Walloped? Oh totally. We saw how Ireland got hammered against New Zealand and Australia, and how Wales got stuffed when they found form in the second test. If anything, the ELV's would suit Wales, so think before making personal and offensive comments; they seem to be a common trait among South Africans. And yeh, I realise that is hypocritical and ironic in the highest possible order, so don't bother pointing it out ok? 'k.<div class='quotemain'>

I think the UK is just scared of being walloped even more than they are currently. (This is where the testier UK members get ready to post a fiery rebuke to my comments)

Finally, I see us testy UK members aren't allowed to rebut such a twattish claim or else we'll be claimed fiery and out of line. Oh well, go ahead and spout rubbish, I shouldn't expect much more.

Well, who's making "personal and offensive comments now" ay? The UK actually contains many millions of people, its not a single person, perhaps you mistook me. By "UK" i meant United Kingdom (you should know this, you live there), so really i wasn't insulting you or anyone else personally, but rather the Rugby Unions which are so backward and selfish.
Also, who said you aren't allowed to argue back? I certainly never said so. As for spouting rubbish, i feel my comments are fully justified, the Home Nations aren't even going to trial the laws after all.

I know what I said was hypocritical, I even said so in my previous post...
"The UK actually contains many millions of people, its not a single person, perhaps you mistook me."
Fair enough, I've already said I'm annoyed that they weren't even trialled, but I'm bored of crap such as what Steve-O wrote - "How many 40+ point beatings must it take before the Home Nations see that they are being left in the dust in terms of rugby quality.
Shame..." Left in the dust in terms of rugby quality? :lol: I must be the only one who found the Premiership Final and Semi's exciting. Not to mention the drama in the European final and semi's, and quarters. I'd take watching the Heineken Cup under the old laws anyday over watching the S14 under the ELV's, so I don't really care for comments such as those where the posters' in question state their opinion as 'law'.
"Also, who said you aren't allowed to argue back? I certainly never said so."
The part where you said us testy UK members are going to post a "fiery rebuke" which in all fairness is fully justified given what you said. Perhaps I should have worded it better.
"As for spouting rubbish, i feel my comments are fully justified"
I don't see what was justified in your post. Only a bullshit claim stating the UK has pussied out of trialling the ELV's because, deep down, they know that that would only mean harder thrashings at the hands of the SH in their meetings. Seriously, even I would have liked to have seen them trialled for a season, or perhaps longer, but don't be annoying by stating something like that. It's not justified.
