Mushrooms.

Muchrooms apparently taste good.
Make great soup
Good on pizza
Very good for you
Many other reasons.


I just don't like them.


Mushrooms = Rugby.

Better than getting points after you've already scored... "Well done, you made it to the end of the field. Now have a kick!"
I'm not perfect. I'm what perfect aspires to become

no offence to to league fans, but i think its basically rugby for the people who cant understand union.




That's exactly what it is!!!!!!

Even so, state of origin is great to watch.
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

Great point Pete NRL still has a SOO, remember when AFL had one of those, back before players were so worried about a broken fingernail or hair being messed up.

rugby = "ohh, u have tackled me and my elbow touches the ground, then i have to get up and roll it between my legs, but only 5 times, then i have to kick it"

AFL = "oohh i caught the ball now i get to go back pull up my socks brush my hair adjust my overly tight shorts and have a kick at a 21 metre target, oh whats that a team mate touched an oponent and now its his ball".

"but wait now the other official has seen something and its my ball again, now i dont know what to do"

I happen to completely agree with you Matty (and benny the cunt)!

State of Origin pre-AFL was brilliant, SA vs VIC was always a match to watch (bloody mexicans lol).

As soon as players started faking injuries to avoid playing it completely lost it's appeal in my opinion. We wanted to see the best they had out there but sadly wasn't to be.

It's a little bit similar to the club vs country debates for Football (there's a problem the AFL doesn't have) in that players were putting their clubs first because that's who paid their wages and that's who they copped it from if they got injured. Lack of pride and passion by all concerned if you ask me. With Football everyone wants to play for their country because it's such a huge stage and the rewards are there for all to see, some of the clubs hate it though because currently there's very little in the way of compensation if players get injured. I could talk all day and night about that so I'll stop now :)
