Just wondering how your Theory of English Sportsmanship is holding up today?
Seems to be a lot of bitterness stemming from your region recently :)
Really ? Haven't seen anyone claiming that we were the best and only
beaten by the ref, Suzi, green grass, blue sky etc etc.
Really? Do you skip didges's posts then...?
It hadn't been made when I posted at 9.42. His post was at 11.24
according to my newsreader.

And he's wrong. The SA try was perfectly good, and there wasn't much to
choose between the sides at the breakdown for illegalities.

One thing I've learned watching games in a very international group
is that people watch and see different things depending on their
nationality. At a breakdown where NZ has the ball I might be watching
for illegal oppo hands on the ball when you might be looking for NZ
holding on, and we both might see what we are looking for. It's not
being one eyed, it's just people watching different things depending
on their desired result.

This effect causes a lot of the *** that gets thrown around in
here...

Agreed.
