Cheers, though might be hard to do that with Moria constantly deleting posts all the time.

Think you'll find Ramar started it, not me. Wales v South Africa next month!! That'll be interesting for sure!

From an England perspective it'd be stupid to just throw 15 youngsters into the team for the 6 Nations, so I'm looking forward to a bit of continuity with certain players who can lay the foundations (Sheridan, Stevens, Moody, Easter, Wilko, Tait, Lewsey, Sackey) and mix all that experience with a bit of new talent. I imagine most nations will do it like that. Question is who will the coaches be!!

Just pointing out something I read mate, calm down. I just thought it was quite an impressive fact, nothing hidden agenda behind me posting it, just thought I'd share. Actually there was gonna be trouble when I went there a few weeks ago to one of the games and was told I couldn't bring my camera in. Was not pleased. Seems some stewards say one thing and others say another. Should have just tried another gate but couldn't be arsed.

A nice, if expected statistic: Not a single arrest during the entire world cup, 40 odd games, thousands and thousands of spectators. No trouble at all, no controversy, nowt. And packed stadiums for every game (except the ones in Cardiff lol)

Anyone that looks like Nick Frost is a winner in my (and probably Fresh's) book. A slightly slimmer version anyway.

If you say so. Never really watched much Super 14, should be great to go to a couple of games though if that's what you're planning? Wonder what the Six Nations will be like with most of the nations starting from scratch...

Can't argue with any of that.

Top left as well. I'll shut up now lol

I think the middle left and middle right are his two best ones actually.

(to you) Nice attitude there from a member of staff. Wonderful stuff mate, how do you do it? I thought you guys were supposed to be 'listening' to us members? I'm making a complaint about Moria but of course it's dismissed. It would also be nice if the people who have pvt messaged me about him would speak up as well in this matter. Fact remains had a member called a mod 'pathetic' in the way you just did, he or she would have an inffraction a split second later. As I said, I'm not trying to stir trouble, just pointing out how bad a select few of you are at doing your job. And when I say a select few, I mean a few. Not all mods/admins.

Isn't that abuse? Shouldn't you get an infraction or have your post deleted? So mods can talk to members like shite, but members get this: "You should not speak to a member of staff in this way." As much as you may think so, I'm not trying to stir up trouble. I just have a major problem with Moria (and a couple of others) and the way he does things. I'm trying to make a point but it's clearly falling on deaf ears. I want this forum to be top notch but speaking of slippery slopes...

Fields, it's not shocking at all that Moria is a bit trigger happy with his modding, it's become laughable in its relentlessness. Oh look and now I'm banned from the thread, quelle surprise. And to stay on topic, admins... when are you going to remove Moria as a mod, considering he shows zero ability to do the job properly? Just gotten an infraction: "You should not speak to a member of staff in this way." - Yes matron. lol

Moria please stop wanking while you mod the forum and let people get on with a bit of banter rather than getting off on deleting posts with the slightest HINT of what can only be called disrespect.

Why were posts deleted? Nothing offensive, nothing abusive...

Not gonna turn this into an argument cause I can't be arsed. Simple terms... "Football stadium filled with 70,000 segregated Football fans" = more trouble + 10x more police presence than "Rugby stadium filled with 70,000 mixed rugby fans" - No hypocrisy, just facts. Even the French police were saying at the game that they never have any trouble at rugby matches, even at a world cup final. Makes no difference how many fans there are of both sports, as long as you compare the trouble caused between both groups of equal numbers then it's fine. And the fact that football fans need to be separated says it all really. Geddit? Same old stuff from me really, but was prompted so there ya go. Anyway, the Six nations is AGGGEESS away arggggghhh

Ahh but my comments are actually decent ones based on fact. You tarring rugby supporters as a whole because some weirdo greenpeace guy ran onto the pitch is a bit weak lol Never mind...

Agree Zell, bit of a stale game that was exciting in the sense of England playing and the overall tension. Both sides were too nervous to try anything too risky in a world cup final. Ohhh dear... what a pathetic argument mate. You're making something out of nothing lol. Even the French police on the night agreed with us. But hey moving on eh?

Proud of our lads. 100% proud of them, they gave their all without backing down until the final whistle and in the end we were beaten by a better side. South Africa fully deserve the win as you've all said. Their lineout really is the best in the world, as is their back row. The TMO decision for the try was very dodgy but never mind, you win some you lose some. Big shame but as I said, at least we didn't disgrace ourselves (unlike many other countries this competition). Far from it. The team's motto has been Shock The World for the past year given our last four years. Certainly did that. Ok, your comment annoyed me, but never mind. How does it put my rants to shame? That a stupid streaker ran onto the pitch? Fully agree. Bring on the Six Nations!!!

True enough More BBC updates: More rugby-fans-are-better-than-football-fans ammunition from the press officer for the French police, who says: "We've had no trouble here at all. It's not the same as football fans. Everyone is in good spirit." "If this comes down to a kicking duel there is only one winner and that's Jonny Wilkinson. I've got a feeling - I don't know why, I don't think anyone could say why - but I'm backing us." "I was much happier in the run-up to both the Australia and France games...we didn't stand a chance so I could watch happily without the burden of expectation. Now, oh God! We stand a real chance of making history. I haven't been this nervous since my wife got her new credit card. ALLEZ LES BLANCS!"

Yes. Bastards.

Got a text from my mate, Paris has been taken over with rugby folk having a great time. Why not Daft?

I think he means the reaction of the opposing supporter. In any case, just under 6 hours to go!

Gee I wonder who you could possibly be talking about with those top notch spoiler warnings.

Happy Birthday fella!! Have a bday cuddle...
