Envy is an admission of inferiority.
The deepest definition of youth is life as yet untouched by tragedy.:46141.jpg |
|
| I once asked the coaches of the English Rugby Union and Rugby League sides if they had a particular strategy for deciding which players were more suited to being in the forwards or the backs. they both agreed , when we get them we make them run around in a forest. The ones who run in to the trees, we make into forwards. The ones who run around the trees are backs..........VERY typical.  |

Don't worry about avoiding temptation.
As you grow older, it will avoid you!

The fact that you actually believe the joke shows what sort of of Wally you are. I guess at the time you were in your sunday best - bush hat with hanging corks and crumpled khaki shorts holding an opened tinny. Classy!

It's funny because I was talking to the Australian Rugby League coach and he told me how they decide on positions for players over in the Southern Hemisphere:
Deficating in a corridor = Prop forward (Nate Myles)
Urinating in Public or on a member of the public = Second Row or the halves (Willie Mason, Cooper Cronk, Brett Finch, Todd Carney)
Fighting = halves (Tim Smith)
Stumbling round drunk half naked in a hotel corridor = Coach (Brad Fittler)
Alleged assaults against women = Could play anywhere but by showing such an interest in their country's tradition and heritage almost certainly means they have the class to represent their country (Greg Bird, Greg Inglis, Brett Stewart, Darius Boyd, Karmichael Hunt, Sam Thaiday, Dane Laurie, Joel Thomson, Jake Friend)
If you want to post stupid comments, there is always actual facts that make Australians look more stupid than their English counterparts. Now give it a rest, it's STUPID, I wish I wasn't so fed up with Aussies coming on here having a go at the English and could treat it with the contempt it deserved by not replying at all. Let's put it to rest and start talking about Rugby League, I know it's the off season but surely having a go at each others' countries and players really doesn't help anyone.

I think we lost 9-8 to the Scots,but I'm pleased to say we beat both England and Wales quite comfortably,and drew with Ireland,or rather Ireland drew with Australia |

Actually the game was much better to watch than the England v Aust game,just spoiled by Giteaus first ever off-day at goal kicking. |

Even Argentina could beat Scotland.
Another wonderful advert for rah rah. Zilch tries.

You clearly aren't worth engaging in debate on rugby league issues. |
