Squash, tennis, cricket, golf, rugby, water polo. Never used Australian mental disintegration tactics though.

Noncy's view of the world. Cricketer on the boundary has a tough day. Fans are sledging all day. Player happens to be non white. Player is over the sledging, complains to the umpire that he heard someone say black so n so but no one did. Umpire stops play. Ground security remove slegders, some inno...

He means Smith scratching the guard which isn’t in dispute, just the motivation behind it - i.e. one of his idiosyncrasies which he does all the time vs. something else. I don’t see the Siraj accusation playing out any other way than the investigation finding no evidence of racial slurs. That said,...

JamesJames

Good on Davey Warner for apologising on behalf of these racists. Always a tiny ugly minority. No representative of the majority.

JamesJames

The cognitive dissonance of Aus fans is quite spectacular here. To the left they shout, "there's no evidence of a racist comment, Siraj has clearly made this up". Then they turn to the right and decry actual evidence, "this is just something Smith does, nothing in it, move along". :uhoh: Where is t...

Aussie cricketing great Dan Christian says that Australia has a probmem with casual racism. Fucksakes. No racism is casual and the very idea that it can be is the problem.

I thought Ivan van Zyl had a good run. He was terrible as a bok. Maybe he's coming right. The sevens guys like Gans, Arendse, Specman were good. Still not a big fan of underweight rugby players. Kolbe and Faf are freaks who can live with the big dogs. Others must go back to sevens.

JamesJames

I thought at first they were a bunch of chickenshits, but after much thought I suspect they need this time for their very special conditioning... Great physical specimens, mind. tfw still so very salty about losing the World Cup. Thanks for shedding those delicious tears my friend. I hadn't tasted ...

Lol at all the Antipodean shrieking and hair-pulling. Calm down petals! It's been a tough year, OK so you're better at this pandemic stuff than us, we get it. Just play with each other this year m'kay. We'll use the time to put our u20's through couple of tren cycles and come back next year with som...

Loving all the high pitched shrieking from the South Pacific. They sound like high school girls before a fight.

Don't worry Mr D, if it's not your cup of tea there's plenty of NH club rugby to watch. Oh wait, you can't. Sucks to be you, I guess. Yeah well, we have people dying still in large numbers. So yeah it does suck. I guess NZ can add World Champion Covid Beaters to their trophy cabinet. The unbearable...
