That's if he can fit rugby into his hectic lifestyle.
Have fun ogling. Hands where we can see them. |

Any reliable compass would indicate...
1) The South Stand is the South by West (SbW) Stand.
2) The North Stand is the North by East (NbE) Stand.
3) The Western Terrace is the West by North (WbN) Terrace.
4) The Carnegie Stand is East by South (EbS)
Anyone stood watching the game in the South by West Stand would have to turn 11.25 degrees west in order to be stood south and be north facing.

I'm pretty sure you'll be able to see his wallet from there |

Absolutely disgraceful that a world class player should be filling his wallet via his hectic lifestyle.
I look forward to occupying the SbW Stand for the NZ v PNG fixture. Haven't stood in there for years and not since all the ts have occupied it.
Thankfully, they won't be around in huge numbers during the RLWC because it doesn't form part of their t season ticket.

It should be fantastic opportunity to see such a great Rugby Union player making a short but brief appearance in a few games playing for his second love |

Yep, it is a fantastic and rare opportunity which presents itself, so I'll be there in attendance to see a genuine world class player in action 
For those not used to seeing genuine world class players in action who might find such an experience unfamiliar and intimidating, there's always England V Ireland at Huddersfield instead.
Enjoy. |

This was precisely the sort of reply I was looking for - isn't it great when we have wonderful informative replies like this that really add to the discussion.
Also, a quick note for those at the latter end of the thread, let's keep this on topic, please. |

Shouldn't the North Stand be the South/North stand due to the cricket ground side?

Those that are under you on the Carnegie Terrace, are they understanding? |

Have they named the stand (possibly the redevloped one) after him in anticipation? I will look down on you from the Carnegie with a bit of luck. |

Hopefully those drooling over SBW from the SbW stand won't be hard standing.

Can't wait until, after 2 wins from 2, NZ decide to rest SBW for the final group game.

Given there is a variation of just over three degrees from mag north to true north in an easterly direction your calculations comparing a point on one and a point on the other are an attempt to convince us that the distance between those two points is bigger than it actually is. Not unusual though that is it?
Mag to Grid get rid and all that. |
