Rugby heading back to ABC TV

Taking their cues from the Raiders and their shockingly named newsletter (The Crusade), I believe the team is to be called ‘The Pillagers’.

I like that name. Its snazzy and it represents all the fat, dopey, bum sniffing slobs that stink up the sheltered workshops that may, or may not be representative of the various public service outlets around the palce.

I have heard that the ACT team will be a Brumbies A side, similar to what played in the rum cup last year.

In which case, why don’t we recommend to the ARU that they call the team ‘The RiotACT’?

whoo hoo! ’bout time there was something btn Super 14s & premier rugby (also broadcast by our beloved aunty). Get the impression the ACT team doesn’t have a name yet.

According to Rugby.com.au

The Australian Rugby Championship will involve eight teams from Western Australia, the ACT, Victoria, NSW and Queensland. The three teams from New South Wales have not yet been named, but they will represent three geographical areas:
Sydney: playing at North Sydney Oval
West Sydney: playing at Parramatta Stadium
Central Coast: playing at Central Coast Stadium.

In Queensland, the Brisbane River will form a geographical divide between the two teams. The Sunshine Coast Stingrays, Norths-QUT, Brothers, Wests, GPS and University will play at Ballymore. The Easts, Souths, Sunnybank, the Gold Coast Breakers and the Country Heelers will play at the Gold Coast Stadium at Carrara.

Canberra, Melbourne and Perth will have their own stand-alone teams.
