    Maybe on a better property or better climate and certainly with better gear but all would keep doing similar things!
    I wonder how many other industries could claim the same thing?
    That does remind me of the classic about the farmer that did win $10,000,000 in the lotto, when asked how he would spend it he said "I can keep farming for another 10 years"!!

    IRB Ladder Ramifications

    The fallout from these couple of upsets was a reasonable shake up on the IRB Ladder for the minows:

    Uganda stun Ivory Coast to climb rankings

    IRB, 3 July 2006

    Results in Africa's Rugby World Cup qualifying have brought the only changes to the IRB World Rankings, with Tunisia the biggest upward movers.

    Tunisia recorded a fine win over higher-ranked Namibia to move up four places from 35 to 31. The away loss drops the Namibians down two to 27.

    Lower down the rankings, Uganda - under the tutelage of former Springbok Cester Williams - recorded a fine win against the Ivory Coast to rise four places to 58.

    The Ivorians are the week's heaviest fallers, down nine places in the rankings as a result to 47.

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Burgs on a similar theme do you have a clue how the qualifying is going for the RWC07. I have already tickets for the 3 group B games and quarter final in Cardiff for next September. I know that my group games are:

    Wales v Australia
    Fiji v Americas 2
    Wales v Asia

    any idea the likely Americas 2 and Asia qualifiers?

    Namibian rugby is going down the toilet which is really sad as they have a good team. Money trouble mainly which I guess is why the minnows stay minnows.

    As a guess I would say you will get Canada/USA and Japan F-t, but I will look into it and update this post in awhile.
