Yes, it was a game for the ages. Had it recorded on my sky box for some time and have watched it quite a few times !
You're thinking of 2014. Or possibly 2004. Weren't any skyboxes in 95 so it's probably not that peach. Unless your national broadcaster plays it Sundays to show schoolkids the path to righteousness?

@Nepia No - pretty happy not to have him at all, I think.
We'll take him even if he doesn't have that new car smell. Also if you aren't going to use MacKenzie we'd be happy to turn his motor over.
While we're at it, we're prepared to take a punt on that older model you've got up on blocks, Whitelock. Just what we need for our unstoppable All bLocks strategy.
You can have them all back in November. Fraid Sam will be run into the ground but the other two will have hardly any extra miles on them.

You realise I'm right here
You?
I thought you were the Vice-President of the Mako fan club, with your love of Hunt, Jordan, Strange et al?!!!

Could easily be in for a nasty surprise!
This, I really can't see us winning this. Yes, we did well against Arg, but they were awful. As soon as Arg started to click, and our bench (even worse this time) came on we were in trouble.
I'm a bit more optimistic in that: (a) I have quite a lot of faith in Big Tamaiti. It's hard to shift such a massive man and I don't think anyone bettered him in Super rugby. I think he might be an upgrade; (b) We can hopefully bring on our lesser lights from the bench later, or not at all; and (c) the starting XV looks pretty strong.
Interesting to be reminded in that interview with him that he’s never faced an SA SUPER side even. That still feels very odd for a new AB cap!

actually we think you are wrong here! (even off the bench I think Jordan is a point of difference/impact weapon).

You're not wrong. There's not many others that can fuck up 3 opportunities, gobsmackingly nail another one out of nowhere and be so sought after. I shall dub him Welia Jorsaga.

Enjoying hearing from Schalk.

@Mattasaurus I would swap him with most of our comms to be honest

Wonder if the ref will let the Boks slow things down as much as they have done the last few years?

which old fluffybunny at the back in 15 jerseys will cost their teams more?

Was just thinking the same thing - how the Abs adjust to the NH style of refereeing is very important... not just for tonight.

Here we go, come on the good guys!
