That never changes. Did you hear George Smith going apeshit over Berger's squirrel gripping? There's a bunch of them that really are low.

Berger, another Saffie who put the "nut" in c nut.

Effectively, you're saying that if someone is murdered and the cops never catch the killer then the victim isn't really dead.

So by your definition the team with the best disciplinary record is effectively the dirtiest?

by freddled gruntbuggly Mon 25 Aug 2008, 13:40

In my opinion, going by what I've seen, the 'Boks are the dirtiest team in the game. I'm not alone in that opinion.
The record books don't tell the whole story. Never have, never will.

So you are not disputing my stats, good.

by freddled gruntbuggly Mon 25 Aug 2008, 13:50

Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

No, just disputing your interpretation of them. And you never do respond to that point, either, just keep wittering on about the stats. It's very Merlianish of you.

What interpretation?

The fact that Aus has more yellow and red cards in RWC history than SA, has only one interpretation.

by freddled gruntbuggly Mon 25 Aug 2008, 13:57

Yeah. the 'Boks are really, really good at getting away with being dirty.

That Aus have played more RWC matches than South Africa?

What are the thoughts on Elsom getting a week for grabbing Matfield's arm in the lineout?

Didn't look to be much in it to me ...but I've never jumped in a lineout...

I guess he has assassinated me in the past from 4,000km so his powers are boundless.

It was being set for the Kalgoorlie Cup (so we could have an excuse to jump on a plane and go to Kal for the "round" ) but the qunt injured himself....

What a complete joke that is. Since when has the disciplinary panel been exclusively bloody idiots.

A ludicrous outcome given what the Saffies get away with every game.
