Anyone else watch this on TV3??
I think it's going to be a really interesting and good program. I like the balance of humour and serious re health issues. Looks like they are addressing stuff across the board, fitness, diet, drink, mental health etc, especially in the Maori/Island cultures, which is great. Will definitely tune in next time.

I've recorded it, gonna see what it's like

Pita Alatini hasn't aged a day and looks like he could step into an AB jersey tomorrow. Troy Flavell is in fantastic nick too, especially compared to his best mate Cribb who has really gotten out of shape. In the day it'd be hard to separate those two as pure athletes but now ? absolutely no comparison. Goes to show the value of keeping functional and active.
Kees Meeuws is even more enormous as is Eroni Clarke and Piri Weepu. Loads of work for the fitness trainers for that bunch. I don't think they've missed too many feeds over the years.
The banter and laughs were top quality, some real characters and you could tell they were all thrilled to catch up with eachother again.

Shows like this can actually be a life saver for some guys i reckon. I follow Piri on insta and he's doing work! But he also blew up pretty huge 😬

Did he what ? Shocking for a guy not yet 40.
Cracked me up when he asked if the machine had been calibrated right though haha.

@Paekakboyz honestly, I think this kind of thing, where older dudes can be real about fitness and health and mental health is gold. We always see shows about the 20 somethings and bodies aren't the same after 35 in terms of bouncing back at all. Much harder to lose weight, keep the rolls off from the gut etc.

For some of them I think injuries woulda made it tough to keep fit too.

Meeuws is above criticism in my view, so please leave him alone.

I wonder if he's still a machine in the gym? I suspect he could still throw some big weights around.
-
but we saw what happened to Piri when he was in the AB's, so you can only imagine what would happen when he was no longer being driven by that black jersey and paid alot of money to keep fit(ish)
I've series linked it, so will watch it in a couple of weeks.
-
That was pretty entertaining and interesting. Bit of a shock for some of those guys when they did the metabolic ages.
Eroni Clarke is 7 years older than Sir Ted, I think.
Some pretty funny stuff too.
Hey Ted, you'll be able to tell Raewyn she's sleeping with a younger man.
Ted: She won't believe this rubbish!

I think prop forwards always retain a certain amount of muscle strength. I think there is an intrinsic strength to these guys that never leaves. When was the last time you saw a former front rower whose now rather svelte?
