Maori rugby team

[Trudes]

NO, No, No! I won't have that, sorry. Listen; if your above post had an ounce of truth in it your time at Uni could be cut to two minutes, not two years!

Get it right woman.

My sister, a very loving, caring and talented woman, would be a valued nurse today (looking after anyone from the injured to the aged) if were not for the fact that she refused a certain Maori portion of her training. She declared it irrelevant and time-wasting.

What a load of politically correct b/s.

Holy shit!! I love her style!! I'm so fuckin over it! Every bloody paper has a fair amount of it in its content, Christ, enough already!!!

Doesn't worry me at all if we set up a Chinese Expats Slant Eyed Blacks team, or a Pommy Expats pea, pie and 'pud eating Blacks team. Everyone has the right to hang out in their own groups, but then if the South Africans don't want them visiting, then don't bother, go somewhere nicer.

Hell we are in the Capital and me and Trudes and Col could set up a Wairoa expats team of indulgent chocolate eaters in Wellington or something like that huh! Hmm lunch, when's the next Welly lunch with or without rugby talk?

Hey sounds good to me, Strawberry Fare?

Oh please send that to all the writers of the shit I have to read for my degree that go on and on about the indigenous culture of NZ blah blah blah, and the lecturers at Massey University while you're at it who insist on ramming the Treaty of Waitangi down my throat at every oppourtunity. It would cut my four year degree down to about two if I didn't have to keep reading the same shit said in a different way constantly!!!

Ahh. Bliss.
When work pays for this shit.
When the lecturers are plentiful.
When the results are unimportant...
the fun-factory is in FULL production...
For some reason, lecturers' do not like Wanganui instead of whanganui...

Not much burley is needed for a certain fishing location.

there are 7 different versions of the glorious idigenous language, one for every boat that landed

for some reason the east coast version has been forced upon everybody

so now the northern place names (and many others) have been changed to the east coast variants

strange that places I talked about at school with local idigenous people no longer exist and have been replaced with some foreign east coast name

Like Mount Egmont being replaced with The Naki Hill or Mount Cook for Anoraki, coz it rains heaps?

Go the Horis.

Now the rest of the world can maybe start to see the kind of shit that happens in South Africa, the racial card has been played for decades in that country, I just wish they would get over it.

Fuck, this is as bad as the girly coffee rides debates.

Let's face it, the Springboks are just looking for excuses not to have to face the humiliation of having their arses kicked.

Hahahaha....the best response so far. Just trying to get my head around the concept though.

We have girly coffee runs because we dont want to get our arses kicked? Take it international I say

Oh FFS!!!!!

[Dr_seuss25]

I find this all so interesting.
In my mind we have gone above and beyond the race based system that S.A are trying to, somehow, stop. We already have a society with equal rights and have moved forward from that to not only allow Maoris to be in the All Blacks, or any team for that matter, but also to form a Maori team as a heritage example. the fact that this team has been around for so many years proves that NZ is progressing far from the apatied (sp) era that S.A still seem to hang to.
Would they have the same complaint if a NZ asian or samoan team decided to tour S.A along with the All Blacks?
Its just a great example of a piece of archaic thought that has somehow found relevance again in a society that has passed the creator.

have some bling. I am printing that out and its going on our wee noticeboard thing at work. If I lived in "The Castle"* it would be going "straight to the poooool room"





*the best Australian film EVER. Apart from Mad Max maybe.

[fire eyes]

hmmmmm ...

Personally .. I would like to see Rugby scrapped altogether!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But that would be rather unpatriotic of me eh ..

Saving the planet there mate. I put 2 concepts in the one post.

[firecracker]

Bloody rugby........NZ's fundamental fuck up of all time!

Why not send a Maori team across to the redneck South Africans to try and poison?

In all seriousness, an all Maori team is good for Public Relations

Glad you didn't mention 'Priscilla'.

I prefer 'The Castle' over 'Mad Max' though. So many quotable quotes.

Darryl Kerrigan: "Tell 'em he's dreamin!"

Darryl Kerrigan: "How's the serenity? So much serenity..."

Darryl Kerrigan: "See that chimney. Fake."
Valuer: "What's it there for?"
Darryl Kerrigan: "Chaaaaarm!"

Darryl Keerigan: "We're goin' to Bonnie Doon! We're goin' to Bonnie Doon!"
