2 -2 was a much better outcome than I feared. Especially after the lopsided scorecard in the first full game of the series. Nicely done.

I watched LIV golf on the telly for the first time just now. Could only stomach it for a couple of minutes. Is it normal to have loud music and announcements while the players are teeing off. It reminded me of the darts.

I think that is part of their schtick

Not my cup of tea.

The simple way to prove Boks also hold the 'unofficial world title' The simple way to prove Boks also hold the 'unofficial world title'

Two weeks ago, a Kiwi colleague with a penchant for riling South Africans put together a piece on rugby’s “unofficial world titles”...

Managed to bag another reasonably major press piece. This time one owned by World Rugby

Falcons are an embarrassment of a franchise. Just egregious behavior.

This comes days after they were crowing that Bill Bellichick didn't make their top 3 coaching finalists

What a clown show.

Thanks for reviving this thread

Had a great afternoon in Cardiff watching Wales lose to France. Scoreline did not reflect the match.

Some very good skills on show. Also some abject ordinariness.

club rugby has started again so all good with the world, we yelled and screamed at the ref...we bemoaned lost opportunities due to skill level...but end the end got to spend the day standing in the sun with mates and then had a few beers with the guys we were calling names not long before

I won't start a new thread but Thames Valley and King Country will be playing in the curtain-raiser for the Chiefs-Hurricanes game in May.

Chiefs Country teams to play curtain raiser at FMG Stadium Waikato Chiefs Country teams to play curtain raiser at FMG Stadium Waikato

Chiefs Country provincial unions of Thames Valley and King Country will face off at FMG Stadium Waikato on the 24th of May in a curtain raiser to the Gallagher Chiefs clash against the Hurricanes.

George had his best result in quite a while in the Giro d'Abruzzo - coming in 3rd in the GC, 2nd in the KotM, and 2nd in the final stage.

Solid throughout.

Behind Lutsenko and Sivakov, but ahead of Adam Yates, Ulissi, Pozzivivo and a few other decent names...and everyone else.

@Donsteppa Slater is a serial offender in this regard.

I read his biography (or autobiography) years ago. He's got some mental health issues that partially derailed his playing career.

@antipodean Utah has recently approved a sales tax increase to contribute up to $900 million for a new arena or a remodeled arena for the NHL team/Utah Jazz. The Owner of the NHL team is the same guy who owns the Utah Jazz.

@Winger Was listening to him doing the comments during the radio commentary of one of the Hurricanes games earlier this year. Very insightful and astute in both his description and reasoning behind what had just happened and why along with predicting, accurately in a lot of cases, what was going to happen from a restart in play. Gave reasons why as well and was well worth listening too. Hopefully he will be in the chair tonight.

@KiwiMurph financial advisors and banks will be sweating

really feel like NZR are on a different planet, all the fluffy content "work" in other sports on the back of competitive and popular sports with engaged fan bases.... not independent of those things

@Winger and im sure they'll find dunedin or invercargill a bit chilly...home advantage

I could understand an annual playoff between the Super and European Champions. I think they'd be interest in that but not really for this longer World Club tournament.

I would think Gibbes will select a squad for the RC and then another for the WC. I'll be interested to see if the three NZ sevens players (Vai, Spencer, Tito-Harris) are involved in the latter.

Like the post above I wonder how long it will be before this one turns to custard.
