    Are the kiwis in trouble for the world cup?

    Howabout Vuna on the wing for Perrett? He's been going great at Newcastle this season, particularly the last month.

    Stuart isn't a selector: Love

    Since I am flying over to the World Cup in November, it really annoys me that I would be deprived of seeing any of the top players because Ricky Stuart doesn't like guys going to play in the UK! Spare a thought for the public, Ricky, they pay your wages, and they want to see the best the game...

    international eligibility

    Well, this is the problem. Say Andrew Johns was Tongan, we'd have seen him play internationals twice, 1995 and 2000 world cups. It's all well and good saying players have to play in their country of birth, but that often denies them regular international football, where it is a pacific island...

    The best Overseas Grog/Alcohol

    Can you buy it over in Aus? I'm probably gonna move in the next year or so ... don't know what I will do if I can't drink Tui over there!

    Round 5 (2008) Bluebags v Ninjas

    Progress? The adage that things aren’t as good as they used to be is often quoted by older generation. As the years slide by, the past seems a more attractive option, full of hope and promise. Memories of bad aspects fade, and an inaccurate picture of the past is painted – if not perfect...

    Just watched a replay of...

    Me and my brother were discussing this the other day, and we both concluded that England would have won the final. NZ were extremely lucky to beat tonga in the same tournament, after all. England played well in the 95 final, I thought.

    Just watched a replay of...

    Remember it? That match is the bane of my life ... second only to the 1999 Tri Nations final. 1999 and 2006 Tri Nations finals? Led one with five minutes to go (and had a disallowed try after fulltime), and the other went into extra time. A case could be made for the 2000 World Cup final...

    Roberts Pulled out of test

    I'd have moved Webb to five eighth and Hohaia to fullback. Wouldn't surprise me if they swapped during the match.

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    I think this is the major reason that union in NZ could continue to lose popularity. The three years in between World Cups could see the best players going overseas to make more money, leaving NZ super 14 and the NPC teams (as well as the All Blacks) understrength and lower quality. It seems...

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    It is true that there's a fair few Aussies in the Warriors, but equally true that there are increasing numbers of Kiwis in all the other NRL sides. Enough to support a second NZ NRL team, in my opinion.

    Leeds not Releasing Webb

    Possibly. I suppose the administration that wanted it ended is gone now as well (if it was Chalmers or Lowe who made the decision).

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    They don't have reserve days for any international cricket in NZ anymore, do they? We should just go and burn down the houses of the residents who were complaining, if you ask me. It's the same with music venues in town, you get people in apartments complaining ... why live so close to the city...

    Leeds not Releasing Webb

    Well this is meant to be the final mid-year test between the Kiwis and Aussies, isn't it, so we won't get the chance to see if it would ever happen again.

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    It is deemed that way though, because of people on a nearby hill, I think? Across the other side of the motorway. There are noise limits which I knew about, but I wasn't aware of the night event limits.

    Geez, that's ridiculous! :x

    Wow, I can't believe that the rules have been enforced for once!

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    PS: What is the reason that an NRL team playing out of Westpac Stadium could not play at night, Te Kaha? I asked earlier, but maybe you missed it. Logistically it is easily possible, but are there limits on the amount of night events allowed at the stadium or something? No source required, I...

    Leeds not Releasing Webb

    :shock: This is a huge step by Love's low standards! I'm actually quite proud of him haha. Shame he hasn't been doing this for the last ten years, though.

    Can RL take over from RU in NZ?

    You lot must lead a fascinating life ... "I just head on the radio that Princess Diana has died!" "I don't believe you ... where is your source! I need an internet link! Hearing something on the radio isn't reliable! I wouldn't hire you as my lawer!!!" :lol:
