the moral of this story is what not to do if a bird shits on you...

@antipodean thank you

@Machpants strong recommendation. Can’t get over them basically being NZ’s equivalent of the Sharks. Even have a du Plessis. And for reasons I don’t now really remember, I can’t stand Riccitelli.

supporting the canes is only for people who love the idea of a wank, enjoy the wank, but then stop before they finish and walk away ultimately unsatisfied.

@Bones there’s some strong arguments being made for the blues. If they lose in an agonizing way this weekend, you’ll know that I convinced myself that Michael Jones and Zinzan neutralized the corruption of Fitzpatrick, Robin Brook, Flavell etc. Etc etc.

@Smuts plenty of room on teh bandwagon too. From only 8-10,000 to nearly 40,000 as soon as the team gets successful ... get on board I say!

@Smuts oh you can't ignore the Noord Shore.

@nzzp I think blues fans have suffered long enough. I’m quite tempted to inflict myself on the crusaders. I think I might enjoy watching those bastards lose a heartbreaker to a dodgy call.

Shit there's lots of Chicken Run Saffas in NZ. Not one All Black out of all that lot though.

[Smuts]

@Nepia you would have thought you would have got at least one decent tightfive out of them

Andrew Mehrtens was born in Durban so qualifies as a Saffa.

[Bovidae]

There's not that many in SR is there? Nel, Riccitelli and Goosen. Anyone else?

I don't count him, he didn't immigrate here, he just came for pro rugby. And he was average. And he played for Harbour. And he was a Ginga.

[Tim]

@Bones Ha ha. Well played.

[Tim]

@Nepia He stayed in NZ, and works as a software guy in Auckland now.
