BREAKING: Blues Forfeit Tonight’s Game After Starting On The Guinness At 9:30am
*Posted on March 17, 2017 by thaicastle1 in Sports // 0 Comments
Tana Umaga, coach of the Blues, has hosted a press conference to announce the team are “sloshed” and won’t be appearing tonight at AMI Stadium for their game against the Crusaders.
“The boys got on the piss around 9:30am thinking that they’d need some luck of the Irish tonight, and unfortunately have ended up drinking a keg of Guinness between them” he told Thai Castle.
“It’s St Paddy’s Day, and like the rest of New Zealand, out Irish heritage becomes really important on 17 March. Prattley is dressed like a leprechaun, and Ranger is smoking some four leaf clovers”
“Brooo, I … what, woah whoops”, George Moala told us, while urinating on his own shoes. “We realised we were fucked tonight, so thought, why not get fucked up early”
It is understood that Dan Carter was here early on, but drove home after “just a few”.
The Crusaders are considering playing a sevens match among themselves, for the Crusaders fans who have already purchased tickets. Both of the Blues supporters will receive refunds.*

Be interesting how Hall goes up against his former side. A point to prove no doubt.
Interesting strategy used by Razor to rotate the halfbacks each week. Both have looked better coming off the bench. Hopefully Hall doesn't try to do too much and stays calm.

@ACT-Crusader No surprise really that he'd start Hall against the Blues and hope for a "point to prove" game from him.
Overall I've thought Hall's looked a bit better than Drummond - though he's had more time, so far.
Long term I really like Enari, but the game he came on he threw pretty much every pass at the receiver's feet. That he even got on the field seems to bode ill for Fukofuka - though I've never seen anything from him to suggest he's the answer.

I'm hopeful Francis will give the Blues a better chance - he can defend, he takes the line on, is more physical and doesnt sit in the pocket and his general kicking game is a bit more consistent than West, he also has a combo with Pulu from Counties. Don't think it will be enough but I think he'll direct the Blues around better than West last week, which isn't saying much.

Havili (?) very lucky to stay on the field after that challenge on Duffie in the air.
Hahaha nope. Ok now i understand why you think TJ is so biased when i can't see why...It's not TJ.
Parsons is not so flash at the offload eh.

Tuipolotu a beast so far

That was a bit shit. Bridge scrambling along the ground for the ball should have been penalised, ends in a penalty against the blues.
But anyway, can someone point out to me what Johnson is saying that's so biased against the blues? I'm genuinely curious as i can never seem to figure it out.

Crusaders getting done in mid-field and out wide.
