I'm with Hadyn on this, and I watch a lot of Rugby. Ask the other people in my house. We don't need this in the game.

I agree there's no place for foul play.

I do, however, believe there is a need for players in rugby (and other contact sports) to have an intent to hurt the opposition. And injury may be a consequence.

If you go into the match with the intent to injure your opponent then you have no right to be out there in your national colours.

Don't watch much rugby eh?

Hell yeah!

Who would have thought McMillan still had that left in him? Unbelievable.

I actually have a fairly long tradition of not digging BDO headliners. I thought Soundgarden were dreadful (twice!) too, and all that machine rock from America gives me the shits. It's like the roll fell out of their rock 'n' roll.

Oh, please don't make me use the Report (Offensive? Report this post to a moderator) function.

What was the deal with the sound setup for The Killers? Flat, muffled and, at times, completely inaudible.

Oh no. I hope that loveable pooch - Hong Kong Phooey - doesn't get dirt swung his way for being an influence.

I'd also have to request a link on the front page which takes you to the last page of these discussions. Save me one click!

Isn't that what Last post by ... does?
