TRF EA Rugby '06 NZ Tournament

yeah i understand what ya mean, there will be two screens going with the game (at this stage 2 screens anyway) and the losers can use the tv to their hearts content. is there any rugby on that weekend? anz cup (or is it over by then)

*goes and studies*
 
After the main comp's all done then it's open slather on what's played, but if anyone wants other games during it, then way you go, as long as it in no way interferes with current game being played in rugby comp, fair enough?

I'm keen for Fifa 06 or Tiger 06, also games could be played on PSPs if anyone owns one... not me though just thought I'd bring it up :)

Woosaah - there may be a 2nd round Air NZ Cup game on that weekend, I know I'd be tempted if it can be slotted into schedule...

Can we fit in 3 screens in your lounge? [/b]

maybe if i did a bit of juggling but where would everyone sit? its going to be a bit of a mission anyway and if there was another screen where would my tv go?
well i could put it behind one of the screens (covering the stairs) its possible, but might get messy.

yep saw that, will only be on if its canterbury!

ok will only be on with a majority vote...

ok the game or games will most likly be televised, hell we are the rugby forum we cant miss any games can we?
 
yeah as far as i knwo you can hire em, ill check out and c if the local blockbuster has one
 
im happy to bring my 360 and two controllers but someone will need to hire the Table Tennis.
 
My aim for this tourney will be to make the semis seeing as the competition's going to be pretty tough.

Without having played everyone (or anyone except D O'Brien and Andrew Horton) I think the order of ability and ones to beat will be:

(pure speculation of course)

Gay-Guy (Out and out favourite)
dobrien7 (Precise skills and accuracy that GG might struggle with)
Ceejay (Seems quite onto it, but lack of multiplayer exp could hold him back)
Danny Bullen (new, but sounds very keen, switched on and could be dangerous)
C A Iversen (Me, experienced multiplayer, great attack, suspect defence)
Woosaah (Home ground advantage, but will need some multiplayer exp)
Andrew Horton (Decent player, multiplayer exp, seems to play better in tourneys)

Who else is definite?
 
Table tennis a great game, but if we bring it, thats what everyone will end up playing, its like a crack addiction, and once you get a taste you just want one more go! especially multiplayer!! Kaftka and AK should be able to back me up on this. I know we wont be getting together often, and there are lots of great games out there that are great multiplayer, but we only hav a short time, and I want to keep it about rugby. I know woosah said that other people can play on the TV while the comp is going but, im telling you it will turn into a ping pong comp.

Ha HA, far too generous iverson, put me back at the bottom!!! Seriously ive only played MP against two people, and not that often, Im going to get squashed!!

Well, not for me it won't. Only if we get finished early for me. :D

I'm not travelling half the country for ping pong. :lol:
 
yeah it should be an after torny thing...

especially for the final the room has to be dark everyone watching the one screen on both sides of the room. cheering for whoever they want. the final has to be a big occasion.

I have only had one game of MP and i bet the guy by alot, and i dont normally play side view but that will change.

Danny and I are gonna catch up real soon to have some practices.

should be real good
 
It seems everyone else is ok with multiple games, so I guess ill stop being a stick in the mud and get over it.
 
just that the rugby game takes presidence over everything else, IF we decide that multiple games are nessisary
 
Did anyone see my early predicitions above? like I said, pure speculation, but anyway, I'm looking forward to this more and more each week.

I scraped home against dobrien7 last night in a 5 minute game 7-0. He's quite a handful though and I have noted that sometimes he can nail the first-five before he can get a kick away and I'm talking about in pocket!

From a standard position, he can nail the first-five about 70% of the time. If you go off the side of a scrum or maul, he can do a jarring tackle and make you lose the ball about 80% of the time!

So, I rate him a bit, as you can tell. :lol:
 
nup didnt notice that

i just looked at you had me second to last

why i oughta....

i should be last
 
What the hell!!!

Me as number one?????

I got my ass kicked 50 odd nil last night by my trainer.

The only team I know well is France. I am starting to learn S.A and Aus....I suck with the top teams England and NZ. I have a bit of a clue with Wales and Ireland. So I have a long way to go.

Only this week we are finally buying the game after hiring it out every weekend. $55 on trade me.

I am getting another 3G phone today $155 on trade me :)

And 3 girls dresses...$8.

And an XBox360 for $25................I wish.

My "trainer" is so good he has invented a "top speed" spin! Thats right.....you know how you do the spin at a low speed...well he has discoverd a way how to do it at full flight.

He has also invented the look behind at the guy who is chasing you as you cross the line without turning around!

He has discovered how to quickly decelerate when you cross the line so you can do the "no respect" sevens rugby style of placing the ball standing up before the defence smash you.

My trainer is a bloody fanatic who thinks all day long of inventing stuff for R2006 while he goes on autopilot working in a furniture factory. I just turn up and he gives me all his hard work (well he does have some secrets). He does assure me that I should be able to lick some serious ass.

He is currently working on finding a way to discover th smash tackle......if there is a way to do it manually.

Yep.....in JLR....he was one of those guys who helped discover some of the secrets.

This is no bullshit....but his soon to be 5 year old son is a pro at R2006, Halo, GTA, DOA3, Top Spin, Star Wars...and others......and often comments on our games with his little english when he watches us adults!

Once my trainers almost to be 5 year old son was playing my trainer at R2006 and embarressed my trainer by going (yes going) for an intercept and getting it (centre to winger pass....not an offload) then running 80 metres for a rty.......barged over my trainers fullback to go 50 metres for a try......legally high shotted Shane Williams when my trainer decided to do his Shane Wlliams irresistable move.....and gassed my trainers cover D over 60 metres after doing an unpredictable inside ball....this is NO BULLSHIT!!!!

Hmmmmm......I suppose I am in good hands playing with an AB level gamer!
