@NTA That says more chance of rain in the afternoon.
I didn't say otherwise.
Wasn't saying the arvo would be better, but stating my general preference for daytime footy under a cool winter sky
...with free beer served by topless wenches? I wouldn't say no either.

Gallagher is better than Strange wtf, and couldn't they go without Kellow and have 2 big bodies Strange & Gallagher on pine? because the Blues pack is significantly bigger & Christie will likely need to be subbed off again like in the last encounter.

TAB currently has the Blues as $1.80 favs...
Too close to call for me. Look forward to a great game and hope there's no major injuries.

@Mattasaurus Line is at 0.5 pts, so basically a draw.

that's basically it, isn't it. No injuries would be great - it'll be a cracking game anyway

@nzzp not true. I’ll never have Matera in my All Black side until they change the eligibility rules.
I think the second half of your sentence fell off, but don't worry I added it back in.

considering the vast majority of the nation's starting All Blacks are playing, if this game lacks quality then we are fucked.
We still have all those Chiefs ABs to up the quality of our national side...

Yep, doing Mooloos quite a big disservice I think, Chiefs have 10, Crusaders 11, (Blues 13) and Chiefs have lots of potential future AB forwards such as Dyer, Norris, Thompson, McWhannell, even Ah Kauhoi, also Ratima/Roe in halves. Gideon Wrampling likely to be a future AB midfielder.

Ah yes, thank you for those names, the All Blacks are indeed in safe hands.

@Nepia You need to forgive whoever it was that hurt you. Only then will you be free from the pain and will start to heal.
