Supermike ... please, No !!!
As someone once famously said ...
I'd try anything once, except Incest, and Morris Dancing.
lesblue ... think of it as a patriotic flutter. I gamble regularly, and I always do it for the buzz, not in the hope of winning. I treat betting money as dead money, whether it's in the casino, or at the bookies. So, I feel better for having placed the bet, whether I win or not.
The Haka ... there was something on the telly last week where a bunch of killjoys were saying the Haka had no part in the modern game, and should be scrapped. I hope it never happens. I love to watch the other team facing up to them.
Do you remember years ago, I think Will Carling was captain, the England team went into a huddle and ignored the Haka? I thought that was pathetic, and so rude.
