Seems you are the only person laughing... special needs people often do laugh at anything... it makes sense really.
Nothing you post makes sense Te:
SANZAR ltd is NOT "made up" of its combined unions... those unions have equal shares in SANZAR Ltd
See.

Really??? since its one word it doesnt seem to say that at all...but then being special needs im sure lots of things appear to be something other than what they are..
You’d only just noticed the missing r, ey, pmpl. Still, makes it easier for you to read, I expect.

And since you have given up the "fight" i can only assume you now agree that the name of the game is "Rugby
The name of the game is rugby union, least thats what the rfu call it. Unless you’re in the SH in which case its ugby.

and that you are posting in a vain attempt to validate your worth in your mind... and such a special mind it is...
Gosh! Te's been to the library. Well done you!

You do know what inverted commas mean dont you? i know you have serious comprehension issues but still.

If it was deliberate your deflection skills would be outstanding... but since its because you aint to smart its just sad.

No its what you call it... Since you cant find any evidence of the IRB, you know the ruling body, changing the name of the game in their constitution to "Rugby Union" it just shows you are talking sh*t... a you always do.

Unless you’re in the SH in which case its ugby.

Only to a moron such as yourself.. you do know what a capital R signifies dont you... actually you probably dont... your reading level isnt that high.

You need new material... you cant explain why the IRB hasnt changed the name of the game to "rugby union" when you are sure thats what they think the name is... until you do... your posts are just so much drivel

And it is also called, Rugby Super League.

Of course it is.. its a stupid argument in a stupid thread... nothing in this thread is going to make anybody change what they think.

I sure do bud. Whats your issue with them? Loving your use of ellipses btw.

Not deflection, but piss taking.
Thanks for playing tho.

No its what you call it...
Me, the irb, the rfu the media. Even this forum. Yea, everyone's wrong but you Te.

Ive never claimed they have. The name rugby union has been used to refer to rugby union since at least 1888.
No need to change what already exists.

Only to a moron such as yourself.. you do know what a capital R signifies dont you... actually you probably dont... your reading level isnt that high.
I sure do bud, but I'll sure sleep better knowing you are aware of capital Letters.
Well done you!

Again, the use of the name rugby union predates the 1890 irFb who, like their ancestor organisation in 1885, called the name of their game: Football, but used the name rugby union and rugby union football to distinguish it from other codes of Rugby.

A convention which continues, happily, to this day.

Which translates into... blah blah blah blah... 1871..... blah blah blah... rugby football... blah blah blah.. the IRB prefers to call the game Rugby Union... blah blah blah blah... no i dont know why they havent changed the name to Rugby union even tho they prefer it as the name...

The simple irrefutable, indisputable, incontrovertible, undeniable truth is... that the IRB define the game as "rugby football played in accordance with the Laws of the Game" so that is what the name of their game is, NOT "Rugby Union"... anything else is you blowing sh*t out of your mouth.

I did however, state that the irFb was formed in 1885, when it was actually 1886 with the first meeting in 1887.

Im surprised you didnt pick up on it Te.

If you'd bothered yourself to read the post Te, you would know I didnt put the year 1871 in there.

Do you ever stop lying???? i quoted EXACTLY what you wrote... see its inbetween the "Quotes"... just because you changed it later doesnt make it the truth... Oh by the way i can read both your original post AND your amended one... you arent doing what little credibility you have left by lying... again.

We posted simultaneously(hint: the edits are timed Mr Mod), but as ever, you got there late.

I was late? it was you who wasnt quick enough to change his lies...

Here's a thought... dont lie.. then you wont need to change it when you are caught out.

I pressed the save edit button at the same time as you, which means that I had caught and put right my error within 5mins of the original post.

Ahhhh i see... claiming your lies as "errors"... thats a REALLY good save there... well done you.... pity you make so many "errors"...

Now to get the thread back on track...

The simple irrefutable, indisputable, incontrovertible, undeniable truth is... that the IRB define the game as "rugby football played in accordance with the Laws of the Game" so that is what the name of their game is, NOT "Rugby Union"... anything else is you blowing sh*t out of your mouth.

WOW!!! what a comeback... quoting my own post back at me... i think those special needs teachers of yours left a gap in your debating education.

Lets see if you address the point now... or just deflect... your favorite "debating" "skill"

Trouble is Te, you've already stated that rugby football is a generic name for the handling codes.

Thats prolly why the rugby union committee of the rfu referred to Football and Football clubs.
After all, the body who decides the rules, are sure to get the name of the game right, ey.

The rugby union committee of the irFb referred to rugby union Football and Rugby union.

Everyone is wrong 'cept you Te.

I thought unionites were big on history.
