"I mean, a Sydney suburban slug-fest between two teams situated 25 kilometres apart was fine, and the skills of the likes of Nathan Cleary a wonder to behold, but after the international grandeur and wild flowing mercury of the Boks-Wallabies match, didn’t the NRL feel ever so slightly ... suburban and staccato."

Its hard to comprehend how much of wanker someone has to be to write this drivel.

Omg I agree with the idiot

In some cases, dropping the name was ridiculous - like ACT Brumbies dropping ACT.... but for the teams over here in New Zealand, the geographical names for Super Rugby teams were inadequate - the "Auckland Blues" region currently includes Northland, the "Canterbury Crusaders" region includes Tasman (Nelsin/Malborough), Mid Canterbury, South Canterbury, West Coast & Buller.. and the "Wellington Hurricanes" region includes (deep breath) Wellington, Horowhenua-Kapiti, Wairarapa-Bush, Hawkes Bay, Manawatu & Wanganui.

You just can't easily come up with a geographical identifier for the NZ Super Rugby regions, because those identifiers JUST DON'T EXIST - unless you want to rattle off all the provinces that compose those regions.

Don't tell him the roosters which represent the area in which he resides is far bigger now since they changed their name..
He's ripping into them today as well for coming to the conclusion that claims of racist remarks against Tedesco were unsubstantiated.


To those blocked by the SMH paywall, this is the finding of Judge Fitz:

I don’t know the ins and outs of the Tedesco saga, whether he did or didn’t do it.

I will say, prima facie, I can see no reason why the woman in question and her sister, who backs her up, would fabricate the whole thing. And I reckon Tedesco’s explanation – that he was just chatting lightly about the Korean series with his mates, she overhead it, and thought it directed at her – highly unlikely.


That's it. In an environment where players are being sanctioned and fined for being in a photo with a broken trophy, lets hang someone out to dry, one of the game's best players in fact, because Fitzsimons can't think of a reason why a woman would complain. I can think of several but then I haven't had my head bashed about for years in a rugger scrum.
