    Aussie NRL Grand Final - Manly Sea Eagles vs Melbourne Storm

    From Sydney Morning Hearld THE day has come at last. A hundred years after rugby league began, the two best teams of 2008 - and 2007, for that matter - are set for battle. Two cities have a stake in the hostilities between foes whose histories could not be more different. The Manly Sea...

  4. A view from the Orient

    Well done on your win. Thoroughly deserved, after a good first half display by your mob and a shocking display by us. You guys (the players) were clearly pumped up and totally battered us during the first half. I thought we shaded the second half, up until your third, but as a team we cannot...

    Shambles at St James

    Kevin Keegan has gone, Mike Ashley is going and the Toon Army can no longer be relied upon to fund the senseless destruction of their football team. Newcastle United are in meltdown, slumped near the bottom of the Premier League and now, thanks to this lacklustre defeat at the hands of...

    Goal line Technology??

    In the light of the the Watford v Reading game at the weekend are you for or against goal line Technology?? Surely anything that will lead to fair decisions, help the decision-makers, and stop doubts and controversy has to be a good thing? It works in other sports. Ok, that's not what football...

    Tr-Nations/Bledisloe Cup decider

    Went to the Rugby at Suncorp Stadium last night - Wallabies vs All Blacks. Really good seats, practically on the try line and a great atmosphere in the stadium. Whilst I have not been converted to the egg shapped ball it was an experience being so close to top international Rugby and seeing...

    SUFC colours at major sporting events

    Just found out my bro-in-law has a spare ticket so I'm off to see Wallabies v All Blacks here in Brisbane tomorrow. I've never been to a Rugby match in my life and to be honest am not a great fan. However as an event, full house at Suncorp for a Tri-Nations decider, it should be good. I will...

    Life In The A-League

    Before I headed off to Oz I said I'd write a regular blog about what it's like supporting a team on the other side of the world. Here is my first effort by way of an introduction to the Queensland Roar - Queensland Roar vs Adelaide United – 24th August 2008 Come On! Imagine this scenario...
  10. The real cost of watching Football...

    Now, according to Virgin Money, the average regular fan of a Premiership football team forked out £1,331 (5% of average salary) supporting their side in 2007. This covered the cost of tickets, merchandise, travel, food, alcohol and match programmes. One in eight dedicated fans paid out as much...
  11. Centenary SUFC Rugby Shirt

    I know we can't offer things for sale on here, but is it OK to put up "wanted" ads? I am very keen to acquire a Medium or Large "A Century United" Rugby-style shirt (has the "original-ish" badge) if anyone is prepared to part with one? PM me if so. Thanks, Tom

    England Rugby Union players

    Imagine had that been the international football team caught up in a sexual assault scandal in an overseas hotel. There would be about 1,000 journalists out there digging dirt. They will probably get away with anything they may or may not have done on the basis that it was "high-jinks".

    A disgrace, these players are supposed to be role-models. Why can't they behave themselves? You would never find rugby players behaving in this way....oh, hang on.... From www.bbc.co.uk England rugby stars face NZ probe...

    Fossets Farm What I Don't Want!

    Just got back from Twickers to see the rugby. The atmosphere around the ground (outside) was very relaxed with a real family feeling; which I thought was great, but inside there was no atmosphere at all. Yes it was great that it was possible for beer and other refreshments to be taken to...

    Last night I was out with a few of the lads, proving to be my last Uni night out before I get back to Southend for the summer.

    The Great Technology Debate

    Its not just transfer rumours which get out of control in the ‘silly’ season but also always appearing from the shadows again is the subject of TV referees or a 3rd eye if you prefer. A referee sitting high in the sky surrounded by as many tvs as your local Dixons and making the call on a...

    Lee Trundle is overweight

    Lee Trundle is overweight, he has a double chin and if he entered the 100m sprint against a tortoise, an elderly shirehorse and a small brick, no-one could guarantee him a place on the podium. He has also just put Bristol City one game away from a place in the Premier League with a strike that...
