Knowing rugby union's traditional fanbase, probably...
this site is entirely devoted to fishing

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
actually,i was one of the few.went out on a spectator vessel for a close-up view.There were only a half dozen other people on board
I recall us discussing yacht racing when coach first started the site. I don't know anything about it but I believe some WA team won the cup and Burgs was celebrating still years later.![]()
Yeah it was a bit embarrassing really. I went and saw some of the 420's (?) racing in the harbour and around the 'hub' on the esplanade where I watched a medal presentation with about 10 other people... I felt a bit sorry for the competitors, they train for years, fly half way around he world, win a world championship and there are more people on the stage for the presentation than there are in the few hundred chairs in front of the stage... I noticed later on that a lot of the chairs were removed, in a poor attempt to hide the lack of crowd...
thats a bit embarrassing. seeing as they were advertising it for 2 years before it was on.
i was annoyed that i couldnt go. i was going to take my grandad's boat out and have a good look - would have been a great excuse to get in a fish as well.![]()
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.
