Super 12 tipping Round 2

Jethro · Feb 23rd, 2002, 08:56 PM

Chiefs vs Crusaders

The chiefs lost at home the Crusaders won at home...could go either way.

Highlanders vs Sharks

The Highlanders are hard to down at the House of Pain

Brumbies vs Cats

The Brumbies are even harder to beat at home

Reds vs Blues

Are the Blues back, this game should determine it. The Reds need to win.

Stormers vs Waratahs

Can the tahs win away from home again, Stormer may get this one.

Bulls vs Hurricanes

The worst performed team in Super 12 history against the most erratic team in Super 12.

Auckland Blues

Crusaders - the south boys are on the rampage, expect small
towns to be pillaged in the Waikato region

Highlanders - 30k Students can't be wrong

Brumbies - them cats are dog meat

Blues - they have that look of old, check their new winger

Stormers - Lets get the crash going early this year Waratahs and
save your supporters late season pain

Hurricanes - too much attacking flair, but then again the forwards.

**DragonFly** · Feb 24th, 2002, 06:17 PM

1) Crusaders
2) Highlanders
3) Brumbies
4) Blues
5) Waratahs (Gonna stick with 'em.)
6) Hurricanes

Jethro · Feb 24th, 2002, 09:05 PM

Could be an interesting round. The Blues and Waratahs looked good, the Brumbies look like they are missing their Wallabies, and the Hurricances look like making it a long season.

Who are we missing

Beaker
Surf Demon

Anyone else. Interestingly can't seem to get any of the kiwis involved

Chiefs

Highlanders

Brumbies

Blues

Stormers - refuse to pick more than one aussie team per round

Hurricanes

**DragonFly** · Feb 25th, 2002, 08:04 PM

Hello there Steel Kiwi....

you're the first kiwi I've come across on this board, 'sept Jethro of
course.....but he doesn't count - he's been here so long now he's
been corrupted and is now almost an aussie

I'm sure Jethro will be thrilled another kiwi on the board to talk about the rugga

**Steel Kiwi** · Feb 25th, 2002, 08:22 PM

Well Jethro moving to Oz raised the average IQ in both countries, can't claim credit for that line was Piggy who thought of it...

Jethro is starting work with us next week...god our standards have gone down hill...employing an aussie kiwi, is there no end to what l have to endure.

Still another cuz, to help keep the aussies in line eh..but if he even mentions support for that team with a rat as a mascot, he gets the arse....

Only kidding, looking forward to having him on board, and the wealth of expierance he brings with him.

Hmmm... you must be in the gay-porn business then, 'cause that's about the extent of Jethro's professional experience...

Sorry, did I offend your kiwi sensibilities?

It was really a hack on Jethro, not you, so don't get too upset...

**DragonFly** · Feb 25th, 2002, 09:03 PM

Just ignore him Steel Kiwi.......it's a stooooooooopid on going joke
that those two and BeachBum have.....

Besides he's only saying that because Jethro's not currently
on line to defend himself

Just checking Blue

You know your aussie sense of humour is just way over the head of us poor dumb kiwis, so just making sure that you were joking there....oh and at this stage we have no plans of moving Jethro to our Canberra office...they have sheep down there, and it would present too much temptation to him.

Got your answer in General VB Questions which resolved my issue, what in hell were those other guys talking about, left a thanks but something really odd is happening in there.

Those other blokes were talking about a different tab control. There is an older type than the SSTab, but it is a pain in the arse, so don't bother looking into it.

**Steel Kiwi** · Feb 25th, 2002, 09:39 PM

Oh, okay then. Am just doing some modifications to an older application, and have no idea what l am doing really. So thought l would pop in here, have a cup of tea with the Brits, a beer with the aussies, and what ever the hell they drink in Europe..

Got to go check my other question and then get back to work. 3 hours so far adding a "New" button to a tab can you believe. Will save the rest of the modification for Jethro...hehehehehehehe

Keep putting in the wrong language code lines in the click event.

**rjlohan** · Feb 25th, 2002, 09:44 PM

What exactly is your business? What company is this?
Just curious.

Our company is called PRISM and is based in Sydney. We have been going for approx 14 years, and are fully home grown. Currently undergoing massive growth stage, with new employees being recruited as we speak (3 in the last month for staggered starts).

Basically we are a master var for IBM U2 databases and related products. But we also out souce for a number of fortune 100 companies. We do not as such have software products, but will write applications as clients require.

That's about it...pretty boring really, ask Jethro what a U2 database is, as l have to split and finish this work (got a site meeting at 3.30).
