I can see now why the guys on the various Rugby segments on radio 4TAB kept saying throughout the week that the $2-50 on offer for the Blues to beat the Tahs was "the sports bet of the week"!

I'm happy to report that whilst Sam Carter failed a 'concussion test' when he went off, (at around the 15 minute mark), by the end of the match he had passed that test! Sam is now in what is called a "process of return to play", and the next decision on his condition/welfare, will be made on...

The 'old forum' suits this 'old bloke', Sully!!

Thanks Sully. Well done to both of them. BTW, I just noticed that the usual information down the RHS is missing! Such things as who is on-site, who is moderating, forum details: member numbers, post numbers, tweets, and sundry other items relevant to G&GR forum, including ads!

I haven't been active on the forum for a while, so this may have been raised previously: To GAGR, the Moderators, the Administrators, or whoever was responsible for the return to the 'full-living colour' format on this forum, thank you. Great to click-on this morning, and see all the pictorial...

Oh to be back in the 80s, when life was simpler, and people were allowed to be more honest!. The committee member who had the responsibilty for inserting the ads in our local newspaper, promoting the home-matches for our country-town based club often used the line: "Hey fellas, come out to the...

You are correct, Dctarget, however, I'm sure there are many members who aren't aware of the difference. I only found out recently that our Daughter's English Fiancee, is in fact her Fiance!! After making a couple of minor mistakes in my last post, can any of the Mods please tell me why there is...

Thank you Scrubber. My inclusion of the word 'femal'e was because ever since the announcement of the result of the SSM Survey, on Wednesday morning, every engaged couple which I have seen interviewed on television has been a same-sex couple, and I didn't wish to create any confusion over Sam's...

kiap, considering the fact that he was in a Bunnings store in our National capital today, I think that's highly unlikely. He's busy doing a few maintenance jobs for his new (female) fiancee!!

Realistically, KOB, Sam's chances of getting back in the Wallabies 23 are limited, barring multiple injuries, and none of us would want that to happen. I do however, have to say that the smile on Sam's face after he scored a try for the Barbarians against the All Blacks at Twickenham, on...

A necessary, and encouraging win for the men in gold!

Good to see that Taqele Naiyaravoro and Nic Stirzaker have joined Sam Carter in Robbie Deans' Barbarians squad.

I didn't say that he did. In Sam's early years, conversations between Robbie Deans, Carter family members, and friends of Sam's, were enough to reveal Robbie's high opinion of Sam, and his reasons for not including Sam in his squad. Those reasons were in relation to his (then) light weight, and...

The Barbarians tour continues for Sam Carter, as he flies to England to join Robbie Deans' Barbarians to Play The All Blacks this weekend. Robbie Deans always did have a higher opinion of Sam than Michael Cheika ever has!!........................ Go Sam!!!

Maybe replays at 8:00 am on the Sunday following each game, on ONE?!

Agreed, BR, however, plenty of Kiwis are teaching at our schools. Well there are, here on the Gold Coast!!

Can only assume the ref is a sports master from a nearby school. Perhaps his name is either Pulver, or Clyne, however, what is clear, is that he is well out of his depth here.

Mrs Doug and I really enjoyed that match also. I'm so sorry that RugbyReg doesn't like the concept or the team make-up. Maybe Reg has never been exposed to 'fair dinkum, grass roots country Rugby'! (His loss)! Fantastic 'spirit', no kicking, no animosity, and plenty of power-running!! If only...

Thanks BH, got it now!

I assume Rugby.com.au is a 'subscribe only' live service?!
