Once a FNG, always a FNG. It's a glorious status because ignorance is bliss.

Well Cobber, I have been on these American boards for eight years now and have never been called a Limey, so being called a POM just seemed strange, but never mind Ray are you watching the Rugby Union match on the weekend [England v Australia]? Our rugby league season has ended for now, so I only have the Union game to watch. Rub it in, Ian, why don't you!
Hmmm. Fox Sports called the game the "dance of the desperate."
It seems our glory years of being runners-up to the All Blacks may be past - temporarily at least. One local wag suggested that it was because all of our local talent is overseas (BTW, who is England's coach?) Of course, the Kiwis don't seem to have done all that well against …. IRELAND? Anyway, enjoy your game! I looked in my empty wallet, so bets are off.
Now that you've piqued my interest, I may find meself at a local come 1 PM Sunday for a change.
And, come on now, footie (you know, the real one) is in full swing! If you miss watching all the Aussies playing Super League, you can flick on your telly and watch #10 at Huddersfield Town (now if only they could win a game or two).
Blessings,
Ray

Ian, Heck, if I knew you missed being called a Limey, I would have done it. I guess I could take a page from another board and be my irreverent self "It is what it is". But I got to watch it here as some get run from the board for their mouth. Maybe your bud from the Emerald Isle across that narrow sea would pile on.
Regards, Tom

That was an interesting blocking tackle by Farrell at 1:45 in the vid. Changed the game. Some you win...... Men playing with odd shaped balls. The truly interesting form is Ireland's who seem to have left hit the missus game form behind. I hope they have peaked early. Truly unfortunate for the World Cup group playing at Fukushima next year and the Olympics in 2020. I can only say that Japan is run by nut jobs. Rugby Union World Cup and Olypics in the middle of a nuclear fallout zone. Outstanding - Just keep glowing. Another great tackle Here at 2:30:00 (Yup - full game) enjoy.

Hi HR, I watched that game live and what a game it was. The town where I live is a rugby league strong hold. We don't really have a foot ball team and our rugby union sect is very small. Hail the Widnes Vikings!
