Rugby - Super 14

[Big Bird]

Rugby - a game played by men with odd shaped balls.

<i>You don't have to know the players and coaches in question, I think these quotes could have been made by any footy player/coach/commentator...... Auntie BB</i>


"Nobody in Rugby should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein." - Jono Gibbs - Chiefs

"I'm going to graduate on time, no matter how long it takes." - Rodney So'ialo - Hurricanes - on University

"You guys line up alphabetically by height." and "You guys pair up in groups of three, then line up in a circle." - Colin Cooper - Hurricanes head coach


Chris Masoe (Hurricanes) on whether he had visited the Pyramids during his visit to Egypt: "I can't really remember the names of the clubs that we went to."

"He's a guy who gets up at six o'clock in the morning regardless of what time it is." - Colin Cooper on Paul Tito

Kevin Senio (Auckland), on Night Rugby vs Day Games "It's basically the same, just darker."

David Nosafora (Auckland) talking about Troy Flavell "I told him, 'Son, what is it with you. Is it ignorance or apathy?' He said, 'David, I don't know and I don't care.'"

David Holwell (Hurricanes) when asked about the upcoming season: "I want to reach for 150 or 200 points this season, whichever comes
first."


"Andy Ellis - the 21 year old, who turned 22 a few weeks ago"(Murray Mexted)

"Colin has done a bit of mental arithmetic with a calculator." (Ma Nonu)


"He scored that try after only 22 seconds - totally against the run of play." (Murray Mexted)

"We actually got the winning try three minutes from the end but then they scored." (Phil Waugh Warratah)


"I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body." (Jerry Collins)

"That kick was absolutely unique, except for the one before it which was identical." (Tony Brown)

"I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father." (Tana Umaga)

"I would not say he (Rico Gear) is the best left winger in the Super 14, but there are none better." (Murray Mexted)

"I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat." (Ewan McKenzie)

Murray Deaker: "Have you ever thought of writing your autobiography?" Tana Umaga: "On what ?"


"Well, either side could win it, or it could be a draw."(Murray Mexted)

"Strangely, in slow motion replay, the ball seemed to hang in the air for even longer."(Murray Mexted)

it'd be interesting to see 2 rugby teams play a game of football and see what effects it has on their health, i would suspect the game would be a bit slower, but i would expect a significant majority to play a full game
then see 2 football teams play rugby, i wonder just how many of them will survive uninjured to half time.

its also interesting to see how the fans behave differently.
when was the last time there was trouble reported after a rugby game?
the aggression is on the pitch so no need for it off the pitch.
i went to an england/scotland 6 nations match at Twickenham and all the fans mingle, the rivalry is intense but without malice.
on the train on the way home, we shared the rest of the beers out with the other fans from both sides, nae botha at all.

and as for sharing the bath, anyone who thinks this suggests homosexual tendancies should take a look at their own insecurities first. especially before saying it in front of the likes of Phil Vickery or Lawrence Dilalio (excuse the speelin).

when we played with odd shaped balls at school , you quickly learnt that if you got hold of it , you were to get rid of it, as quickly as possible. before the marauding pack got hold of you, and kicked the shite out of you (and that was just the teachers) In fact i remember when i was seven me sister pointed out the rugby posts and told me they were for the "pole vaulting" i spent the next three years looking out me window cacking me pants everytime i saw those posts. now i wish it had of been pole vaulting as rugbys crap
although nothing gets to bore tha pants off you more than "Cricket" what a feckin load of shite that is
"organised loafing" they have to pass the ball around the whole field just to make sure everybodies still awake

Cricket - As explained to a foreigner

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

let me be the judge of that - send me a PM

EDIT - ChrisG PM'd the joke - I really wish he hadn't.
Yes - it would get him banned from the forum,
and no - it isn't that funny and no - it doesn't end with "but think of all the money I saved!"
