OK, enough tech stuff.. time for a sports post.  Paul, Joseph.. Skip this entry   I noticed on the stats page that someone landed on this blog with a search query of "NFL on Foxtel".  Thus, this post..   Today I started watching Denver vs San Francisco since ESPN is covering […]

…and the top reasons they’re gonna lose..   Hi.. you guessed it –  a sports post..    Tomorrow night marks the culmination of the TriNations series of Rugby Union for 2007.  The finale pits New Zealand against Australia for not only the much coveted Bledisloe Cup but also the TriNations trophy […]

Well, the weekend’s over and now it’s Monday.   The weekend Wobblies looked every bit as shaky as we’ve come to expect in the first half until the second half when Gregan came on and the team was transformed, once again, into soem kind of cohesive force.   The team […]

Well, it’s official – the Brumbies are out of the Super 14 semis with the Reds giving it all up to the Bulls in South Africa. What a horrible season for both QLD and NSW rugby.. Although there was some good news in that Lote Tuquri managed to sneak in […]

Well, the sports world is abuzz with rumours and opinion about what is the likely future of dual international, Lote Tuqiri. Personally, I think he should go back to Rugby League so that Rugby Union can go back to focusing on growing its own talent, and reward individuals within its own ranks, […]

** In Game Commentary ** 2 min warning.  Colts have this won, folks. Lovelock is an idiot.  Though, putting Griese in isn’t a bad idea. Now Manning can have fun. Another Rex Int!  My namesake, Bob Sanders! Oh, It’s not looking good for the Bears.  Now they have to play offense or […]

  Joseph Cooney, look away.   Okay, so tomorrow morning 10 AM AEST, the NFL "Grand Final" – the Superbowl kicks off.  This year pits the Indianapolis* Colts against the Chicago Bears, in South Miami.   Peyton Manning is the star Quarterback for the Colts, and this is his first […]

  Advanced warning: Sport Post.  Joesph Cooney, please ignore.   OK, so I know that this post is two days in arrears, but I didn’t want to lose the sentiment by analysing round 2 of the Australian Open – at least without discussing Lleyton Hewitt’s first round match.   Those […]

  News from the Australian Rugby Union Desk   Well, looks like Lote Tuqiri might end up back in [Rugby] League or he might stay in [Rugby] Union – it depends on who will pay the most mullah ($).  Apparently he turned down a AU $750k p.a/4 year contract offer from […]

Wow.  The Wallabies beat a team they should have.  Let us rejoice. It’s really quite funny.  We had our air conditioning fixed last week, and the repairman (Ray) and I started talking Union.   He asked me who I’d rate at what position in the current team.  Irony?  The team that […]

  Wallabies ‘Thrashed’ in Ireland this morning; http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,20787698-23217,00.html   I *didn’t* stay up to watch this monstrocity (for a change) and it was probably a very good thing I didn’t. Match report doesn’t do much but to sing praise to Ireland.  At least Australia managed 6 points..   Can’t say […]
