| nope - but it sounded like that english thing of ... "we might win but top 5 is OK and go for the win next year" (beating the aussie) rather than "i hope he beats the aussie(mat mladin i guess) and by a HUUUUGE margin" OK i have to own up that being a kiwi we have a natural rivalry with our australian neighbours (where is Tp996 when you need him?) except for troy bayliss who is pretty damn good anyway i guess coming from a small country where being the underdog is normal i see the people taking on real challenges as good to support. Hodge is taking on a whole lot of stuff - the other riders know the tracks, bikes, teams etc etc GO HODGE GO! you probably feel the same flanker - i would admit that maybe you are more realistic than me though? |
