It is that magical time of the year again, when Auckland people get to shed their ugly duckling calipers and emerge from the chrysalis reborn, their butterfly wings affixed to the glorious swan that is The New Zealand Rugby Football All Blacks of New Zealand.

Fairly perfunctory coronation this year for the Death Star stormtroopers. Jags were into it for the first 20 minutes before the Cantabs decided yeah nah its foot-on-throat time.

Poor W.O. He's the only bastard on the whole forum who has a team in the final. my main concern, from a national standpoint, is that the following players arent horribly injured: - the only good Whitelock. all the others have a possibly passable replacement come RWC time

Yeah he's a total poach. Thing is he played so well he pretty much embarrassed Naholo right out of the squad. also the DV thing, ffs, it's a righteous and pious "no dickheads" policy..... right up until some dude displays a preternatural ability to convert half chances in the corner

yeah great story for Weber. pleased for Coltman too, he's really come on. all it takes is Coles to get dinged and Coltman could be closing out some very big rugby football matches this year. sounds like Akira has fucked himself. "Turned up unfit, tired all season" or something according to...

Crotty out injured for RC. Unthinkable. How did it ever come to this. All we need now is show pony SBW to pull up in training (can't say "in a game" because he doesnt do those) with a mild fetlock strain that shuts him down for the rest of 2019 and we can turn the focus to the actual 23...

"I'm back, baby!"

Cartel probably fine tuning their #8 depth chart tonight..... Read Ardie Luke Shitelock Frizzle fuck it why not Papali'i George Whitelock Xavier Rush Fozzie Akira

Jordie does some sloppy casual shit. he seems so disdainful of the opposition. they're not some 1st XV school shmucks dude. They're really good. Hope he's watching from the stands in RWC business end. let him get his triple hat trick in the pool game vs Laos or some shit Reece getting harder...

haha of course the Cantabs win on a 79th min missed Whitelock knock-on Canes cranked the Millenium Falcon up to hyper-warp murder speed but the Death Star withstood the barrage.

Greatest moment in Onehunga history. They should close the school down straight after. Raze it to the ground and convert the land into a gluebag farm. ____________________________________ Back on topic, poor Codie Taylor. Cos' Dane Coles is BACK baby

Nisbo is generally fair and impartial. You're just tetchy TJ's not calling it. TJ must be livid. Furious. Apoplectic. Probably still sitting outside the stadium, head in his hands, tears streaming down his face. Serves him right for turnung up without truosers. Again. I'm just glad someone...

Canes forwards competing much better than I thought they would. Justin Marshart keeps wanking on and on about "why oh why are the Canes kicking ball away, not even competing blah blah" but the tactic looks fine to me. Beats running it out from your own half. Yeah, versus the Cantabs let me know...

I look forward to six months of not seeing this beady-eyed Easter Island zombie fella:

Yeah, whatevs. This is also for teams iconography up on the right there? I look forward to affiliating you with some rando russian botty triumvirate of, say, Afghanistan, Wollongong Uni and, of course, the almightily stupid Auckland Blues

Don't want to create a logjam for the Cantabs brown people quota.

Don't mind some of those Herbie Hancock 80's albums

Sure, I could do with another souvenir postcard for my collection. Maybe take it to the Avatar bet thread with the specific terms of the wager and a customer service representative will be with you "momentarily" as a seppo might say.

Impossible as it is to imagine, it looks like the Blues are going to get EVEN WORSE. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/113610698/the-death-of-club-rugby-in-auckland-is-coming-fast NZ on the path to joining Aus as a nation where the game is dying.
