 I would hope his wife leaves him

why? maybe she told him to go get what he needs. Just cause one side is getting laid elsewhere doesn't mean the kids have to live in a broken home.

Surprise surprise, a man who is paid to promote the Olympics promoted the Olympics. Why is this even news?

Mr England would have better spent his energies telling his own government to get his own country's Covid measures sorted first. How are they going to hold trials and training camps? Are they basing selections on 2019 performances?

what a shambles.

Bring on Paris 2024 and have Tokyo2028. 2020 is munted.

Inept management across the board. Almost every other country with professional sports has established bubbles and PLAYED matches. In tre Japanese lets suck wind through our teeth and wait fashion Osamu Ota and company have knocked this ball on again.

Amy potential momentum left from RWC2019 has well and truly been kicked out on the full and the ball has been lost in a sea of leaderless blazer wearers.

How will Kieran Read clash with Beaden Barrett? They play different roles and it's extremely unlikely that they will even get near each other. Sometimes the hype merchants need to chill out.

Bugger I was hoping for some local rugby.

Super Rugby Australia please don't screw it up. If Covid breaks out again go into bubbles and stay there.

very good must mean different things in different cultures.

It's deep fried frozen chicken that is then left under a heat bulb for a long time. It's cheap and fast but good?

Don't leave the NRL out of the article please. Olsen Filipaina the first Pacific Island star got called all kinds of stuff, by his team mates and coaches!

He would go home from trainings crying but his mum wouldn't let him quit.

He laid the table for a league that is over 40% Polynesian now. As late as last year NRL commentators were hamming up Polynesian players names on live broadcasts.

chances he had a heart attack.

chances are the police did more than just handcuff him.

chances are nothing much will change vis-à-vis suspects being pinned down and held till they stop resisting.

chances are this was a medical issue and a well trained EMT could have helped prevent this mans death.

RIP and condolences.

Try saying "we don't use Jp parts in our cars" and wait for the Jpanese to cry foul.

Posted in: SANZAAR boss Marinos named new Rugby Australia chief See in context

if anyone can put Australian rugby back on track it is him and if he can not do it, better close the door on Australian pro rugby because nobody will be able to do better

So why didn't he do it for Super Rugby?

Talk about falling upwards, only in Australian Rugby.

Marinos probably going to put all his eggs in the Japanese basket.

safer than the clusterfest that is UBEREATS. Seriously dangerous riders that have to take risks to try and make some money and a company that takes NO RESPONSIBILITY for injured or damged third parties. Japan would be a better place with no Ubereats.

Time local towns paid younger folks to do this work.

But old folks are very independent and don't like to ask for help.

If your employer has a dress code, you follow it, period.

So a Sikh can never work in a company that bans hats?

Why can't employers show respect to cultures and religions? You know like they ask their employees to propagate.

Society has a process for these things, go to the police.

Arai said she initially thought of keeping the alleged sexual assault to herself, thinking police in the town were connected to the mayor and wouldn't handle her case.

And she would most likely be correct.

Kuroiwa should have told her to file the complaint not have her driven out of the assembly. like you said society has a process for these things, go to the police.

Burning Bush, you have the fact that she is paid to only do LANGUAGE wrong.

She is also paid to raise "internationalism" by exposure to foreign language and CULTURE.

when did internationalism stop being a word in Japan?
