| Quote: MjM "To be honest, whilst there is plenty of validity in asking McBanana questions on his team selection, the preponderance of s and simpletons within the RL press corps is unsettling. If I was faced with a barrage of the usual clueless questions from the likes of Chris Irvine, Peter Smith and Danny Lockwood I'd probably head for the exit too.'"
Can't blame the press for asking him about it, but once it was clear he wasn't going to talk about it and they tried rewording the question a few times hoping for a different result then they deserved to be walked out on. Seen it before in sport press conferences, they just repeat same unanswered question pointlessly and wasting everyone's time doing so. |

When he storms out next week, he'll need to up the ante.
I suggest he knocks himself out unconscious by slamming his head against the locked door on his way out.
That should create a few more media headlines. |

Why don't you try it first and let us know how it goes.  |

Hang on, a dear friend of all of us has already tried. Have you not seen the video of Damo hitting himself with a brick?

not many mentions of the WC on Talksport this week whenever i've listened, save for items on the main sports news, they seem to think the big event of the weekend is southampton v fulham in the prem

BBC Wales had a half hour programme tonight at 9pm and a few mentions during the Ospreys v Dragons game on S4C.

Just seen Martin Offiah being interviewed on the BBC. Did ok and mentioned that the games were selling really well. The reporter, instead of saying how a 50,000 plus crowd is expected said "there will be about 20,000 empty seats here today... Not sure if other matches will sell out, if any of them."
Talk about negativity, and after such a positive week from the Beeb.

I work overseas, albeit for a British organisation.
Few people seem to be aware the tournament is on.
Those who know of it perceive it as a 2 team tournament between Aus and NZ and think we will have trouble filling stadiums.

That's a terrible line from the reporter. If it were 50,000 empty seats, fair enough. Haven't we already got 1 sell out and the final expected to do so? Poor, poor, poor. Who was it? |

Bit of a piece on breakfast TV this morning, one in the studio and one in the stadium. Robbie Paul at the stadium laughed at the discipline questions didn,t sulk and walk away.
Looking forward to the half hour build up before the kick off.
