2nd test - Australia v British & Irish Lions

[AlRums]

Nah basketball salaries in Europe are pretty good.

NFL yes

Not the NBA though

 

[Jimbo]

According to the latest stats, the UK is now poorer than Mississippi!

Maybe we will just buy English players!

I’m curious your clearly delusional but why is it Americans and their apparently superior elite athletes don’t compete in football and rugby, they then have to create their own sport no one else plays, is this because their incapable, despite their superior athlete's and money, you are so full of **** it’s unreal, and don’t try and put it down to the pay unless they are all so unpatriotic they have no interest in putting their country on the sporting map.

Unfortunate comment from Will Greenwood describing Keenan as a Kenyan distance runner given the amount of Kenyans that have failed drug tests recently.

 

[Rinkadink]

Okay, I bet under 500k in Oz.

 

[General Melchett]

Some cool heads in the phases leading to Keenan's try. No silly offload attempts. Just keeping the ball and staying patient

Sounds dramatic but… that will be the last time professional rugby s seen in Aus

The World Cup is coming in two years.

 

[ChicagoKid]

That was the bet. I said the sport loses in the future host of the World Cup.

 

[mungo]

Don’t think you northerners understand the ramifications of this. Rugby league is taking over Australia and New Zealand is next.
officiating like this adds to the downfall of rugby

 

[Groundhog]

Third wealthiest lol. Because American companies use your country as a tax haven.

Oh no! The goalposts, they’re moving!!

I worked in FDI for a few years. Common issue with trying to build a pharma plant in the states for example is if you try to build it in an actually low cost location like your beloved Mississippi for example you’d struggle find enough people who aren’t crackheads to staff it!

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

My motm would have been either Curry, Genge or Kinghorn

Skelton had the biggest impact for me.

Silly that MOTM has to come from the winning team.

 

[McTallshort]

Great test match. Well played Australia but apart from the first 30 they were mainly second best. The Lions pack fronted up in the end and it was game over.

Lowe has had a poor tour and shouldn't be in the test team otherwise the other players have fronted up.

Where's the integrity?



Outta here kid.

 

[McTallshort]

He only played 45 minutes otherwise I would agree with you

1.) We have more gold medals than any other country.

2.) LRZ makes more as a practice player than he does playing rugby.

3.) In America, we are capitalist. We care about money.

Yeah…

@TRF_Olyy can we take this to the politics thread before this boring twat ruins this one?

 

[Reiser99]

Excellent match. Feel bad for Australia and wanted them to win and add dome jeopardy to the final match.

My company has multiple locations in Ireland. I’d take a 40-60% pay cut if I wanted to transfer. Sounds like a wealthy county eh.

The only place in Europe with similar wages is Switzerland.

Ah yeah, good shout

I still vote to ban the ****.
