    Welcome to the bandwagon, non-Blues fans. Great to have you all on board, there's plenty of room 🙂

    Since we are collecting tens like the Crusaders used to, I wonder how long Richie has on his contract? Would be a good bench option if BB, Black, DC or Plummer got injured.

    Ha! As we were talking about Dan Carter, when you said Ritchie, I thought you meant McCaw and had gone a bit loopy!

    he's probably a better 10 than some of the dross the Blues have had over the past decade

    What, no mention of world's second best player McClutchie?

    You could get Jimmy Gopperth back. Or Stevie Brett. Ihaiah West perhaps? Or how about Benji?

    Meanwhile in the 2004 Blues v Crusaders R2 replay on SS1, Ali Williams is expressing himself by wearing his 2002 Blues shorts.

    This always annoyed me way more than it should.

    TJ: "Doug Howlett, they're queueing up inside him!!!"

    Ouch. I think one of them was Brad Mika too.

    I can imagine more Blues youngsters having this reaction to seeing DC in their sheds. And it's awesome.

    One of the worst NZ midfield backs I've seen. Awful defence, and could not take the ball to the line at all. Zero physicality and no speed. Baffling that he made the ABs.

    Clearly you ignore my posts, I frequently point this out.

    How could you forget the gold standard - Tasesa Lavea? He’s the guy who ended Carlos’ career in conjunction with Joe Schmidt. It’s the NZ version of curse of the bambino - curse of the Los.

    And his propensity to put in stupid chip kicks and give away possession in good attacking positions used to shit me no end. McAlister used to get a lot of shit for this but Mauger was far worse in my view (especially since he was supposed to be a senior leader in the team)
