Re: 2024 Springbokke
I assume we are going to see similar results from the boks as the last years before the RWC. Wins and losses.

Re: Most iconic music artist

Re: Kicking off in Israel
When I was travelling through SE Asia back in the day, the Israeli backpackers had the worst reputation by far for being arseholes to their local hosts.

This. He had the status of a demigod in Germany. Could talk the dumbest stuff in interviews, even confirmed doping during his playing days, he called it "Vitamin injections", yet nobody cared and he forever remained the Kaiser.

Re: The best new and returning TV series thread
I've been a bit ambivalent about the latest series of Fargo. It's been good, but I wasn't overly impressed with episode 7 tbh, and wasn't sure if it was worth persevering with. Needn't have worried. Episode 8 is terrific! Sets up the final 2 episodes beautifully... Only up to ep 3. At least back to...

Shocking lack of self awareness from Raggs. Israel is a hostile occupying force. There's almost universal use of the term 'occupied territories' ffs. Palestinians have been killed by Israelis as a matter of course for years. The universal use of such terms for Israel is part of the every day anti z...

I was really hoping that the NZ Supporters wouldn't pull a French or English bitch fest after the match. Mostly the posters on here have been reasonable. Out there it's horrendous. From fans to ex players and coaches. I am also tired of the " we were the better team playing better rugby "...
