Ok, my own fault for going feral but you wouldn’t think so much would happen in two weeks!
The All Blacks go from champs to chumps (I’ll blog more about this later in the week). Mind you, in the Village of The Damned (Christchurch), the AB’s have been the Planet of the Apes since King Robbie [...]

Perhaps Prof Ted was taking inspiration from my last post and saw the tactical brilliance of losing to the Froggies in between World Cups.
I just wish they hadn’t lost so convincingly.
Frankly, it’s was hommes against boys for a while out there.
We shouldn’t be surprised tho.
It was undoubtedly a weak team ravaged by injuries and it [...]

Apparently, the AB’s aren’t going to be motivated by a sense of revenge at the weekend.
According to Wayne’s world:
“It’s a different (French) team, a different coach. We’ve got a different team, what happened, happened,” Smith said.
“We moved on from that last year.”
Sorry, but the old tried and true methods aren’t working.
We give the Froggies a [...]

Ha … and I thought that the names were on the jerseys so the fans would know who the players are.
I have a suspicion that it’s actually so the players know who their teammates are and what position they’re supposed to be played.
At least that’s what it looks like after the deckchairs on HMS Titanic [...]

… you just score more points than them.
I saw this on Stuff on Sunday morning and laughed my way through my cereal.
Could have been serious. A case of cereal killer if I’d laughed myself to death.
Anyway, here’s what the Aussies thought at half time in their opening T20 game. If you can’t read the small [...]

It’s State of Origin time – you know, mate against mate, state against state, yadda yadda.
And yes., last night’s game had plenty of controversy, lots of excitement, some great tries, and the possibility of a photo finish.
And all to prove that Australia is the second best rugby league nation in the world
From a [...]

I couldn’t resist the following courtesy of an email …
2007 – Chinese year of the Chicken – Bird Flu devastates parts of Asia
2008 – Chinese year of the Horse – Equine Influenza decimates Australian racing
2009 – Chinese year of the Pig – Swine Flu strikes
It gets worse – next year:
2010 – Chinese year of the [...]

… and I’m not talking about the Warriors either.
A lot has happened in the last week or so and you’d be forgiven for thinking strange things had indeed happened had you been living in a cave for ten years (or somewhere similar like Winton) and then emerged to find the Chiefs in the Super final.
