    Thumbs down He's back.....

    While the rest of the Rugby press are posting stories about the ARC good ol "Grumbles Growden" has the knives out again and publishing rubbish and making himself the story rather then Rugby.

    I am not even going to bother with cut and paste but if you want to go look..

    http://www.rugbyheaven.smh.com.au/ar...530446740.html

    Hes now making shady accusations about "someone" in the ARU losing $20m and linking that to the ultimate demise of the ARC.

    He even brings up the ramblings of the financial wizz Matt Rogers.

    Well heres my advice Growden.....rather then go looking under the bed for reds....how about looking at the ARU website and downloading the Financial Report thats there for all to see...

    Its an audited document and shows exactly what the reserves are and what they have been since 2003.....all the reports are there..it shows the surplus from RWC2003 and also the distribution of monies to the member unions.


    Fair dinkum ya muppet...get a life....or start reporting RUGBY.

    How TF can you get to be a Chief correspondant with shit like this? Not the actual content but the fact that he's recycled most of this stuff about 3 times so far.

    It's a join the dots conspiracy theory. Throw three or four dubious "The Herald knows of's, a few "sources close to's", and not forgetting a couple of the old "inside sources", put them all in the same article and BINGO! We have a disaster around the corner. Shock! Horror! The sky is falling!

    Now try and tell me The Pie Eater doesn't lurk around this place. Since returning from his European sojourn his "Chief Rugby Correspondent" by-line has been missing. A few references here to "ex-Chief" and it's back again.

    'Morning Grumbles! Any new dirt for The Force today?

    It's a wonder with all these inside sources they don't start new workers signing non disclosure documents in thier contracts.

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
