Do you want our yearly bet (Home and away)?? I think last time it was a $100 shot of whiskey? I'm happy not to do that again.... I can still taste the hangover and that was a year ago +
5 pints of winners choice at winners selected location (in Auckland). (5 pints per match so if we both win a match it's square)
What say you?
gamble responsibly folks

@Frank a lot trimmer than he was during M10. Not quite there fitness wise.
I'm happy for Akira to build into the season, instead of the previous years of grinding him into the ground with no rest. Good for Sotutu too, am a big fan.

$100 shot of whiskey
When we had that bet last time we both wanted to try a top top whiskey. A bottle would have been far too much for a simple sports bet but a shot, while expensive, was doable.
It was a long season, so @duluth had enough time to save..... (It actually may have been one game each and we went and did it anyway, I can't quite remember. What I do remember is drinking too much whiskey and feeling rough as the next day!

Early rounds can be a real lottery anyway regarding refs. They are a bit rusty and the 'new' interpretations in play for the season often need to settle in with some real life examples.
Hopefully it doesn't wreck the game (or season) for one of the teams. -
@nzzp see https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/topic/1205/law-trials-and-changes/242
Not any Law changes but a trial around reporting tackle technique. Usually though, the refs have got together and decided on some slight interpretation changes. Let's hope that they have their eye on halfbacks farting around at the back of breakdowns.

Looks really mobile with that backrow and what a strong bench they have!
-
Any team that can bring the best back in World Rugby off the bench is nailed on favourites...
Not a bad side. Karpik looked out of his depth at this level last year, so hopefully he's got another gear to go to. I still can't believe Wainui gets starts.
Who the hell is the 10?
Otherwise, decent side, should get to within a couple of scores of the early season favourites.

Is ALB coming back from Injury? Slightly surprised Weber isn't starting. Stoked to see DMac Back!!
Are we surprised Cane is starting at 8?? (Or is it once again I am behind in the rugby news over summer)
nah, Cane at 8 is news to me too. We only seem to build opensides in this country, so i guess we have to shoehorn them in everywhere.
DMac being back is cause for a little smile.
