Cheeky beggar, Doc! We had a couple away too! 
Seriously though, these shield matches are really what Rugby is about I think.
Anyway, two good games with lucky results really... Well done to them all. Wonder how the Aussies and the Argies will go? I reckon it's great to have Argentina stepping up to wear big boys' trousers.

Well Drl, if they wanted to take the shield home then they shouldn't have sent what "You" are calling a second rate team, should you?
To the "Victors" go the "Spoils" roll on the next lot!

Just bought in the Lawnmowing washing
of DH and one of them is a t shirt with 100 years of Ranfurly Shield Rugby 1902 to 2002 on it.
That makes the Shield games 110 years old now 
I see on the sleeve it says limited edition with a number on it.
Maybe the T shirt is a "one off"collectors Item
and he may not have to ever mow the lawns again..
Cheers Kai
