[Sully]

At least NZ has no dew! Australia is plagued with it! Destroying games everywhere.

Repeat of the fogbowl then. Isaia Toeava could be brought in to dispence advice on how to play the fullback position in such conditions. Who could forget the magisterial impunity he brought to the Canes custodial slot during the Fogbowl of 1866.

Last night it was bad enough for them to suspend the horse racing next door to AMI but they're not expecting a repeat (that said, no-one predicted the Great Fog in '06 so here's hoping).

Plays havoc with the Synergy, too.

If they played at Mt Smart they'd have a dewish banking conspiracy on their hands.

Sam Anderson Heather!

He’s never had a super rugby contract in his career (still doesn’t) and here he is going to play in a super rugby final.

It’s his 3rd super rugby cap of his 12 year rugby career.

Here’s hoping codie Taylor doesn’t go down early.

Alternatively, here's hoping Codie Taylor goes down after about 30 with a relatively minor injury and Sam comes on and has a belter.

Regardless - how great is that. Always nice to hear a battler get their chance to shine.

Did you watch the road to the finals last night WOB? It was on Fox over here and I see even the Saffa 'expert' had a synergy!!

As of mid-morning AMI is officially sold out for the first time in God knows. Who knows, they may even get the big screen up if it's not too windy. Shit even the NZHurld recognises that Christchurch deserves better.

Looks like a fog-free night in Cheechee:

Joe Moody with foul play... huh

 

[cyclopath]

Classic Marshall fuckwittery - "Decent head clash between 2 tight forwards, that won't faze either of them. Well, actually Moody is receiving attention"
So, tight forward skulls are supplied with internal dampers so brains don't accelerate / decelerate and lead to concussions. The guy is a Grade A twit.

That scrum penalty showed the difference between Gardner and Jackson. Gardner sees the Lions have popped up first and doesn’t blindly award a penalty to the attacking team because he has no idea how the scrum works.

 

[Up the Guts]

OH WOW

 

[ACR]

There's no substitute for actually being able to play rugby.

“Yes boy” also makes an appearance

You know you’ve made it as a ref when Smithy and Co praise you for binning a Cantab.

'The Lions can win this game' said some idiot who's never seen Rugby

The mute button makes an appearance once Marshall starts foaming at the mouth.
