The simple way to prove Boks also hold the 'unofficial world title' The simple way to prove Boks also hold the 'unofficial world title'

Two weeks ago, a Kiwi colleague with a penchant for riling South Africans put together a piece on rugby’s “unofficial world titles”...

Managed to bag another reasonably major press piece. This time one owned by World Rugby

@African-Monkey said in Crusaders v Rebels:

@sparky They're good at home as conditions and a smaller field suits them and opposition struggle to adapt coming to Chch.

They should have enough to qualify for the 8, but their away form is a concern.

Blues picked Sotutu as their MOTM

Time to tip everyone - some tough choices this weekend I reckon https://thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit/

This is a song by a mid-1980s Seattle hard rock band called Q5. One of the founding members and guitarists was none other than Floyd D Rose.

@antipodean said in Hubris:

This popped up in my YT feed. Amusing and quite frankly alarming as I haven't trained since prepping to go to France last year.

Doc says another week and the internal stitches should be dissolving so I can start training again. I already know it will be worse than the above video and certainly not as funny. Perhaps once you get over 50 there's such a thing as muscle amnesia?

That was pretty cool, I liked his honesty and humbleness. I’m shocked he only managed FOUR dips though !

You really do have to use it or lose it especially as the time passes.

Thank goodness I have a garage gym ( which is also a garage bar but only when I’ve done said gym work )

It's a trans representation of Alec Salmond (the former SNP leader who left to form a different party) who's key in any no confidence vote to keep the SNP in power in Scotland. Add in it was the SNP's abortive Gender ID laws which started their downfall and it's a very, very clever meme - though not up to @Tim standard.

Looks like these had broken again. There was a small change to the instagram urls so I had to update the pattern matching.

Should be good now. No idea how long it was broken

[Edit] Actually there seem to be a couple of different urls styles now. So not every embed was broken. It works for both styles now
