<<watch no European rugby to claiming that you watch it on "The Rugby Channel". Just a point I thought I'd raise... >>

Oh dear God!!

Read them from the beginning...you will see it clear as day.

I said I can't last till half time in a match.


Do you have 24 hour, 7 day rugby to watch and therefore access to the style and form of all teams in the world?

No. So you have less to go on.

For a guy with a kid and therefore at least 20-odd too - your writing and research are of a standard lower than mine.

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, so put down the boulder buddy.

Just a little fact for these two's heated little argument...

Christian Cullen in a recent interview did say that NH rugby was right up there if not better than S12 & NPC... its sum of the hardest rugby he has played...
just thought i wud bring that up, not faning the flames just bringing it up... as for reihana we needed him last year i rekon but a few guys hav put their hands up in the last couple of games and we obviously dont need him no more... he'd still be great to hav around tho...

I've been saying for two years now that the best way to represent a teams ability is to link it to the IRB rankings. It wouldn't be hard to have an update each month from the IRB site:

http://www.irb.com/WR/

That way no one can complain!

huh wales 82 england 92, on current form (the past 6 months) i dont think so!

Also does anybody really think Leicester are the best club team in the world. Surely Toulose, auckland blues and the brumbies etc.... would contenst that theory!

What are you on about? I haven't got a kid, and I'm not in my 20s. Where the hell did you get that from??? Seems like you're the one whose research is a bit off mate.

As for the point in your previous post, I'm getting riled up because of your pure arrogance, and 'I'm better than you attitude'. It annoys me when people like you talk such crap, and then will come out at some point no doubt and call the English the arrogant ones.

I think I made my views perfectly clear and articulate, you just need to open your mind a little and at least consider someone elses point of view.

And just for a bit more evidence that both leagues are clearly much closer than you think, read 187's post about Christian Cullen.

See? You did it the right way where you count ties as two seperate places and continue with the numerical order -- I love that. Awesome! Lists rule!

Why they gotta go calling Calvisano, Brescia? Calvisano is a place as well. Geez.

For the record, I am in my mid-twenties.

Oh god, how sad is that !!!!

Being in your mid twenties and sound like a teenager, that must be tough on your fragile and narrow mind. Don't worry, things change, you'll get old and wiseer someday.
Now you should quit insulting people just because they don't share you're point of view, my 4 year old son does that, you're far to old to behave like this man.

Actually you insulted me first ********.

You only frogot because it was so forgettable.

Who wouldn't get off on dishing an ass tanning like the one you got.

You keep hasseling me...

I keep hasseling your rugby....

Thus you substitute any decent argument with insults of my character when you don't even know me!

What a f***wit!

I didn't say the NH teams didn't have good players, I said that they weren't AS GOOD.

Learn how to read and stop believing your own hype WATERBOY.

Wow, still pumped up after a good nigh sleep.........
damn .....you should get laid sometime.......
Anyway, you can go on like this for days, it won't change anything
you still sound like a spoiled kid to me.
but still you make me laugh,
i bet your friends (you do have some right ??) like you, must be cool to have a clown around. [/b]

How did France go against the Blacks last year?

We are the French in the Six Nations?

Dude - take a good look at yourself, your own hypocritical propensity for insults and the state of your national team - which is more full of children and clowns than I will ever be.

Au revoir asshole.

Vous avez merde dans la tete.
