God sends liars to hell. Apparently.
Jeez this pisses me off ...
In dissecting Folau's looming sacking by Rugby Australia last week, Wide World of Sports recalled a first-person column by the Wallabies superstar, written last year after his first harmful social media attack on LGBTIQ people.
What about the asexual? Damn asexualophobics ... where's the "A"?
Hate speech.

Definitive answer is Otere Black because Mrs Boo.
Just mentioned to Mrs Boo some bloke ( @sparky ) set up this poll. And before I had a chance to read out the list she said "Otere Black". Good enough for me.
I'm just impressed she knows enough Super Rugby that Otere Black exists ...

MacDonald was an experienced 10. Played plenty of provincial and Super at 10.
Wasn't almost all of it after he was selected to play at 10 for the All Blacks though? A few games for Marlborough as a kid.
Someone ought to tell All Blacks .com that they are talking shit: link text
No.
I'll expand. He had played plenty of rep rugby at 10 well before he was picked fir the ABs.

@Billy-Tell said in 2019 Rugby Championship:
There is absolutely no way Ryan Crotty gets a start at 10 in an international treat match. Has he ever played a game at 10 even at NPC level??
And yet Leon MacDonald started for the All Blacks at 10 when things got desperate.
I'd rather a very good, very experienced player out of position than a very average and green player in position. Stephen Donald was a better first-five than all the options being currently lined up, and he was poor the first times he played for the ABs.
MacDonald was an experienced 10. Played plenty of provincial and Super at 10.

18 months ago he was ranked 1199th in the world and his doctors told him his body was so shot he should give up playing. Tiger proved them all wrong.

Not so long ago, Tiger was somewhere between holy relic, distant ghost and washed-up film star. There are comebacks, there are renaissances and then there are resurrections

@NTA said in Aussie Rugby in general:
Kafer saying today we're better off without him.
Interesting from the guy who is one of our High Performance Coaching Level Coordination Supervisory Hangers-On.
Part of the plan to push him out?
BTW fuck Foxtel. Had it on in the background awaiting the NZ QF and all of a sudden it's showing an old interview with David Campese from the Back Page and I'm trying to find live wcore updates.
(Fox may have switched to another channel but I only thought of that about half an hour later... and by then didn't care) ...
