Well mate that's just bullshit. Its a competition of 15 provinces and not 3 countries. I respect that other rugby fans may have a different view. I support the Reds and am more than comfortable on cheering for the outcome that best suits them. If that don't apply I will take the underdog any day of the week. Sully above has nailed my reasons for taking the Saders and as said in my original post that it is nothing personal. My outlook changes when Australian players unite in a Wallaby jersey.
I would stereotype your bullshit on the basis of who you support but that would be an injustice to other supporters of that team. Rather I will stereotype you as the sort who jumps in front of the keyboard and strings two sentences of crap together that have not added any value to the forum.
good day to you sir and apologies to other members for disrupting the conversation at hand.
Very sorry for not adding any value to the forum.As you mention,other rugby fans may have a different view and I happen to be one of those.It may be that it's 15 provinces but I can't separate the fact they are from 3 different countries and I will continue to support ALL the Australian teams against the Kiwis and Saffers.Anyway,you got your wish but unfortunately your team could not take full advantage.
My comment also was not a personal attack on you(unlike yours to me)but just a comment on how much more parochial Reds supporters seem to be compared to others,be that good or bad.It was not meant to offend you in any way.
