    Hell this has been one loooooooong week. Can we have some bloomin' rugby already!

    Sort of makes me think it would have been nice to have a plate competition running to fill the gap mid-week.
    I have no idea whether that's a good or bad concept for anyone else, but at least i'd have something to watch and talk about.

    I've loved the idea of a Plate competition since 1987.

    It's more rugby for teams that generally don't get much test footy.

    Be hard to get up for for teams like Argentina, Fiji, Scotland (even Italy ... But not in 2019) who had designs on the main draw, but still a worthwhile exercise IMO.

    Loved pool weeks, weened off in finals week, then in 10 days, we will have no rugby...WTF!!

    As an aside, a multi on England/Wales final is over $10 at TAB...less than $2 for a NZ/SA multi

    At least you have cricket, I've got nothing until the Super comp starts again.

    @mariner4life I record and avoid during the day, not hard during reg season. Much harder during playoffs and finals when every cnt suddenly becomes an expert and fan
