Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Jamaica have like 10 gold now (Y) I think, which makes them top 8. And New Zealand arent top 8 :o

Australia's got 79 gold, 64 silver and 64 bronze for a total of 207 medals. Pwnage.

you have to remember that NZ support most of the sports in the Commonwealth Games....there's not the infrastructure for sports like swimming (nor the climate either), athletics, table tennis, boxing, etc, etc....

unless it's rugby union, netball or cricket, you're essentially screwed :roll:

I knew that Van Dijk girl was familiar, she used to play for South Africa. Not a bad recruitment policy, go and get the best player in the World to change nationalities :lol:

The Aussie defenders are shithouse. Fat white girls with no idea.

We got the idea from the NZ rugby team; raiding surrounding islands for their best players.

5 goal game, the gay thing about netball is that it'll probably stay this way.

I don't rate how AB's take players like Rokococo etc from surrounding islands....as for players like all the Samoans etc, they all tend to grow up their entire lives in NZ (Auckland mostly) so you could argue that they're Kiwis, just like you could argue that someone like Carmichael Hunt can now play for Queensland & Australia
