What planet am I on?
Must have been thinking about Saturday night footy then? -

I hope they're right about Pasifika players being keen to return from Europe and Japan, even if it means that they'll earn less.
It won't happen. It might stop a small number heading overseas though.

6 games into the season and we haven’t had a close contest yet
Closest score so far was the first match - Crusaders beating the Highlanders by 13

@stargazer Clear and concise comments. Good to see.

Yeah just sounds odd when he says "on review" though eh. They were already on review! One thing I didn't consider - did the ref ask the TMO to check the forward pass or did he do that off his own bat?

'Neanderthal rugby straight out of the 1950s': Why Super Rugby Aotearoa 'leaves the Six Nations for dead'
The Six Nations is great for its history and the passion it engenders, not to mention the fact that Scotland periodically lowers a much better team to clinch the Calcutta Cup. The rugby? Not so much.

@bones Haha written like a typical NZ rugby fanboy who thinks we're by far and away the best in the world where no one else comes close. Our comp is a very average standard this year to the point where I think some of the awful Blues sides from 2004-2019 could compete for 2nd place.

@kiwimurph I was replacing them with the current Blues side haha.

Yep, that's good to see. Also good to see that they haven't changed the back out of the hands directive part.
Should be able to have that try as part of the try of the season awards then

It's not even accurate, the ABs attack with kicks all the time these days. Could argue that's boring too, the stereotypes aren't correct anymore
