Re: GI has a suspected fractured jaw

Why is anyone surprised at Barrett's late, cheap shot.

The guy is a grub, is coached by a bigger grub and you just have to look at the tackles by Lyon, Barrett, Paul Gallen on Slater, Falou, GI in the first half we are lucky that we only had one injured.

Re: Greg Bird charged with glassing his girlfriend

8 months.....

Now I'm not saying this is harsh in any way shape or form, but looking at other 'glassings' that have taken place in NSW haven't got anything like this, they should have, but haven't and with more evidence.

Re: Should we have the Victorian Super 15 Rugby team?

After being there on Saturday night can not see Melbourne getting a team now. Forget the reported 20,000 at the game, you could have fit everyone, including the corporate and medallion club on level 2 on level 1. If people aren't going to go (consider that AFL split round) for the only match of the ...

Re: VERY LIMITED edition Backpack

It's hard to notice in any photo I have taken...... you need to see the bag live, it is hard to spot even then.

In fact, even those with the bag didn't notice until it was pointed out to them some 5 months down the track :)

Temi, has it ever worked ;)

He seems to think he's already playing that other code where you can't hold onto the ball.

Re: Bunnies v Storm,(swine flu hysteria not withstanding) *spoilers*

Why is it every couple of weeks we drop our 3 - 4 up in a tackle? I'll be glad to see a few of the guys dropped and dropped very quickly...... Chambers, Quinn and now the new Tooltain (Tomane) I'd also like to see Matt Cross get a lot more game time, I think he could easliery become the standard of ...

Re: Bunnies v Storm,(swine flu hysteria not withstanding)

It also wasn't the NRL, but SOUTHS that wanted the game in Perth, where it isn't a foreign market.....

Crowd figures for games that have been played over there have been good, even ones that have been played on a suburban paddock due to the AFL threating to sue ground management back in 99

Re: VERY LIMITED edition Backpack

Ice, from the offers I have had on mine, including from RF I'd say no, but get in touch with Rugby Fever just in case.

Also for anyone that was lucky enough to pick one up.....have a good look at the bag and see if you can spot something very different to what we are use too.
