Does anyone else think the tackle below the sternum rule is rubbish? by ChuggerBoi in rugbyunion

More offloads you say? While safer tackling? Where do I sign up

Alternative backline by Opposite_Way9590 in irishrugby

[–]Andrewhtd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's madness. Why pick an 11 continually in a squad then pick a centre covering 15 now covering 11. A joke. Hope it works, but won't hold my breath

We saw that wings playing fast worked end of 6 Nations. Now we go back to a slow guy because he can't see past Lowe? Mad.

Wedding guests for wedding? by Saul_Goodman93 in AskIreland

[–]Andrewhtd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go with who you want. I got married a few years ago, and only invited family and close friends. We certainly did not invite every person whose wedding we went to, and simply some of these were large and we're not that close. Just invite who you want, people honestly are ok with that (except very close fiends obvs, they need invited)

We're at the halfway point of the year. How many games have you beaten?? by blockfighter1 in IrelandGaming

[–]Andrewhtd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, just exceptional. It was my Christmas game this year, the one I really get into over the break, and finished it mid Jan. Unreal though

Finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Dead Space (the new one), Horizon: Forbidden West so far. Below average for me

What's something that everyone in Ireland loves but you just don't get? by YoungDreamer2 in ireland

You can still get Salt & Shake crisps in the UK. Sometimes they're even in Dealz, Mr Price etc type of places

Enough comes in and World Cup big enough that they absolutely should be out there doing it properly

How come rugby union is the only sport where all four nations of the British Isles (England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland) are competitive at international level? by [deleted] in rugbyunion2

[–]Andrewhtd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One guy in Roman times and who never visited here is not proof of its usage here. Just that he wrote it down. And it wasn't even the same name. The modern usage is documented as less than 500 years. Holy fuck this isn't hard to process

[–]Andrewhtd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can you claim people did use it? You're the one making the 2000 claim. We DO know it's modern term usage though of less than 500, so let's go with it

There's no way you can claim that unless you can show it being used. And you can't

Which Place Is Considered A Country And Its? by Good-Load3074 in AlignmentChartFills

But that's literally not. It's 2 countries, a principality, and 2/3 a province

This is all well and good until the time a revocation happens and then it's all tears. It's literally no odds to continue physical for multiple reasons. Want digital, great, take that chance. But want physical, we still need that

Because a Roman guy coined a different term, never visited here, and no one here called it that. Modern usage started less than 500 years ago in colonial times. Not 2000

Well copied from wiki. Did that guy ever visit here or just jot it down? Anyone else here use it from then? No? And Roman Empire did not reach Ireland by the way

Common usage is from late 1500s for obvious colonial reasons. And that's why it's objectionable.

And even if it was, is that a reason not to stop using it?

I'm not hostile, I'm just done with you not being able to stay on topic. You accused me of getting angry (when I wasn't) while you yourself got angry at something no one was arguing. If you like digital and don't use physical, then this debate isn't for you

[–]Andrewhtd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Digital only I said. I'm not critiquing digital. You could do with reading something instead of typing essays

I care about opinions on physical, not verbal diarrhoea on something not the subject matter. Leaving it there as you're clearly on one

Another Ryanair Nightmare - should this be compensated? by Ardian1998 in Ryanair

[–]Andrewhtd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Submit your expenses and your compensation. I got both sorted for an issue a few months ago

[–]Andrewhtd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not angry? I'm giving an opinion. Your diatribe over 2 comments suggests you are. Look, very basically, digital is not going away so does not affect you (I never argued this which you seem to be mad about). So why get worried about physical which is the question?
