The offer of 2 pints, a bus from Twickenham and a ticket to the game for £10 is a good offer. I cant see the club going for that one though.

You can keep your pie and chips though!!!!

You are going into too much detail. it was me that asked you for more feedback on why if you "love your footy" you don't come and watch it here. I would watch a lot of games in Australia not just the elite NRL. Why? Because I also love footy and I love the interaction with other fans.

The OP has started a thread on the VT suggesting ways in which to improve the "game" and the WCC......this is before he has set foot inside a ground to watch RL over here


Because the Aussie Public blah blah blah.......well guess what! You jumped on the plane...nobody held a gun to your head and flew over here. Please don't tell me you went through 5 airline meals and 36 hours of discomfort just to post observations that you could have done from back home? Get down to the stoop...you never know, you might enjoy it.

No to a free pie? Not on a diet are you?

You know Aussies cannot eat and drink at the same time

An English work colleague introduced me to Steak and Kidney pie and chips from a chip shop, wrapped up in white paper with heaps of added salt and vinegar.

Before I came here people warned me about British food.

I should have listened



An acquired taste I guess!

lol with you being from the home of the pie floater

... wrapped in white paper ...
Bl**dy modern softie fad. Used to be wrapped in newspaper when I were a lad. Survived it, too.

Why would buy a pie & chips in a fish & chip shop?

Depends on the pie. Now Hollands pies are first class. I thought the aussies liked pies. Maybe only koala
pies?

Word to the wise: Remove from the paper before eating.

Actually, the pies at Quins are done by an Aussie company! Jumbucks I think, or whoever it is that has shops at Shepherds Bush and Fulham! They are quite good, though maybe slightly over priced.

Back on Topic - taken from the Storm diary

"Greg Inglis got through most of the session before being rested which was pleasing, and he looks on course to play some part against Harlequins on Sunday"

Melbourne coach said on SLTV that he was going to have alook at how Inglis goes and if he feels hes fit enough he would give hime something like 30 minutes against us.

I know we want the Quins to do well against them,but be great to see him play.

Also read that Gale out for us not only this game but for another month due to him breaking his jaw. so who we going to play in the Halves along with Orr.

That leaves Melling...........I can't think of anyone else other than kids, though I am sure Sharp or JOC could front up!

Melling is a terrible stand off. I'd put a youngster there.

Can't we try and get Rinaldi back?
