Not sure about the galaxy since rugby ranks somewhere way below ping pong, handball, and weiqi in galactic popularity

BELIEVE IT!!

Glad to be of service!

Strong logical argument.

Nope!

Last World Cup actually....I seem to remember France in the final

Yessum.......but ain't it fun stirring the Aussies

Comment from an expert...Jonny Wilkinson, "I don't quite know how a team ever let him go in Australia to come over here." Jonny Wilkinson on Matt Giteau. "He's exceptional," Wilkinson said of Giteau, who left Super Rugby's Brumbies for the Top 14 after he failed to make the Wallabies squad...

Do you mean that Ali Williams, Juan Smit,Brian Habana,Leigh Halfpenny, Carl Hayman, Bastareaux, Mermoz, O'Connor, Mitchell, Juam Frnandez Lobbe just to name a few from ONE team wouldn't make the Wallabies side. You cannot be serious!

Of course! just like Dan Carter behind the AB pack! looks much better. His time in Australia was behind a very inferior pack, so as they say in the movies--follow the money --- and the money says he's better than Carter and Steyn and Wilkinson and Sexton who all got offered less by the moguls...

Australia 86000.....Ireland 153,000....simples!
