Super(14)Man Returns: The Sigh Quell....
March 23rd 2007 05:18
Stephen Larkham (sigh) is definitely back.
And myslump despair melancholy......oh bloomin' hell!!...what's the word I'm looking for?????
Whatever it is, it's quelled okay?
Larkham (sigh...oh stop that!) will make his eagerly awaited return to the Brumbies starting...
yes, starting, none of this bench b***shit....oh whoops, other way...bulls**t...
....line-up in this weekend's Super 14 match against the Sharks in Durban.
I have been miserable ever since...oh wait, this is not about me...Larkham has been miserably missing in action ever since suffering a subluxed sternoclavicular joint (aka f**ked shoulder), when a Hurricane landed on him on February 23.
(Brumbies v Hurricanes... results not available due to technical difficulties. I can't type it)
Supposedly Larkyum has been attending the games (friggin' cameramen should be sacked...I didn't see him...) and has been watching in frustration as the Brumbies have run around like headless horsemen with 'kick me I'm a loser' signs on their back.
Frustration?
He's frustrated??
I'll tell you frustration....really long rant....not a link...that's missing in this chain of events......I'm done now.
Got to say that Larkham is sorely needed (pun not intended but it stays and it's not really a pun anyway, as far as puns go, it's pretty lame....groan....) because oh yay, for a change Captain Stirling Mortlock has decided to get himself injured (during last week'sabysmal loss match against the Cheetahs).
Just because he hasn't been injured enough this year.
Stirling is sooooo not made of steel.
Then there's Gene Fairbanks who has let a minor injury stop him from playing. I mean, who needs a neck?
Pansies.
Larkyum will start in his usual position of The Perfect 10.
Julian Huxley will still be around because, although he's no Larkham, he's a purty darn good player and he's not bad as a #10. I'd give him an 8.
Huxley will be playing inside centre because Stirling has been tarnished.
Harsh? Who's harsh?
George Smith, flanker aka mongrel is Captain this weekend.

Oh...yes, that's right...there's other teams.
Waratahs v Blues 23/03/07 @6:30pm FS3
...and that'll do for now.
....just because the Sharks haven't been beaten this year is no reason to cue any silly themes from any silly movies.....yeah....you know who you are....cashmere....

"bloomin' hell!!..." - Yeah, still trying to envision that one.
yes, starting, none of this bench b***shit....oh whoops, other way...bulls**t...
Love it! Love it! Love it!
"Supposedly Larkyum " -- Even I'm lickin' my lips and I've never seen the guy in action!
No muse... my ass!

You should be his agent, you sell the man so effectively. Even I want to watch him!
Slight problem with that though ... I don't have Fox and my weekend TV sports fix will be taken up with zooming around the track with the V8 Supercars, a box of flavoured crackers in my hand and a cup of tea (pretending to be a glass of wine) on the table beside me.
I'm already practising my hysterical shouts of ...
"What the hell do you mean ... a f**king drive-through penalty for that?"
Heaven help me if I start wondering which car SL is driving ... you really will have confused me then!
Great post, my friend. I do love the way you write!

I think the words you are looking for in relation to your pining and craving for anything remotely Stephen Larkhamish, [or Larkyummmmmyish] ... and what sort of effect his absence from Rugby has on you, are:
Larkadaisical ...
Stephapathy ...
(not Stepapathetic - I tossed up using that one ... but the connotations are all wrong ... with pathetic on the end ... it could be taken the wrong way ... yet I do like it when used in the right context ... it's like saying his absence has a debilitating effect ... it's an noun versus adjectival thing ...
And, I wet my pants at this post, but don't tell Norm, okay? ...
(There is so much in your posts that makes me laugh ... and yet I hardly know Rugby at all ... [and that's my attraction to the whole word play thing ...
I still think you have a way with words and a unique style that is unparalleled ... and I don't care what other people think of me writing that ... (which is why I've justified it?) ... It's just a genuine and sincere compliment ... I get so much pleasure out of reading your posts ...

SL and ML are related? ML of V8 Supercar fame, of course.
Damn, I knew we were eerily connected in the Sister-hood but this is just ridiculous.
Although, personally, I'm a Mark Skaife groupie, but that's beside the point.
Oh, and by the way ...
Thanks, David, for the quote. I whole-heartedly agree.

That's how we talk here in Kentucky! I know, you couldn't hear my accent in my typing, but we say things like:
idnut.... which means "isn't it"
I've even heard people call windows "winders"
Oh, lawdy, and now you've got me started...
I have this thing for names, right? If I hear a name I haven't heard before, I comment on it and usually ask how it's spelled.
So I'm on the phone with this guy (a while back) making arrangements for my mom's new house. He answers the phone and says his name, which *tugs ear* sounds like - Key-yen.
I repeat, two syllables... key-yen?
He says, 'ass right (there I go with the ass again)
I say: What a great name! How do you spell that?
He says: K-E (wait for it) YEN
I have to repeat before it registers...
K as in kangaroo?
Yup.
E as in egg?
Yup.
Yen as in.... oh for god's sakes! KEN?
Got to love the south!

I think Mark Larkham is/was with Ford? Yeah? Not sure.
I think I'm blushing.

Great stuff.
Dusk, I must confess I find Rugby downright annoying (don't hurt me!), but I like reading your stuff 'cause it makes me pay attention. I have to read each word, carefully talking it in and analysing for puns and double-entendre before moving on.
Thanks for making me pay attention ;o)
Even despite the blinding Larkham shrine...
Keep up the good work.

I am as thrilled for you, hearing that this man is back, as you were hearing about me not having to drive the anti-christ anymore...Great News all round...
I just thought I'd add to it a bit (if at all possible)... by letting you know that one of your posts, (last one I think) just helped my daughter complete her homework - something about deconstructing media coverage of sport and all that stuff ... you know Year 10...all too highbrow for me to understand, I can barely grab the meaning of construction, let alone deconstruction.*giggle*
Anyway, I wanted to thank you,
...hope your team (the Brumbies?) wins..hey wait a minute, aren't they the Canberran team?
much pyaari,
Lilla ...

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply....although I am chuffed that Larkham is back....I had bigger and better things to celebrate.
My husband is home.

Oh gasp......my apologies to your daughter for having to wade through the way I write!!!
Glad to help....I'm just amazed!
Hope you're well pyaari...

ps. yes the Brumbies are Canberrians and I should be a Waratahs fan but I have followed the Brumbies since they formed, 11 years ago because I have been a fan of their players (yes more than one) for a very long time....but shhhh.....in the 'physical world', I actually write about the Waratahs......
