Re: Rebels vs Crusaders: MATCH THREAD: Fri 21st April
Rebs player slides into MacLeod with his knees as MacLeod scores a try. No penalty for this filthy play. Is this how you play the "blame the ref for everything" game? That actually was really late - he should be pinged for that… I agreed with your earlier comment about Ennor sneaking in one extra r...

Re: RTS. Return to Sender.
To be fair, he was an exceptional RL player and only a good Rugby player. Sums it up exactly. And I don't think he's failed, a failure is someone who doesn't try something, he tried rugby and was good, but as you say not really exceptional. He'll always be a dual international. That's pretty cool. ...

Re: South Island NZ - Must do's for Old Farts
Sorry to have to cancel the planned get togethers with some of you. My sister has died and we are heading home - will reschedule the rest of our tour after winter and hopefully catch up then. Also hoping I will have a Super Rugby title under the belt to crow about of course. Condolences, old friend.
