It's not the Poms who are whinging this time. (Rugby)

When England lose (as is usual) to NZ or Australia - they whine. NZ and Australia are not suprised, after all, it's the English.

When England win (it had to happen eventually) against NZ or Australia - they whine that we are not happy to be beaten, and once again, we are not suprised.

Stop whining about my incredible powers. You need to be more sportsmanlike.

You conding this rebel thread Caligastia?

Quality posting by the way - nice to see you sense of humour shining through.

Does it suprise me Iain dislikes rugby. Not really. Wish he would give it a chance though - it's a game that once it grabs you never lets go.

Why doesn't it surprise you?

Sorry, I missed that, was just off getting stitches where someone rucked my head.

Hey, I had to take the opportunity to goad English supporters when it presented itself...you're so used to our jabs...these guys are fresh meat.

I never came into the rugby threads before because they were always on like 400 posts and I couldn't be bothered to read them all, then I realised I didn't need to bother reading them all.

Yeah. That's true as well.

I never saw field games as being of great interest to you. Just my probably flawed impression of a career focused young UG.

Yeah but I would like to see the guys jab back with the heavy weight ones – like two wins in a row for us over you, three over the Wallabies (four after tomorrow I hope). Oh and the fact the ABs have not beaten us since 1999.

Yeah. That's true as well.

That’s mainly because it is a series of detailed exchanges requiring blow by blow point making. And as the only regular English contributor I had a huge corner to fight.

Heh. I've always followed football and cricket though I gave up playing to any meaningful level years ago. Still technically a county-level racquet sports player though.

And don't forget the table-tennis.

Just ignore all the bits you don't like and focus on one point. It's much more annoying for the person you are arguing against. If they say anything funny or clever, pretend you never read it.

F******* and S***** are banned words in Rugby threads, the penguins are only playing a heavily corrupted and depraved offspring of the game of Rugby.

Cricket is tolerated though you will seldom see any comment from me about this strange game.

I have just one thing to say:

Go, England! Stomp them!
