Orbiting the World of SANZAR Rugby Since 2007
Three rugby fans used to brag about their teams constantly. The All Black fan said, “we’re no.1 and you know it.” The Wallaby fan said, “we’ve won the World Cup twice, so there.” The Springbok fan said, “all we need is a little more passion and we’ll win next time!” The bickering and boasting continued with every Tri-nations, Super 14 and northern hemisphere tour. After one adjective-ridden exchange, the Bok fan said to the AB fan, “you should write a column.”
So I did and here it is.

COPYRIGHT POLICY
I’d like to think I’m fairly generous with the content I put up here. (Some of it has already ended up in someone else’s book, with my blessing.) But nothing ticks me off more than so-called sports fans ripping off entire blog entries and putting them on their own sites. What’s the matter? Are you so unoriginal that you have to pinch my stuff? So here’s the deal for all you blog-scraping slackers out there. I don’t mind if you lift the first 100 words off my blog entries and post them along with a link back to the original source. One hundred words – that’s my definition of fair use. You DO NOT have my permission to post entire entries (with or without a link). If you do, I will put you on my pity-list and poop in your in-tray. If you have a WP blog I will raise merry hell with the Support folk and they will shut you down – read your terms of service. Blogging should be fun. Stealing content – even if you tell the world where you stole it from – just makes me want take my ball and go home.
