I'm willing to bet Eddie bit his tongue so hard, he qualified for the blood bin.
This was not a game. It wasn't even shame. It was a sham.
The ref?

Fearful of his wife as much as further SANZAR penalty, Eddie Jones bit his tongue rather than use it to lash referee Brett Bowden after crucial decisions helped the Western Force dump Queensland into an even deeper Super 14 hole.
I'm willing to bet Eddie bit his tongue so hard, he qualified for the blood bin.
Already on the wrong end of $15,000 in fines this season*, the outspoken Jones decided to grin and bear it after the Australian official showed the beleaguered Reds no sympathy during their 38-3 pounding at Subiaco Oval on Friday night.

cue: hysterical laughter track
A contentious penalty try, followed by a yellow and then red card to winger Peter Hynes all before half time made a difficult task almost impossible.
But Jones said any more sanctions for tirades against officialdom could cost him more than money.
"It has already cost me $15,000 this year, so I would be in debt for the season if I keep going," Jones said.
"I am not intending to get into further debt or I will probably end up in the divorce court as well.

Well, a friend's "hi" is always understood..and welcome...no matter what the language.
(This post is about a Coach of one of Australia's regional teams. He used to coach our National team, the Wallabies in how to lose every major game trophy that was won by us. He should have been fined for existing then. )
Thanks for coming by W...and yes, I've done DuskDEvi... it's always the E....

I suppose 53rd is ok...if you`re into LOSING....and considering that none of the team probably live in the country anyway it`s not bad going....
LOL...I feel your love for this man...
