Good to hear he's doing ok.
To AMH: might get round to changing my username eventually..... but not yet - I still want to pretend I'm 21.
Being 21's great! I should know; I've done it twice.
-
Fascinating stuff - many thanks for posting the link.
-
Green On Red - Zombie For Love, great band, great songs.
Some of Chuck Prophet's solo stuff is also worth checking out.

I feel really sorry for him. We have our part to play here. Chris Irvine posted on here about his RL blog and received a very negative response. Perhaps if we'd been more positive it might have helped him.
I don't recall this. In fact, I thought his reception on here was mostly very positive. Particular praise was posted in comparison with Eeyore Wilson.
-
Shame. His RL blogs used to be good reading, especially the ones he posted during the last RWC.
But, like most on here, I'm not paying any money to the company who employs the plastic Welshman Jones.
Best of luck for the future, Chris!

should do next try wins, could take sometime tho
I'm not a fan of the Golden Point as it currently is.
My suggestion would be that a 'golden try' would count as an immediate win, but kicks would only count on the scoreboard with the match going to the end of extra time.
-
My wish list would be
Cummings
Ganson
Child
Silverwood
Any of them please so we all can integrate them.
I can imagine you preparing to attend the event: "Pitchfork - check! Flaming torch - check!".
-
Enjoy it mate and have a good time and please do report back.
What he said - I'd like to know your impressions on the game in the US.

Agree about the avatars but this site will only let you use one of the correct size.
Right-click your avatar and select 'open image' or whatever your browser's equivalent is. That's a larger picture (not huge, in your case) which will take as long to load as an avatar as the original image.
-
It's not just signature pictures - some avatar images are linked to quite large images, which slow down page loading. I had the same problem on another forum, where although the avatar only appeared on the screen as a thumbnail image, it was actually a full page jpeg.
-
Mind you, looking at the comments below the blog, that DonGorgon is a real charmer, isn't he?
-
Watching the 'red button' post-match forums, I saw Dave Woods for the first time in quite a while. He's lost a bit of weight, no?
In general, the BBC's coverage over the two semi-finals was pretty decent.
-
Aye but decent punctuation helps make the meaning clear. Thats it purpose, innit?
Indeed. Try reading the following sentence without the commas: I helped my neighbour, Jack, off his horse yesterday.
The Crusaders are looking good for the future, from what I've seen and read. Harlequins, on the other hand, do worry me, partly for the future of the club and partly for the gloating joy that will be expressed on here by many if Rugby League fails anywhere outside the 'heartlands'.
-
Didn't the ARL have a 2 pool arrangement a few years back (in the Nineties?)? Or is my memory completely failing me?
PS, whatever his faults, is at least mainly positive in outlook. His plan at the start if this thread is either total pie-in-the-sky or a very very long term possibility.
But it is better than Andy 'Eeyore' Wislon's prophecies of doom or people endlessly trying to drag the game back down to 'the good old days'.
-
And thanks as ever Futtocks for the recommendations.
Have you joined Dime?
I only signed up yesterday afternoon, and there's been about three or four pages' worth added since then. Amazing.
-
NZ will be playing Samoa
If it's half as entertaining as their last warm-up match, against Tonga, it'll be well worth seeing.
-
Thanks to the excellent Dime a Dozen site, I've been enjoying various live stuff by John Prine, Morcheeba, The Staple Singers and Gil Scott-Heron. Life ain't so bad.
-
Cheers, might still give them a go anyway, just to say I have.
Any recommendations?
Cook 'em like chicken legs, making sure they don't dry out. The flavour's nothing particularly special, but you will be able to say you've tried them.
-
Sharn't even bother asking about the boil RLW fails to lance in The Red Hall Diaries because no-one listens, maybe if I ignore it it will go away.
Maybe a poll is in order? It might turn out that someone, somewhere likes RHD.

-
Indeed. And as for bloody February, it was cold enough in Edinburgh last May for me!
Soft flippin' Northerners.
-
The first time I saw the teenage Jason Robinson in action.
The years have lent familiarity to his style (and, of course he slowed and became a steadier player), but he was like something from another planet, back then.Barry 'Goal Machine' Ward landing a conversion from the touchline against the Kiwis. Just makes me laugh.
The first half of Wales v the Kangaroos at the Millennium Stadium. Specifically, the huge grin on Lee Briers' face when he scored that try.
-
but it will be held in Feb with the Derbys back on the agenda, can only assume this will be the opening weekend of the season
Worth trying, although I suppose many fans will still be paying off their Christmas overspend.

A coach with a double barrelled head - John Kear.
Couldn't let that pass without a
Widnes Vs Canberra
in The General Rugby League Forum
