Rugby - Advantage Over!

120 plus miles away Caligastia - unfortunately. Shame I didn't know earlier - might have been able to sort something out.

Better? Maybe. Good? Not really. I don’t think the coalface will dominate proceedings Saturday.

It might come down to duelling backlines, but it's the cleanouts and general support that's going to be crucial, and our lot have been sadly lacking that department. Actually, I'm rather looking forward to Finegan's appearance after halftime. He's rather fond of Bledisloe Cup matches. Just don't do a J****, Owen!

With the distinction in his coaching career of matching Michael Foley’s level of achievement as well.

Cop that, Zinzan!

What you came across here was that you committed the cardinal sin – you crossed from one coast to t’other and I very much doubt either Chester folk or North Yorks types could believe anyone would want to spend time in the other place? Complex regional politics here – but you’ll be excused normally on account of being Aussie.

Yes, I was watching a doco on the Wars of the Roses the other night. Nothing's changed.

Heavens, a lifetime in the English context.

A distance most Americans would be happy to go to get a taco.

Oh, and is it just me, or has this site been down more than it's been up recently? Particularly after their downtime for "maintenance" the other day?

It goes down more than the cheapest whore in Las Vegas.

From a very early age, too.

Gee, someone else has finally climbed on the J****-bashing bandwagon.

Can't wait for the game this weekend, it'll be the last one I get to see before heading off to London, England for a week.

I don't suppose you will be anywhere near there next week Havak? I know you live a fair distance away...

Hehehehe... poor you

I went there about a month ago... make sure there are no English sporting events on at the time you arrive. The following may happen when you arrive:

1) BAA will be so thoroughly engrossed in a sporting event (even something a spurious as lawn bowls) and you will be in baggage reclaim for 4 hours whilst they finish this enthralling battle.

2) BAA will "lose" your bags and will pretend to search for the "lost" bags. In truth, they actually have your bag but are trying to cover up the fact they are watching the bowls.

3) Make sure you have a foreign passport. The 2 queues for the British queue are MUCH longer than the 40-odd for foreign visitors.

4) Experiance dictates you should NEVER ask a London cabbie to take you from Heathrow to the City. You'll be ripped off. Soo if you can find a friend, a proper cabbie (as opposed to the tourist attractions), or if worst comes to worst, take the Underground.

Have fun!

By far the quickest and cheapest option providing you're not lugging a million ports. Ports. Now there's a Queensland word for you. Never hear it anywhere else in the country. Just thought I'd throw it in.

Gee, you leave me for dead for perversity, Frozzy.

I can't stand it. The trains are damp and dingy, the stations smell of p*ss, and it's impossible to go the day without some loser injecting some drugs into their bloodstream. Even the All Black dressing room after the England loss wasn't as depressing a sight.

About as spurious as the next one too, I'll bet

Also, key " javascript:who(89769) " into the address bar when in the main Off-Topic forum page. As you'll see finbar loves the spam

Yes, but it's a lot closer to the real world than we are.

I was trying to educate you, you peasant!

You obviously have too much time on your hands, too.

If the Australians lose the game this weekend, I promise to use ports in every post I make in this thread for a week.

That'll teach the Aussie to try and teach me

Sounds a bit like you know what it means, which doesn't speak well for you, Frozzy. To my mind, it's sort of up there with that classic Kiwi expression-for-all-occasions: "Good as gold".

"How are you?" "Good as gold"

"Nick off, hairy legs!" "Good as gold"

"Tell me, how do you split an atom?" "Good as gold"
