Ditto prefer watching these days (hurts way to much being tackled these days) but do get to kick the Ball around the park with the GrandKids & Youngest from time to time. Occasionally (not often) I find some old form & surprise myself. Youngest is now into basketball & would rather shoot hoops. Such is life.

YeastyBoy Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 RWC 2019 France is gone. Out played 20 : 19. The Welshman showed how to played Rugby when a win seemed lost at half time. Wales ground them down from sheer persistence & stamina. Best game so far in the RWC. YB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyBrew2 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 Mate come off it. France were by far the better team. Silly red card changed it and the deciding try was from a forward strip. No idea how the ref gave it. It’s all moot anyway as the AB’s are gonna walk away with this tournament. No one comes close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Baron Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Sydney FC were s)$t tonight. They were outplayed by one of the favourites for the wooden spoon. They better improve next week or the Sydney Scum will beat them. I have the Sydney Scum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one comes close Wrong that elbow in the face after a stranglehold around the neck was deliberate. Red card was the correct outcome. Ok the last try was a hard call but the Welsh were on the offensive and played better than France in my book. Believe right result for this match. Great game. You know I back the Blacks so being underplaying the AB results. Not a given until the ump blows the whistle. Looking forward to the semifinals.

PaddyBrew2 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 I meant silly as in needless. They were at a maul in a good position and he has a brain fart. Definite red, no argument from anyone in that regard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YeastyBoy Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 @PaddyBrew2 I will admit I was very pleased the Irish sang through the Haka. Believe that nonsense has to go west. The Japanese don't wield samurai swords screaming cut out your bleeding heart. Or god help us, the Scots doing a brave heart reenactment!!

Hairy Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 When does the Rugby World Cup start? I heard it was on this year and might actually catch a couple of games. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I watched the Wallabies game. No others on ten I don't think. Despite the result I found it more entertaining than league, and also enjoyed the lack of video reviews on every fkn try. I used to play and watch it more as a kid, but it's hardly on free to air anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the worst things that Rugby League has done over the years is remove the contest for the ball which means you just wait for teams to make a mistake or reach the end of their set. The unpredictability in the game has gone. The stripping rule this year is a step in the right direction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Baron Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Sydney FC lost to the Sydney Scum tonight after absolutely dominating the game and missing 1000’s shots. It feels like they have just lost the grand final and it feels like I just watched someone run over my dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirsty Jim Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 That wasn't a comment on your football woes Baron. It was a tip for the last at Flemington. Finished 5th beaten ¾ length after getting well out of her ground in a pretty good race. Next time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyBrew2 Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 Is horse racing as rigged in Australia as it is in Ireland. When you get a random tip back home you know it’s gonna win such is the skullduggery that goes on within the industry. I was on a lads trip a few years back. Tip came through from a mate who’s married to a horse trainer. It was a novice race, tip was for 100-1 shot. Came in first by a country mile. That night we splashed out on booze , strippers and whatnot. The rest we pissed against the wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirsty Jim Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I hope you took the tip Paddy. Pretty Brazen won the Sandown Guineas today. No skullduggery involved but hardly a state secret. She only paid $3.60 on the giddy goat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
