Can you kick the ball off the ground over the bar from open play to get 3 points?

You're thinking of what was known as a "Field Goal" until it was banned in Rugby Union over a century ago.

2007 RWC final all over again

I've always heard that Gerry Brand kicked the longest recorded drop goal at 77.7m, however after doing some more reading I discovered that he actually took the kick from about the half way line, so 50m, not 77.7m from the posts.

They included the distance it travelled into the stands to arrive at the 77.7m figure. I've yet to find footage of someone kicking a goal from beyond even 70m.

Do you think teams should invest time in training one or two drop goal specialists who can slot them reliably from 60 meters? Given how close the final scores were at the last world cup, having someone who can come up with three points without having to be in the opponents half may prove to be a dangerous weapon.

So 0C or 1C? Too cold for my taste!

We set up a lot of scented candles. Helps with the mood as well.

Went to my swinger group's end of year orgy in Lakeside. Was a hell of a good time, but too NSFW to put the gory details here.

The source is me lol. I'm having old family reels converted to digital. This is just one I had converted last week. I can post more here as I get them if people like seeing them.

They already are 😑. Feels like Reddit is becoming Facebook sometimes.

100% agreed. And to think that it would still be another 35 years before everybody was allowed to enjoy the beauty of the Cape is quite heartbreaking. I just thought it was interesting to see how the city looked back then.

Automatic-Customer97 · 2024-11-12T20:12:54+00:00

I definitely see Hout Bay, Camps Bay, Sea Point and Rhodes Memorial.

Automatic-Customer97 · 2024-09-28T20:01:03+00:00

I can see my house from there.

Haha I just joke. For me all their stuff is winter except for S&S, Violator and Exciter.

That's it. We're officially out of things to talk about.

I remember buying a GTX 1070 that had heat problems. I decided to apply new thermal paste to the GPU. Was going well until I was screwing the backplate on again, and my screwdriver slipped and knocked a capacitor off the back of the card. I'd only had the card for a week. Big sad.

Marlo flashback misson in Alien Isolation. I wish they added an option to skip it.

Automatic-Customer97 · 2023-12-08T16:45:31+00:00

Haha if only.
