ENGLAND RUGBY UNION - YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED !

What the heck is the English Rugby Union thinking about ?
I refer to the BLACK jersey they are taking with them to the Rugby World Cup.
Yes ! I live in New Zealand - the home of the MIGHTY ALL BLACKS - N.Z. wears and as always worn the BLACK JERSEY - why are the English Rugby Union trying to copy the ALL BLACKS ? have they not got an original thought in there head ?????

What does it matter,it's only a shirt.maybe it's just a wind up

Never mind it's only a shirt, more to the point it's only rugby union. Can't imagine anybody in Wigan gives a toss

I see your point Dennis but when you have players from all sport's, representing Australia then play for Ireland, New Zealand then play for England and you can list many more it's all about making money these day's the fact is it is probably down to marketing and they are hoping to make a lot of money out of it.

rebian - I think it is a battle of the GIANTS ! The giants being the shirt makers.
The All Black shirt is made by Adidas.
The England shirt is made by Nike.
So basically it is Adidas v Nike.

Well they obviously won't be wearing black when they play New Zealand,..... So whats your problem

the All Black strip is to be the second strip of England

and the second strip of New Zealand is.........All White

How dare they!

and Rio your flippant comment shows an acute lack of understanding of the Rugby Union fraternity in the surrounding Wigan District - Aspull, Leigh, Orrell, Wigan, Newton, all running a number of teams and junior sections.

and by the way I for one DO give a toss!

wigvet you still up ? you should be having an early night ready for your bike ride tomorrow

farrie50

I've heard he's only doing it ONE WAY

theyre all only doing one way arent they

Kenny/farrie - just having high energy drinks for the long haul tomorrow - believe Kenny is busy taking his stabilizers off!

Kenny - cant join you on the early dart there as I will be sorting the lesser athletes out at the Brocket first - don't eat all the one pound bacon butties before we get there!

Think most folk around Wigan will be concentrating on a proper game of rugby

and so will I Rio because Rugby League is the best spectator sport in the world -

PS dont knock a sport until you have tried it!

That is a GOOD exccuse mate,wish I'd o' thowt of it

Corrrrrrect

ps dont knock a sport until you have tried it. You do not have to play sport to have an opinion. Ive known people who have been good players who talk a lot of crap about the games they played, but that is my own opinion, they probally think i talk crap. Every body is entitled to an opinion if you have played a sport or not.

I used to hate Cheese and now I love it but I find RU the most boring thing, especially after I TRIED it and went to Edge Hall Road to (TRY) to watch a game and hated every minute. Personally I do not know a single person who has the least interest in the other code but if you enjoy it so be it, although personally I still don't give a TOSS

I am with rio on this one, Rugby yawnion is one boring sport,far too much time wasted by stupid rucks and mauls, and penalty kicks ,how many games do you see that finish 24-18 or the like and then find out that all the points are from penalty kicks, I find that League players are invariably Fitter, Faster, and far more skilful than yawnion players, the main difference between the codes being that in League the players handle the ball, and in yawnion the crowd handle the ball.you may have gathered by now that I am another one who doesn't give a toss.

Not bothered if I never see another game of crappy R.U

rio you dont know many folk then plenty in wigan like ru,but not u,dont give a toss neither do they probably,why comment when your just venting your spleen.peawapp many very fit ru players .i can appreciate the finer points of both sports.

Couple of Tosser,s on here
