Seriously, Its not his fault he sucks at rugby and is a traitor to his country.

Deans is much the same, and do we abuse him in front of his mum?

If not, then we should, someone go get him mum so we can have a word......

1239306 2011-10-24 00:03:00 Its only a game, we just get too serious about it sometimes. I have played and watched beach volley ball played in a sandpit in the outback in a mining camp. You would have thought it was the end of the world to be on the losing team, I mean really crushed talked about days afterwards and it was only a game against machine operators and the workshop. prefect (6291)

She elected to go over the ditch to live.

1239308 2011-10-24 08:34:00 Given that they've gone to Aus to get paid work, with the bonus of the work involving the sport they love, they're no less partiotic than every other Kiwi who's hopped the ditch for work.

If it was an unpaid position, then yeah, it'd be more questionable, but in the world of paid 'professional' sportsmen, well we'd better get used to it.

Hell, half the AB team come from the Islands anyway, so they've been poached by NZ.

If you went to Aussie, would you like us saying the same thing about your Mum.
I highly doubt it :)

The report does not say anyone in the crowd insulted her directly. They were bagging her son and of course she was upset.

Stephen Donald actually played for NZ and I can guarantee he was insulted when he was recalled a week ago mainly as a result of that one kick in HK last year. Now he has redeemed himself with one kick this year.

1239311 2011-10-24 20:34:00 ...ultimately, Quade is a Kiwi...

Yeah, right!

I think he has forfeited the right to be called a Kiwi. He may have been born here, but if he's playing for Australia he must have naturalised and obtained citizenship...

1239312 2011-10-24 20:36:00 My dear old Mum would have cried if people were saying nasty things about me around her.

Unless she had a glass or two of wine, then she would have joined in the slagging.

Lmfao.

Mums, ya gotta love em.

1239313 2011-10-24 21:04:00 People can say what they like about me (and generally do!), but if my mum waded in to try to defend me I would be mortified! johcar (6283)
