I'm sure Geeves Dingo who mentioned it to me will have posted something about this site. From an Australian perspective its very good. We don't get a lot of informed or in depth stuff in the media over hear. Rugby Club are a bit like the boyz down the the pub on a Wed nite talking about last weeks game. Its all pretty ordinary - quite good when we win but really no constructive criticism when the S hits the F as per last sat nite. Anyway its worth a look.

JJ I find the articles at the front generally bloody good but I struggle with many of the posters on the board. So I'm getting to the stage on it where I only really comment on the front stuff and leave most of the forum stuff alone.

Yeah, I've been reading stuff there a lot in the last few weeks, when it is quiet here.

I agree about sticking to the front page Geeves. I only ventured into the forum once - it's dark in there if you're a kiwi Wink

What gets me is the total state based fanaticism by some.  It's fairly obvious that many don't watch too many games involving another side or actually see the quality of the opposition their team is against.  While there were a lot of Reds bandwagon supporters there this year that were crapping on and just simply did not truly appreciate the 12 month transformation.

There are a few posters there that have a genuine appreciation of rugby and have been involved in it for a long time.  They are the ones who set the site up.

Yep agree with you Geeves I do like the articles & analyisis its nice to read someone who understands the game & looks at the detail rather than the Bullshite.

Been less interesting at GAGR lately, I'll think I'll give it a miss - even though nothing is happening here.

We all like to see our opponents moan  Cry and whinge  Angry  for a while after a loss, but there comes a point when it is just embarrassing  Tongue.

I would sign up and tell them to get a grip, but based on what I have been reading, Gagger would just abuse me and then ban me   Roll Eyes

Is this really representative of what's going on in the lucky country?
