Poor old TJ he do hoped that the force would win and the crusaders would then rightly be in the the final to then go on and win, whilst some would say it's sad that I look upon TJ this way, just think how sad it is to be so involved in rugby that not only do you live and breathe rugby but your so tainted by your bias that even as a "professional" who is saturated by rugby you still get excited at the remote possiblity that Auckland/Blues might lose but then they don't
A bit like Kirwan then ?
I enjoyed how pained TJ sounded for most of that.
You would appreciate pain being a long time Blues supporter they have put you through some.

Kirwan doesn't commentate during the game.

It's much easier to avoid all that than the actual games.

Which is actually besides the point, as TJ is the main commentary and should be better. His bias is petty and I enjoyed him having to suffer through that tonight.

@chris to be fair he hasn't been such a douche as long as TJ, also to be fair he's said some pretty stupid stuff and really it's a shame on one hand that sky don't rein in the stupid stuff (ie stop turning off subscribers) and on the other hand don't muzzle them because of the crowd
Don't get me wrong I met TJ in an Auckland box once and he seamed very pleased to mingle with everyone after but really when you start hatching possibilities and getting very excited about Auckland losing when it's an unlikely event! Then perhaps after how many years? It might just be time for a wander down to somerset

Agreed terrible but Harrison etc aren’t much better on the other side of the Ta$man.

@chris And A game = a win, I was talking about the game and every game the blues/Auckland play for jeez I actually don't know how long but it's been a very long time, long enough for an employer to notice at any rate

Don’t disagree good to see but win the final and really progress further.
Then next seasons SR will be so good as there are other contenders.
