  • Field Theory: Worst. Game. Ever.,

    I'm with scott, give ritchie a break. we didn't lose that game because of a lack of brawn, it was brains that cost us. check the turnovers, we got our share. the stuff that cost us was foolish adventurism and failures in basic skills - most likely cue to foolish adventurism. they've clearly been given license to do wotever, but lack the judgement to pick the right moment - consider Joe's attempted breakout from ingoal, Tialata's drop out and any number of ridiculous attacking bombs from within our 22. that last test was the most frustrating match to watch, like a toddler trying to thread needles. I hope it's repairable at least before we start our home games and well before I lose patience with the 'nothing is wrong' bollocks we're getting from Henry et al. the fact is that aside from Hayman, Carter and some fiddling due to form fluxuations, that's pretty much our best side. The best you can say, or hope, is that we can only get better.

    here endth the hairpulling...

    '' I'm sure we'll see one in this weekend's Herald on Sunday.

    That would require an element of self-knowledge that I doubt you can have as an employee of the Herald without dying of shame. :) ''

    hang on Craig, I had a witty rejoinder stuffed in my sock somewhere...if I can just reach it...ah, there it is.

    fuck you.

    oh, and with a :) just to take the curse off it.

  • Island Life: Bye, bye, you peculiar guy.,

    heh, all this prog talk got me visiting youtube to hear some Fruupp - you know it's the real deal when you read comments like this...

    ''Fabulous band! Saw them at Cleo's Derby too! ALSO at the Kings Hall Derby. The bassist/singer used to sit in a wingbacked armchair, under a standard lamp and read the tale of the prince of heavens eyes...great stuff!''
