Sharpe stunned by home crowd boos
Nathan Sharpe said the Wallabies were stunned and angered to be booed off the field at half-time in their rugby Test against Wales at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.
So it was booing I heard on the coverage, I refused to believe it.![]()
Looks like it may have worked. They played much better in the second half. Did the boos wake them up?
seems like it did but really wasnt a good game by either side
yeah it happens sometimes .. one would imagine it was more of a boo towards the rubbish pile that is the ARU right now rather than the players themselves!
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.
It was disgusting... plain and simple (the booing i mean... not the play)
I made Happy sad...
A true rugby fan would never boo their own team, even if you felt like it!
Jess - I gotta agree the booing was disgusting and inappropriate.
As a mutually exclusive concept however - so was the play in the first half. This was NOT an excuse for the boos though.

But we are talking about a game played in front of a Queensland crowd.![]()
Gentlemen/women, polite, civilised - not in Queensland I'm afraid.
Yeah I don't get it... It was the first real thing the rugby followers in Queensland had to cheer about this year and they booed!
Force of habit I guess.![]()

They played lousy in the first half, not only should they get booed but they all needed a good, hard shove in the back as well. Bloody Wobblies.

When the QRU themselves ran a "Boo Wendell" campaign, they sent a big message out that booing was OK - it's only gonna get worse....Originally Posted by hopep

I can understand why they were booing, I just don't agree with it. If you don't like what was happening then don't make any noise at all. A silent stadium would have more effect and the players wouldn't feel it was an assult on them.
