Well said
Super G !! The "Blicks" are a proud and great team and internal buraucracy and a surplus of "alickadoos" (British Rugby term for @rse kissers and hangers on) have unsurped them and their Rugby loving public.
For example: WTF was Anton Oliver doing as skipper last year (isn't intelligence, leadership, common sense and tactical/strategic nous a prerequisite)? The previous encumbent (Blackadder) was selected as captain first and player second because he wouldn't hold his place as a lock on merit. Its like English Cricket, bull$hit from the top poisoning everything below. Its prevalent in NZ govt and in their flag air carrier. A pity...nice people (IMHO anyway), great soldiers, superb rugby players (always preferred playing with 'em than against 'em!).
I'll be seeing you in Perth, Brisvegas and Sydney for the big show
Super G!! Should I bring some Moosehead, Kokanee or Molson with me?? You never know, you might be on the 'Coover- Lax - Sydney flights with me in Spring 2003
