Waratahs v Blues, Saturday 28 March, Round 7 2015

[vegascane]

Kaino should be back for this one. Blues have real problems at 9/10 this season. Their midfield is a revolving door and the back 3 is playing poorly as a unit.

Tahs by plenty

Blues have had probems at 9/10 since Divine and Spencer days in the early 2000's...they need a general to direct and lead

 

[Pfitzy]

As if it'd be my wedding. I organised mine to coincide with the tahs playing in south Africa, so I could watch it after the party

If you were a real man on your wedding night, you'd still be ploughing ground at that point.

 

[Nusadan]

I always tell my oldest son that I had an eye on the 1991 RWC final first half whilst ploughing the said ground in front of the TV set in hopes of him continuing the fine family tradition of playing rugby.

Alas my hopes have been dashed, he plays first grade AFL in Wagga nowadays!

 

[vegascane]

Hope they had an arrangement in place so the last one out switched the lights off.

haha...would turn the lights out but then we need them to shine on all the trophies we have in our overflowing cabinets at Rugby House...lol...

But I think its great we send you our excess rugby players to help increase your rugby IQ ...like Quade, Joe, George, Sekope, Mike, Tamati, Scott, Pek, Adam. We are do generous to Australian Rugby.

Soon the Wallabies will look a lot similar to the AB's. lol

If he has to think about his parents going at it every time he sees rugby I'm not surprised he picked another game.

How do you explain the other ones then? The ones clogging up Subbies rugby claiming they're "All Black Triallists" who don't think they have to pay rego?

All of them should be abiding by whatever rules, policies and regulations that are in the competition they are playing in full stop, regardless of if that's in NSW, QLD or VIC, or if they are former internationals or club social players looking to keep active. You play here, you pay here! Simple.

 

[GTPIH]

My wedding was the night of the 1991 RWC final (I know poor planning on my part). I fulfilled my obligations vis-a-vis consummation and settled down to watch. The wife was worn out and only caught the first half. Unfortunately, this meant there was no post match celebration.

Well my daughter got married on the day of "the Sydney Bledisloe 2000" and when I pointed out it was on a Test day her reply was well you will have to record it Dad!! To which I answered, but you are my only daughter,had wanted to see you get married live!!

I watched test on replay.

Is that like a tree falling in a forest?

Jeez, I was at a wedding on that day - remember getting texts on my old Nokia from mates there about the score. I thought they were making shit up.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

^^ reminds me of the old story about the Kiwi bloke at the Bledisloe Test who had an empty seat beside him. When asked he said he bought tickets for him and his wife a long time ago, but that she had passed away. Asked if he could have given the ticket to his children or any of his friends he replied that he had tried to do that, but they all insisted on going to her funeral instead.

On cyber-paper, that's a good collection of players.

They have a great set of wingers. Left wing, right wing, back wing and two centre wings.

Indeed. A good collection of names. Whether it's a good team is another matter. Plenty of talent there though.

Halftime Penalty goal is more than enough time

Fixed.

The singing of the national anthems is time enough.
