Aussie Needs Another Super Rugby Team …

Yeah right.
If I had a little bit more time (OK, if I could be stuffed) I’d do a Tui Billboard.
FFS the Aussies barely can handle 4 teams at present – and there has to be real question marks about the credibility of Queensland:
Queensland rugby is teetering on the brink of the abyss as the aftershock [...]

Gone to the Dogs

Got to love this “Get Poor Quick” story (actually embedded in a serious article I should point out) in the Granny Herald altho the original story was in the UK’s Telegraph.
A couple of Pommy punters thought they had the ultimate sting:
The pair, in their 50s, were hoping to scoop a British record breaking greyhound jackpot [...]

Ta ta to Tahu

The Aussies have lost yet another league import, Timana Tahu.
Tahu looks like he’s goining to rejoin the Eels.
So Ta ta Tahu!
Or seeing that Sailor, Tuqiri and Mat Rogers have proven also to be such great successes at union, it’s more like a case of ta ta Tahu too!

More Aussie Sooks

Couldn’t believe my luck (not Micheal whose parents couldn’t spell either).
While I haven’t given up on being ranked #1 in Google for searches on “cheating Aussies” (every little bit of search engine optimisation helps), I’m also making a concerted effort to rank highly for “cry baby Aussies”.
And this priceless gem was in the Sydney Daily [...]

Warriors Take A Punt

Been a while since I’ve posted about pissheads.
I’ve been so bust posting about cheating Aussies and cry baby Aussies.  Let’s hope Google is taking notes.
Anyway, back to the subject of pissheads and the Warriors look like they’re putting their hopes of a half decent half in Brett Seymour.
That’s Brett Seymour – ex Bronco and Shark.  [...]

Ted Takes the Points

The AB’s game against the Aussies was pitched as some type of grudge match between Ted and “Dingo Bob” Deans.
The reality is that the two coaches wouldn’t have given it any thought.
It was a game that the Aussies had for the winning – the George Smith bombed try really told the tale.
Based on opportunities, you [...]

Ponting Takes It Like A Baby

Here I was, earlier in the week,  proposing that I should take the number one Google ranking for “aussie cry babies” when I get such brilliant material out of the Second Ashes test.
Ponting was admittedly given out in a dodgy decision by “Slow Death” Rudi Koertzen.
By the way it was reported in the Sydney Moaning [...]

On the Game(s)

Here’s something different.
A wannabee Olympian wants to fund his way to the Olympic Games through running a brothel.
According to Stuff:
He received a $15,000 “performance enhancement grant” from government sports funding body Sparc for finishing in the top 16 at Beijing, but Taekwondo New Zealand (TNZ) has suspended the funding because Campbell has not been competing.
Funny, [...]

John Daly's Great Strides

There’s something about a train crash played out in front of our own eyes … or at least the camera.
If you’ve ever played golf, then you understand why the guy is still a cult hero.
The bloke drinks, smokes, gambles, loses it all and starts all over again, and again, and again.
Yet he can still smack [...]

Coach Cam

In the good old days, live sport was a luxoury.
I well remember the days when NZ TV (the one channel that there was) would simply have a programming blank which coincidentally coincided with the timing for an All Blacks test match.
At that time, we would happily allow American nuke ships into our harbours but we [...]
