Way back in July - a writer by the name of Steve Deane for the New Zealand Herald had the following to say for himself.
"Then again, who says anonymity has to mean mediocrity? Well me, actually. If these guys do better than 11th I'll resign, shave my head and spend the rest of my days on an avocado orchard in Nepal watching re-runs of Matthew Ridge reality TV programmes.
Prediction: 11th. Maybe 10th. Gulp." Time to front up Steve - we are looking forward to the reports from the avocado orchard in Nepal on the re-run's - hopefully the quality will be better than the garbage that masquerades as your Rugby articles.
For everyone's enjoyment of this moron from Auckland's view on rugby in the provinces - we have posted the link to the original article. Air NZ Cup preview: Hawke's Bay - Friday July 27, 2007 Maybe it is time that Steve stopped stropping himself over Auckland's team and learnt that there are other Unions out there - trying bloody hard to put together competitive rugby teams against the Tight 5 Super 14 based Unions. Deane is patently clueless to the record that Peter Russell has been working on for the past 5 or so years with the Rugby teams he has had under his charge. A nice flip side to this Steve 'Precious' Deane article was the spray that Ian Smith launched on him during the Magpies game against Waikato during the weekend. While it was a little over the top from local boy Smithy - still - was having a good chuckle when Smithy let rip - the response from Mr Precious in the Granny Herald made him come across like a right proper chunt from Auckland. Here is the response from Mr Precious Steve Deane: Let me just get my doggy doo -Monday September 24, 2007 Stuff your conventions - we love a good slagging match - espcially between people in the media. |
