Craig HillA (Semi) Serious Rugby Post. The Waratahs in Mirth Hour....
March 31st 2007 10:45
It's halftime....The Waratahs are playing the Crusadists (I said it was semi serious....) at Aussie Stadium in Sydney.
Waratahs 15 - Crusadsacks 22
My husband and I were supposed to go but we gave our tickets to our boys friends and their parents are sitting here lamenting with us, the glow of the television highlighting our misery....well my misery...we're old, it's kinda cold (hey that rhymes...watch out you poets....)....
The game started at 7:30pm - Earth Hour - and The Tahs have indeed played like they're playing in the freakin' dark.
Who are these kids playing???
My youngest son's U10s team would give the Cruelsaders a run for their money.
And as for Tuqiri....
Please go. Just go now.
Tonight he truly has demonstrated that he is way out of his league.
Knorton-Night should have smacked the hell out of him....and then used passion as an excuse. See earlier post for clarification (link not provided will have to come back I'm in a rush).
The Tahs sorely lack and miss the experience and the power of Chris Whitaker (in Ireland), Daniel Vickerman (in jured), Phil Waugh (in jured) and.....Matthew Bourke (in exile...okay...in England...oh please come back Matt....)
....you know what else really and I mean really gets me?
Well of course you don't....that's why I'm going to tell you.
On this team are many many young men my boys have run rings around or my husband has coached.
Our boys could be there, right now, playing.... instead of groaning in their seats and thinking to themselves I would do this and I would do that.
But no....and you know why?
They wanted a life.
Why did my husband and I encourage them to have one?
For the life of me....I don't know.
....to be continued....
Game back on. Must get off my soap box. For now.
Postus Interruptus
The Waratahs are actually ahead thanks to Larkham (sigh) wannabe Norton Knight.... oooh gotta go....
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!
The Waratahs actually played like professional rugby players (sort of) in the second half.
Full time score:
Waratahs 33 - Crusaders 34
Tuqiri remembered he was playing in a Rugby Union team/match and actually did some work.
Peter Hewat......well.....
And the Touch Judge who made that call on Rico Gear (Crusaders #14).....obviously wanted to get on TV.....what a dick.
Okay....going......people to see......Coronas to drink....
Not to depressed, it's only The Waratahs.
The did well....
.....my belovedLarkham Brumbies will be playing soon.......
.....tbc.....again....when I'm sober......
