Re: Tri Nations Thread

Seriously, there's no other team in the top 10 who would keep de Villiers as head coach. Yeah, who'd want a coach who'd won a u-21 world cup, a nations cup, a tri nations and a Lions series I'm afraid it's a case of lies, damn lies and statistics in my opinion, Dave – but if you want to keep on bel...

Re: Ireland vs New Zealand

Neither are ethnically Asian though. The issue is getting people from the asian community into rugby outside of actual asian countries. I can't think (and not getting into race issues here) and any fully ethnically asian players coming through in major rugby countries. The Underwoods and Gareth Del...

Re: Ireland vs New Zealand

All nations make use of players not from their country. Riki Flutey is a good example. Shontane Happe, Lesley Vainikolo, just to pick on guys from out your way who played for England alone. Why is Isa called Bubs btw? And can I call you a Jaffa? :P :twisted: Not quite the point I was driving at, I ...

Re: Ireland vs NZ Maori

Wow, was expecting the Maori boys to destroy your boys tonight, but I think the better team lost really. Just some bad luck and silly errors cost them. The young first five looks good too.

Wish Ireland had played like this last week.

Re: Ireland vs New Zealand

Just came to check up on how bubs is doing, and saw this poaching cr@p again. We(islanders) came to this country for a better life, and not for Rugby. Sure at first we weren't exactly thrown out the red carpet, but we've contributed to it, and also been given a lot from it as well. Education, jobs g...

Re: Nacewa set to join Leinster - Confirmed

Just looked at your teams squad and whilst your hometown talent is really good[I'll be honest I only know O'Drisscoll and a couple others ring a bell], I can understand why you'd be cautious, because those imports you have are really stale(WTF Whittaker? thought he retired eons ago!). I guess if you...

Re: Nacewa set to join Leinster - Confirmed

Just heard the news today and as a Blues fan I'm shattered. Came to have a look at you lucky sob's and how happy you'd be, seeing as I'll be following Leinster as I'm a big fan of this guy. However reading this thread is unbelievable. Flakey under pressure? Bench warmer? It's like you lot found a wi...
