RE: Happiness Scale
i think there has been a couple of threads that have touched on similar topics and im not really sure the best one so i'll stick this in here and move if needs be
so, i decided during lockdown last year i was going to get back into playing rugby, wife was working long hours and quite honestly i just got a bit lonely at night
found a club not too far away here in melbourne and preseason started training started late Jan.
jeez, a real wake up call, apparently jogging just doesn;t cut it on the fitness scales, having a proper conditioning coach is helping and can at least finish a session without having to take a break to "stretch"
some real trouble with knees/achilles/calf's as have had issues with them in the past. slowly coming right though through proper training
can i also just add the back of the lineout seem a lot further away that i remember from the last time i played!
preseason games started this week, if anyone wants to feel a but queasy i can provide photos of my back from the first game, black/blue and red
in general i feel good though, great to meet loads of new blokes ranging from the 20 years olds trying to go pro to some older hats waiting for the squads to sperate so the 3rds can spend at least one training run at the pub
and interesting development is the wife, started making comments about missing me being out 2-3 nights a weeks and Saturday games still on the horizon
will settle down i think as i have no expectations above the 3rds and so should get a night back a week
just interesting how things change a bit

Watched True Lies (Schwarzenegger & Jamie Lee Curtis) for the first time in a decade or so. Just a really, really fun movie.
4 Jamie Lee Curtis Stripteases out of 5 Spinal Tap drummers
love True Lies, highly underrated, one of the best comedy action films, also a very fun videogame
This could have gone in a few threads...might have already...not going to check

RE: Argentina One: Parramatta, 14 November
The saffas argument they couldn’t get match fit looking a little silly...this the first game this year for most of these argies

@antipodean said in The Cane vs Savea Debate:
This argument that if we have a hard hitting 6 then we can afford to carry someone who is passive in the loose forwards is ridiculous.
not sure thats what people are saying?
We have seen the discussions here many times before where there is making tackles and dominant tackles, both have thier place, your 7 if he is playing for t/os isnt gonna go hunting for the big hits
So you end up with a flanker like Cockwomble. If your support and cleanout is on the job, his entire game is nullified and you're making yards.
There are far too many people who watch SR and think that translates to Tests.
thats offensive to my people

also, lets not discredit the side effects might include superpowers

RE: No kids, any regrets?
this thread has made me feel a bit better, just knowing there are others out there, we had two couples that we thought might not have kids...and both have announced during lockdown...just when i'd been in my head so much more, second guessing pretty much every decision ive ever made!
cheers @chimoaus

all jokes aside,we think Jordie is having a good run of form....and he's played a bit at 12....and midfield is still in flux...give him a run at 12?
fuck. right. off.
so...maybe?

RE: Happiness Scale
@paekakboyz said in Happiness Scale:
Awesome!! Im a long time retired and I can only imagine how the first few weeks of contact will feel!
Fuck I miss it!! I love the gym and weights but being able to unleash on the paddock is something else.
And when a forward pack really starts humming its a magic thing to be a part of.The running and conditioning was a bit rough...but that first scrum felt pretty good

RE: Lockdown Check In
@mokey said in Lockdown Check In:
Finally got some great news in this hellscape year. I'm now officially a USA Today bestselling author. Can plaster that fact everywhere and on book covers as well.
not sure how youve managed that when you dont even drop a plug !
dont want to tell us the title because then we'd know who you are? smart
congrats
will have to check if you've recommended any books in the past with unnecessary praise for the author

RE: F off with the damn PC Brigade
@mn5 apologies...forgot where i was, as you were
I will just add pretty much every "news source" had what i would call straight up lies of headlines...but still no one actually read the articles that i saw

RE: F off with the damn PC Brigade
@mn5 did anyone actually read the articles about the Mr Potato head?
my understanding after reading them was it was only the brand name that was changing, as there is more than just the Mr in the range...but there was still going to be a Mr and and Mrs and all the others
seems like everyone lost their mind at the slightly sniff of wokeness

RE: Happiness Scale
@taniwharugby i had my touch/football boots but first scrum we put down just showed they had nowhere near the grip needed
yeah, the contact is full on and has taken some work getting use to sticking your head in dangerous places

RE: Happiness Scale
@mariner4life have to say, had to do a lot on my own, down the local school on the off mornings to practice throwing against a back board, googling videos of AB hookers going through throwing
it will be a test if it just take too much time out of the week, dont want to go too far the other way and piss the wife off
just some mates a bit closer to home that want to watch some rugby every so often was the real catalyst
did get to buys some new boots thought whish was cool
