How did I forget about Jason RobinsonBoyBrumby said:
(steds to come in here to post something about playing for Wigan in 5..4..3..2)TBH I thought Tuqiri and Rogers have looked more reliable then Sailor has in the last four or so years in rugby. There have times when he was brilliant for Queensland and Australia and times when he has been crap.
Pardon my ignorance as I don't get the chance to follow Six Nations all that much but has Farrell played for England yet?
As for Gasiner I have read a few articles about him they reckon he would be a winger instead of a centre as he wouldn't be ready for the centre position in rugby and especially in a World Cup year in 2007.
Although I think (don't quote me as being correct) Tonga played schoolboy rugby.

You didn't see The Lions in 2001? He was pretty great then. Scored a belter in the first test; Roff (who was no slouch) showed him the outside & Jase accelerated & was round him in the space of about 3 yards.Blaze said:
He was fairly ordinary last year, but his legs have lost that vital yard of pace. I still wonder if he might yet come back to the colours tho. He's an infinitely better player still than Voyce, Cueto or (*spits*) Cohen. The year off may've done him some good.

Hasn't even played for Saracens yet! His knee is pretty much shagged I think & then he broke his toe & suffered a prolapsed disc in his back.Craig said:How did I forget about Jason Robinson

It was always a huge gamble (too huge, IMHO) to sign a 30-year-old with as many miles on the clock as him. IIRC he'd been playing tests for GB since he was 18.

I like the fact that the Poms and the Kiwis get it live while us Aussies get a delayed telecastBoyBrumby said:Just watching Roosters v the Broncs. Tight game, not too much in it.
Nice to see Edmondson finally make his debut, but it'd be nicer if the commentator could pronounce his name right: it's Edmond-son not Edmond-stone. How hard can it be?!?
Been that way for yonks now, though.

Chooks were absolutely awful 2nd half. Poor old Soliola had one of the most ordinary games you're ever likely to see: 3 knock-ons, messes up a play-the-ball on the first tackle in the Broncs half & then does his medial ligament tackling which they reckon will be him for 4-6 weeks.

Impressed with young Eastwood. Big lad isn't he? Looks about 12 too; there's no way he shaves yet!

Tonights game is not that pretty to watch...looks like the Broncos are going to come out on top in a match of indifferent quality really. It highlights the gap between the Knights & the Cowboys vs the rest really.
* An update from our British friends has indicated the Broncos won it seems.

Indeed. Top lad, Edmo. Always gives 110%, quick for a prop, nice bloke and pretty good looking to boot. Didn't expect to see him playing for them this early, though. Pity he had to be on the losing side.BoyBrumby said:Nice to see Edmondson finally make his debut, but it'd be nicer if the commentator could pronounce his name right: it's Edmond-son not Edmond-stone.

And yet another from the school crop of Benji Marshall... Ill tell ya, Keebra park are pumping them out at the moment...
The broncos were lucky to nab him actually, he signed a contract for them about 3 weeks before the Tigers/Keebra deal was done, which would've meant he almost certainly would've been playing for the Tigers...
For the Record, Keebra Currently have 6 players from The Marshall years in either 1st or Premier League..... Hows that for a side???
