2006
I am quite pleased that Christmas and New Year are out of the way. The next couple of months will whiz by and before I know it Super 14 will be starting. Yay!
The Reds have been using the defection of Wendell Sailor to the NSW Waratahs as bit of a marketing tool for Super 14. They've put up posters featuring Sailor in a Tahs jersey with the message: "Turn your back on Queensland? IncREDible!" The Queensland crowd will no doubt give Sailor 'heaps' come the Reds vs Waratahs clash in February. But then again, it has been my experience that the Queensland crowd gives him heaps all of the time....
The Brumbies have started their pre-season training in Canberra, with a swag of players getting ready to step up to the plate to ensure a spot in the Super 14 squad.
Australian rugby fans can get their hands on RWC 2007 travel packages over at Wallaby Travel. The whole shebang 44 day tour will set you back $23,900 (per person - Yikes!) but if you want to nick over to watch the semis and playoff and final on a 10 day tour then you'll only have to part with $12,900 each. Jeepers. I'm thinking that's a lot of dosh to dish out to watch the Kiwis win 'Bill'. There are other options though, and I am always a little bit wary of tour groups in the fear that you might get stuck with people you can't stand and then it's nigh on impossible to get away from them - without forfeiting the money you've paid out.
Later!
