Why is Rugby So Annoying?

These mods on boards.ie don’t take their roles seriously enough as far as I can tell.

A member of the press (more likely someone from here registered over there) has been onto me about rocko’s post- I redirected them here… expect a big splash to be made about this and TFK to go global as a result.

Bawled. I hope.

I said what I said, you cunt.

Was reading the News and Star at the weekend. 16 page sports section. 8 pages of GAA, 4 pages of local soccer, 2 pages racing/dog racing, 1 page athletics/sundry other sports, 1 page golf/sundry other sports. Coverage of rugby on this most momentous of weeks - zero, not one word.

So you’re saying there is an alternative for those who dont want to read about rugby?

You won’t get much rugby on the WLR either. I’m suggesting that the penetration of rugby in the national media is not reflected at local level, albeit based on one single example.

Don’t read the Limerick Leader so, buddy.

PROC has reached 332 pages. You might recognise some items posted

I wouldn’t dream of it.

[I]The issue you have is with Irish culture/psychology/mindset. This post has absolutely nothing to do with Rugby and you’re clearly trying to illicit a response. You don’t get to decide how people celebrate their relationship with rugby, no matter how much it infuriates you. I would suggest taking your views to a more suited forum - and based on your previous bans you can stick to other forums for 6 months

Good post though, I had a giggle from it[/I].

Banned from the whole site for a week. What a shocker.

You’re such a rebel Mark.

Illiciting a response sounds serious though.

A Rugby World Class Superstar but only a Junior B Footballer.

And as it would happen with a Rugby player, there’s plenty of cocks

I saw that picture all over facebook and Twitter today and didn’t have a clue who the chap was. Thought it was just a random gym monkey, which in effect it is really.

Pity the poor cunt marking him all the same. No Junior B should have to come up against that brick shithouse, especially on a Bank Holiday Monday.

History says the best way to stop a tank is to have a Chinese guy in a suit stand in front of it

Did they ever find that fella after?

I thought it was a random fat junior footballer, and that the joke was about how some junior footballers are. It turns out this was not so. This disappoints me.

A junior B footballer in Carlow. That’s about as far down the GGA food chain as you can get and yet the rugby crowd would have you believe this chump is a world class athlete.
