David Campese was one of the greatest Walllabies, but his latest attack on the game is incorrect.
I get, as All Black Andy Haden once said to me, that the three great traditions of rugby are shaking hands with your opponents before and after the game, offering three cheers for the ref and, once retired, standing around saying everything was much better in your day.
Seriously, Campo. There is no doubt the game is struggling but you really think this helps, or is remotely true? A “fish rots from its head” implies either corruption or pestilence pure, and not only is neither remotely true it is an outrageous slur on good people doing their level best to sort things, in very difficult circumstances.
No, David. It’s because your endless ranting – what I used to call “acidic bubbling” where everything you say, burns – does indeed grab the odd headline, but it is ultimately very bloody dull. The question is whether he is on his way to being the Messiah that rugby paid for. There has been some muted criticism of him being thrown in the deep end whereby he will be playing for Wallabies before having played a match of Super Rugby,. If the Wallabies are to be competitive against the Lions next year it will need the likes of Suaalii to be world-class and the more experience he has the better he is likely to be. So let’s get started now.Well I never.
“Back in 1939 I listened with my Dad to ABC Radio as Old Rowley won #MelbourneCup at 100 to 1,” Mr Compton wrote. “Dad said it would happen again next century. So today I backed Knights Choice at 150 to I & have him in trifecta with 2 at 100 to 1. Am about to make huge killing. Go & do likewise.”allowing him to tweet afterwards. “Will toast Dad with finest #whisky. As fearless punter on #MelbourneCup I put $10 on Knights Choice & won on $1700.
