Boring as hell, true!
Still at least we can rely on the ABs to bottle it next year

i think maybe you miss the point coops it is not about northern hemisphere rugby compared to the southern hemisphere game, it is about compareing rugby to rugby leauge.it is saying that Rugby is slow and boring, men falling over and a masive pile up in the middle of the pitch and when i watch the NRL compared to oh lets say the premiership, well i am starting to find myself agreeing with the article.
I must admit i am finding it harder to get up at stupid am to watch that dross that is served up in the premiership, the leauge is much faster and more entertaining than i would like to admit.
i have watched the six nations this year and on the whole found it rather boring and i enclude all the teams in that not just England, oh lets get the ball and punt it 50 metres or so. i never thought i'd say it but leauge is more entertaining and more exciting than watching rugby. The article is not about who will choke or win the world cup in 2011, it's about which sport is more entertaining, when you watch the guys he mentions in this article well i must admit i dont think there's one rugby player that even comes close.

Well bill it's not just the leauge, but rugby in generalis a lot more exciting over here, it's just the atmosphere which is pants, except at the leauge which does have a decent buzz about it. infact were going to the game tomorrow.

Give the premiership a chance. Now the weather's getting better and some of the pitches are improving we can expect to see a few good games.
