Let's face it, guys - this is proving to be one HECK of a competition.
What with the sanctimonious David (Pears) and the zealous David
(Bisman) plus Redbaiter plus WeeWillyWonka plus Owend all contending,
the quality of posts is execrable in the extreme, which means it's
looking to be a very hard decision to finally allocate that first
prize of a fortnight on the Weather Coast of the Solomons).
The prestigious Daisycutter Sports Digest "Post of
the Year" award goes to the post adjudged by the editors to be the....
(a) most morally OBTUSE, or ....
(b) most obnoxiously HYPOCRITICAL, or ....
(c) just plain IGNORANT statement of the year.

Then along comes this Wilkinson chap, who apparently is a runner.
Except nobody's heard of him, which is something he is determined to
castigate the rest of us for. It's time for obscure second
place-getters to claim their place in the sun!

Now, with the other people in this competition, there is at least a
semblance of rationality in what they write. No matter how
outrageously dishonest Bisman is in his posts, no matter how mad
Redbaiter appears, or how plain silly WeeWilly gets, at least you get
the feeling that there is a guiding intelligence behind all the
bluster and the lying. With Mr Wilkinson, though, one cannot be so
sure. This guy really DOES seem unhinged. And it's all down to the
fact that, while everybody else is raving about football heroes, he
and his pal Brett Dale just don't get no respek...

So THAT's the reason for all the bitter anti-football, anti-All Black
acrimony! It turns out that this fellow is one of New Zealand's
GREATEST ATHLETES - "second in the 1994 Oceania area champs", no less
- and despite his impressive, peerless ability, he had to shell out a
"fucking fortune", whereas those, errrrr, slowpokes like Doug Howlett,
Richie McCaw, Carlos Spencer, and Joe Rokocoko are idolised all over
the world, and fly first fucking class every fucking where they
fucking go! The fuckers. Jay-zus H. Kee-rist, life SUX, don't it?
Specially when you're a second-place getter at the oceania regionals
and everybody ignores ya, instead of recognising you in your rightful
place ABOVE THE ALL BLACKS! God DAMN, but life sux...

Every point Chris made was correct, my main point still stands, there are not
three or four All Blacks that could of gotten a medal in the Oceania champs,
Johan Lomu is not an Olympic class sprinter, how about posting some times that
these guys run over 100 metres. In pervious posts I have posted several times
of sprinters from Australia, NewZealand and International times of sprinters
from the Olympics. How about posting actual 100 metres times of these All Blacks.

the all blacks aren't athletes in the olympic sense, they're entertainers,
and with that comes a lot of money. If individual players aren't sharing in
some of the cash then it will only be the suits behind them that get it.

If people who win medals at international athletic champs are upset at what
players in more popular sports are getting they can only blame themselves
for picking the wrong sport.

Sorry, but the whole thing started when I added my sixpence to a thread
on whether the AB's deserved the increased bonus they negotiated. From
there a few of the guys started posting tripe about how these AB's would
take down top sprinters. All I've done is refute those daft claims, and
ask for proof of the speed these AB's apparently possess, which has not
been forthcoming...

I respect the ability of the AB's as footy players, but to have the fans
waxing lyrical about the AB's supposed ability to outperform other sport
people in codes other than rugby is bordering on stupid. I'm sure the
AB's themselves would never try to claim such ability...

Who is unhinged? Seems you went to a lot of trouble to compose this

Sorry pal, we just get no admission of the truth from the rugby
supporters in this thread. Sure if they tell themselves that the
AB's like Jonah are Olympic class sprinters they'll believe it
after a while...but Jonah better get training to try live up
to the 'immortal' status the fans give him...

Click away folks! Mr Breen and friends question my rationale, but really
could
you believe the crap they claim about the AB's? I'd believe that crap if
those guys could show me cold hard proof that the players really were
that marvellous at sprinting, but until proof comes I'll just treat all
such claims as tripe...

If these are who I think they are, they were all good at both codes.
In the world of sport today, with no disrespect to the achievements
they made, they would struggle to fit into both codes at top level.

The peak of top-level sport requires more physically today than it
may have when these guys were top dog. Thats why you see so few
double international sportspeople in the modern age...

Are you able to add yourself to the list? The content of your
original post in this thread seems to meet many of the above
criteria...

...and who do you think you are telling people what sport they should
