Default Rugby in the DR - New DR1 Article!

It takes a special type of individual to play rugby, but rarely do rugby players consider themselves as such. Tough, resilient and strong are words often related to the sport, and rightly so. Players challenge themselves and their minds in marathon games that require more than just fit bodies and broad shoulders.

I don't think it was the WORD Rugby that caused Robert the problem Chris - I think he was worried you were going top burst into full cry of 'If I were the Marrying kind, which thank the Lord I'm not sir .............' or 'Roll me over .........'

Congrats on SA beating Fiji. GB v SA Final?? Yeah ......... right!! ~ Grahame

Robert, when will you do an article on polo or tennis?
I know there's a well known polo team owned by Luis Arturo Carbuccia. He is also the head of the Asociación Dominicana de Polo (ADOPOLO).

My Apologies GH - you are absolutely right to show my error. I should have said Eng v SA rather than GB. I commiserate with you also as it would have been wonderful to see a Murrayfield-Twickers clash.

I hope you can force yourself a small change of heart to support the 'Old Men' of Eng in the semi's but if not ..... 'Lang may ye sporran tickle ye'!! ~ Grahame.
