The referee's indecision is final:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3738.gif



our so called premier football comp and its man city 7 norwich 0 - now thats embarrassing

if you're going to make comments about the second round of games at least them run their course first rather than post after 2 games

....but what did you expect from Ireland? '"

Is this the same Ireland who finished 5th last timeout, but look like they will end up as one of the lowest ranked teams in this competition? I dunno, maybe some work building on the 2008 performance done on the domestic game and even dare I say, a couple of actual Irish players in the 24 man squad....I fear for Ireland(sic) against Australia next weekend.....in many ways. It could kill the game or at best set it back 20 years if the Aussies put their foot down!

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif



Welcome to the world according to Saddened. For those not familiar, he's a firm favorite on the Saints board and always looking on the positive, hence his name.

The biggest disappointment for Saddened is that they have still not ordered his golden chair at Saints. I've heard that big Mac is working on it for him.

Manchester City won 7-0 today.

The Premier League is in crisis.

WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg

Tell me gutters
2007 RUWC NZ 108- Portugal 13, Oz 91 - japan 3, SA 64- USA 15
2011 RUWC NZ 79 - Canada 15, Wales 66 - Fiji 0, SA 87-Namibia 0, NZ 83- japan 7

Was rugby union destroyed in those countries? Stop being such a drama queen!

Actually just looking at the pool games in the last two RUWC some of those scores in a game where it is easier to keep games close are a joke.

Quote: Saddened! "Round 1 was sensational. The games were all competitive and there was a real buzz. The organisers had been quite clever with the fixtures and it set the tournament up nicely.

Round 2 is just a complete and utter embarrassment on the field so far. It pulls away the façade and there is very little left to be positive about. The big sides are up to speed and the minnows' enthusiasm wanes.'"

Its a damn shame the big 3 can't slow down a bit instead of the "dick comparisons" going on. Doesn't help the comp. icon_rolleyes.gif

Good stuff, but do we stop there or keep going building momentum? Thats the difference between RL and RU. In RU they have determination to be better.

Difference is there are probably players born in those countries playing for this countries......the IRB ensure funding is available for them and assists with development.........Japan hosted the AB's last night.......when did the roos last play a developing nation?

I was moderating on another international league forum during the last world cup, and we very quickly had to take a zero tolerance policy on union trolls during the world cup, because nothing threatens them more than us being successful at what they consider to be 'their thing' - just saying.
