Wallabies v Springboks
-
@paekakboyz she's a Kiwi, so I assume it was deliberate, targeted, and she escaped sanction

Here's where I'm at with rugby right now: wife had proposed a movie night (ala Bled1) and I in no way object.
Someone asked if I was going to Concord this afternoon to watch the NRC. I informed them that cutting Western Sydney Rams basically shat on the enjoyment of the NRC for me, and the Sydney Rays aren't my team so why bother?
Now there will be those who ask how rugby is going to continue if I'm not going to put in my hard-earned time and money to help out.
To them I say: go run an actual grassroots club instead of just paying lip service to the game by fronting up at kickoff and pissing off at or before full time.
THEN you can criticise me. Not before.
Go Wallabies. Whoever you are.

I’m was getting that way with the last six or so years with the Blues. I decided to take a stronger interest in Auckland this year to try and get some enjoyment back in what is essentially an entertainment hobby right?
It’s a shame the NRC is losing your interest too, that’s the part of rugby that needs support from fans like you. That’s the path to getting rugby strong again in Aussie.

@kirwan thats why I love coaching my boys team, where they still play for the fun and you can teach them about winning and losing gracefully and as they get older and start to 'get it' and knowing you have helped some of these boys along thier path (some are naturals and could have made it with someone like mn5 coaching) and the others who just love it even if they arent that good but are part of the team.

And its not even about the winning or losing - though the winning helps, I will say.
Its about the utter lack of connection. Having run my little club for a couple of years straight, I've come to realise NSWRU give negative fucks about people at our level. There is so much gatekeeping and ring-fencing in Sydney rugby alone, it would amaze most.
ONE development office for the whole of Western Sydney, and they're too busy coaching another team most times to do anything. No presence in schools unless local clubs organise it. No traction against the other codes.
It is appalling.

"The 2 best teams in the rugby championship, (South Africa 1st and Australia 2nd) in what will surely be a titanic struggle for world rugby dominance." Said Mark Keohane to no one at all..

I wish you'd post more just like in the glory days raz....loving your work as usual.

Having said that for some reason it iccurred to me recently that we hadn't heard any of Keohane's batshit crazy shit stirring for a few years. Makes me feel all nostalgic.
Anyone been on his forum recently?
@booboo I read his twitter and try to get most of his columns.
He’s passionate and loves his Boks. I respect that. He’s always talked them and the SA teams up, although I think he’s not always honest in his opinion. Gets sick of hearing from all other SA pundits about how they are going to lose and woe in SA, so talks positive.

Keohane is better than Twattue.

So are boils, what’s your point?

Third minute and Wallabies already score converted try against the Springboks.

That he could write shit, but at least he supports his team.

Faf De Klerk having a great game so far. Wallabies getting outmuscled so far.
