Its Scotland at France on now with Scotland making many errors in Paris. They need to pull their heads out of their kilts and get on with it. They should not lose to France this time around…that said, they are playing horribly. Too many ball handling mistakes and stupid penalties.
Then it’s England at Wales in Cardiff. The Welsh look good this year, The English look unstoppable going into this summer’s World Cup. This is England’s 6 nations to win.
Sunday it’s Ireland at Italy. The Irish should win this easily.
The games are on NBCSN if yinz is interested, if not, that’s cool too as this is an OPEN

Wow…11.4 percent. I had to split it with mrs coldwarrior…too rich for 12oz.
Maduro (Venezuela DickHead) is now telling his people that those who have partaken of the humanitarian aid are sick and/or intoxicated and one person is dead.
No aid has been allowed into the country. Of 4 trailers, they’ve set fire to 2.

Similarly in Brunei the US and British were VERY bent out of shape when the Royal Brunei Armed Forces asked to purchase 7x 50 cal sniper rifle kits including spares and training for $700k. The RBAF told Browning that they had a Browning already to practice on, whilst the order was being processed and export and end user paperwork was being done in DC.
The response from the Pentagon was WHAAAAT! Where the hell did that come from? Turns out that it was a part of a British order that was legally transferred to a Gulf State military. Tye Emir got his hands on one of the 50 cals and when the Sultan of Brunei visited the Emir gave the 50 cal to the Sultan as a present!
The Brits were royally pissed, the Pentagon was ‘rope-able’ but Gold Emir, The Sultan of Brunei and the RBTS couldn’t see what the problem was. Tradition says that Muslim leaders give high valued weapons to each other that shows their status. A $100,000, .50 cal sniper rifle plus all the bits and training was considered a ‘suitable’ present … forget all about these new fangled Western End User paperwork!…. We’re talking feudal here!

i was at Landsdowne Road in Dublin in the late 80’s to see ireland play the all blacks. the pure passion of Amhrán na bhFiann was the single most amazing national anthem belted out by the 60k fans in attendance. it was one of the loudest things i’ve ever been witness to…the passion was felt even by me, a foreigner.
and then the all blacks crushed ireland in a brutal display of clinical rugby.

The World Cup is no pushover for the ABs. Tere are any one of a number of potential winners waiting to pounce.
I just hope the refs get their shit together and stop this creeping defence. It spoils the game by slowing it down. Ping the first World Cup game for multiple off sides and everyone will get the message that this nonsense will not be allowed.
I couldn’t count how many times that the English were off side during this Welsh – England game.

The greatest malefactors are the English and the Yarpies (South Africa).
They need to be blown up a few times and they will be forced to change their tactics.
The trouble is not with their players. It’s with the coached who are pushing the ‘off-side’ rules to the limit and beyond and that destroys running rugby. Glad to see the French have NOR succumbed to this BS.

I know that the French are rebuilding … but they ARE the French… and on any afternoon they can explode and win against ANYONE

Was this the AB – Ireland game you were at?
The AB in the black and white head band is Wayne ‘ Buck’ Shelford one of the two AB flankers and one of the ‘hard men’ of AB history.
He’s a really nice bloke. WE are both on the Auckland Returned Services Association Committee. We have our office at Eden Park ( thanks to Buck). He was a Chief PO swimmer (diver) with the Royal NZ Navy as well as being a famous AB. When he retired from AB rugby there was a bunch of dyed in the wool Buck supporters who used to sing …. ‘Bring Back Buck’ … at AB games for the next 20 years!

He is STILL a hard man and still does loads of gym and is still solid muscle but he’s a really gentle soul …. off the rugby paddock!

If you want to understand the Boer here is a movie based on fact.
Breaker Morant.
It is about the facts surrounding the ethics of total ethnic guerrilla war.
Morant was an Englishman and a South Australian horse breaker who fought in the Boer War as did the Aussies and Kiwis. The Boer were fighting a guerrilla war against the British and the Brits were using ‘expendable’ troops from the colonies of NZ and Australia as guerrilla fighters as well.
Never again after Transvaal did any Australian military unit fight under British command. The Aussies were grouped into a Federal Commonwealth in 1901 as well partially as a consequence of the Boer War in South Africa. The Kiwis too always had their own senior staff commanding them after Transvaal.
Enjoy. It’s a classic movie.
