My wife has a double barreled first name and it's amazing how few people know what a "hyphen" is when she tries to spell it out.
My wife reverted to her maiden name because a hyphen appeared too difficult for people.

People used to mispronounce my names all the time while growing up. I corrected them and then moved on with the rest of my life.
Easier for you than the bloke I once worked with - he was called Dipthik Shidpour (and no, I'm not making that up)

I remember this guy having a sensational game against Australia a few years ago, and then disappearing from the scene. He has been recalled for the AB test.
I hope he goes well, sounds like he's had an awful last few years.
Montero Added to Pumas Roster - Americas Rugby News
Manuel Montero has been added to the Pumas roster to face New Zealand. Argentina will play host to the no 1 team in the world this coming Saturday in Buenos Aires.

@kirwan more than us right now...although he looks more like a loose forward

Bidwell almost seems to be suggesting that we field our weakest possible team to see how we get on.
The genie that isn't out of the bottle is never having lost to Argentina - and that's not one that can be put back in once it's happened.
Look at the Irish - they're fancying themselves to knock us over later this year and in Japan if it comes to it.

What I find utter bollox is his assertion that "It now wouldn't be a disaster to see the All Blacks lose to Argentina on Sunday (NZ time). Rugby's world order wouldn't suddenly change and no-one would assume New Zealand is on the slide." Utter rubbish because one loss is acceptable, just, but two in a row or two vs the same team in one year would be the end of the world. Every one would assume the ABs are on the slide of the ABs lost like that. And they're be right because it is not something we have done for ages. Just bizarre to think otherwise, and to lose to Argentina would be utterly unacceptable to the rugby public. Especially straight after a dire show of moronic rugby vs the boks (as much as enjoyed the match, No way I can go back and watch it again without throwing my teddies out)
Journalist are tits.

Of course the journos would love to see the ABs lose because it gives them a more interesting story to write for Monday morning.
