A 6/2 split for the Tahs

Surprised Tizzano is still on the bench

Gamble played Ok against the Canes - IMHO better than expected from what I'd seen previously.

Maybe they're bottling Tizzano up to give him 30 flat out at the end? Will be too late by then of course.

The tahs are in for a spanking if that team performs as it should

If the Blues can defend competently it should be a guaranteed five points.

This isn't death and taxes, this is the Blues.

A guaranteed 5 points for the Blues. Probably the nadir for my career as a tah fan.

We'll always have 96-19. Ah, 2002... before I was married or had kids or any of that shit, and just stressed about rugby.

The good old days ay?

Just kidding, it must be shit as a 'tahs fan at the moment. As a Blues supporter I have some sympathy but we did get the odd win.

Derpus

@nta that was at least a bit of an outlier, rather than the norm.

Plus losses to the Crusaders don't count.

It does seem a bit unfair when most of their team have at least six fingers on each hand (if only Brad Shields was born in Chch) but we all have to deal with it.

I'd rather be a Tahs fan right now than a Rebels fan.

Tahs have a lot of young talent.

Rebels have ?

A decent ground?

Better coffee.

Choat isn't playing club rugby this weekend. Doesn't necessarily mean he's injured though.

@bones Tele'a, Heem, Faiane, Lam.

Forgot that Josiah Maraku is still with the squad.

Lovely Autumn afternoon here, great rugby conditions. Not too hot. Crowd building nicely

KiwiMurph

TJ and Marshall. The punishment on the ears begins.

Some very good carries in there by Akira

My god, this will get ugly.

Waratahs keep them out, so it stays 3-0, but there were some huge gaps there - Christie split them open then there was plenty of space.

This is going to be a massacre.

KiwiMurph

Christie spinning it as soon as he heard advantage is what you want.
