'We don't let anyone take us lightly': Kohli says England 'provoked' India into matchwinning form

If this was an Australian captain or team member saying this it would be titled “Ugly Australians”. Hearing English and Indian commentators say that it is good to have some “friction” between the teams. How is it any different to what Australia did?

The ten most cringe-worthy moments in Australian sport

“Tupou to get 3-4 match ban for his no arms hit….nothing mentioned in the piece…why is that??” Your comment to a previous roar article, how has that gone for you? Also AJ sums up you comment here. Just Relax.

Who has been tampering with Taniela Tupou?

In the words of Douglas Adams

God is referred to several times in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. He is responsible for the creation of the universe, but little else is stated about him and his actions. In other situations it states that there are several gods.
Extract from Oolon Colluphid’s Books:
The story so far. In the beginning the universe was created. This made a lot of people very unhappy and has widely been regarded as a bad move.

Final Proof of the Non-Existence of God

The Final Proof of the non-Existence of God was proved by a Babel Fish.
Now, it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some have chosen to see it as the final proof of the NON-existence of God. The argument goes something like this:
“I refuse to prove that I exist,” says God, “for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.”
“But,” says Man, “the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn’t it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves that You exist, and so therefore, by Your own arguments, You don’t. QED”
“Oh dear,” says God, “I hadn’t thought of that,” and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
“Oh, that was easy,” says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing.

Oolon Colluphid
Oolon Colluphid wrote many books on God:
 Where God Went Wrong.
 Some More of God’s Greatest Mistakes.
 Who is this God Person Anyway?
 Well, That About Wraps It Up For God

More Than One God
It is, however, not possible to understand this without the educational level of advanced god. However, since theyare too busy trying to explain how it is that they came into existence six minutes after the universe was created rather than, as they had always claimed, two weeks before, none are available for comment at this time.

God’s Final Message
After discovering that the people of the Universe were rather unhappy with their Universe, God set out to make sure they understood He hadn’t purposefully tried to screw with them. And so He wrote the following message on a mountain for anybody within range to see. The message went as follows:
WE APOLOGISE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.
The message eventually became a tourist attraction.

On the game they play in heaven

Nice “Faith No More” throw away there

The England loss had its roots set back in June

As a long term Drummoyne supporter & ex player (80’s) I was around when they were in First Division & promotion & relegation was happening. When they played Hornsby for the relegation game they put over 100 points on them. This was while Randwick & other clubs were putting 100+ on Drummoyne. It would be no different now.

Is the Shute Shield becoming more competitive?

The man who brought the round the corner style to Australia was John Gray (ex union turned league) playing for the North Sydney Bears, but it was common in Britain.

I have been wearing my jerseys every Friday & Monday to & from work & have not gotten any acknowledgement except for a very tame “Go Wallabies” once. It has been like it has not been on here in Sydney. Travelling from Strathfield to Central & then a walk down to Broadway. Maybe if I worked in the CBD or over the North side I would have gotten a better response.

Since the sides are taking turns in winning I hope that the order remains the same & OZ get a win : ). Having said that it is usually a tough game between the two. Was lucky enough to be at Lansdowne for 91 RWC game.

I think you need to have a look at the record between Oz & Ireland. In the RWC they have meet 4 times for 1 win to Ireland in 2011. The last few games have gone evenly with a draw in 09 at Croke Park.
