Excellent Event and weekend yet again.
Such showpiece events deserve support from everyone with the games best interest at heart if.
It makes me laugh that our fans whinge about the media attention RU gets compared to us. yet they will turn out in droves to support their internationals and showpiece events.
our fans fans find excuse after excuse to avoid doing so.

Also, I find the sub text of this thread quite enlightening. A probable racist and easily offensive remark is made. When called upon it rather than defend it, justify it or explain it we get.
"Kangaroo Court out again"
"usual suspects"
"f**k 'em"
Its' a message board. What you put will be challenged. People are likely to take differing standpoints, especially if you post ill informed racist clap trap. Don't cry about it if it happens.

Plus, just for you Richie, I’d had a couple of pints so the validity of my memory may be put to question.
