Prop holding Court in Ireland

[jargan83]

no, he's just an overpaid twat

I remember hearing him say after the 2003 RWC and that we scored $40 million that the money would be used to set up a Domestic Australian competition, one that was sorely needed

[beige]

Yeah and he got given the arse

[jargan83]

didn't he can the competition his replacement set up?

[beige]

Yes. If you've got a bunch of money stored in a safe and say "I'm gonna buy a house!" and then come back later and the money's gone you're not still gonna buy the house are you?

[AndyS]

And you'll certainly sell the house that was bought for you at a loss in order to prove the point...

[jargan83]

Probably not

the APC was set up to fail by the ARU which sucks, probably deliberately.

Now they can thorw out the "oh well we tried"

[beige]

I'm getting lost in the metaphors!

[AndyS]

Ah, the metaphorest, I know it well - so hard to distinguish from the woods.

[Cowboy]

a bumper crop of cliches, just don't throw the baby out with the bathwater
