Having supported the warriors through the all the ups and downs its great to see my complete and unwavering support being rewarded with a cracking start to the 2018 season.
Didn’t you copy and past that when the Black Caps play well ( insert year)
And the Breakers.

Warriors have been sold to that US group. Here's hoping they don't fuck up what seems to be a good thing....

Have to say Jazz Tevaga has been awesome these last two weeks. He's 88kgs but is playing as a prop/lock off the bench. You'd think he was at least 20kgs bigger with how well he's tackling and carrying.
He's a player in the old hooker/lock mould. High work rate and aggressive style of play makes him a great option coming off the bench. It also means Luke can stay on the field and focus on the attack while Tevaga does the defensive work.
Both him and Bunty Afoa are two players who can punch above their weight class.

So, after watching the glorious Warriors win on the tv I wandered down with my mate to Brookvale to watch Manly v Raiders - he lives 5 minutes away and is a season ticket holder.
Now, lets set aside for a minute this idiot thought the Warriors game was in NZ otherwise he would have ditched Manly and gone to the SFS.
Anyway, man that was interesting, I thought the northern beaches were quite hoity toity, they call Manly the silvertails, but sheesh the crowd in the members is pretty feral. It's just constant running commentary/abuse of the ref, the Canberra players, the Manly players. I thought a match thread on TSF was parochial but we don't come close to the Manly members. They never see anything wrong with anything Manly do, every knock on is not a knock on, they're never off side, they don't ever deserve a penalty and it's always the opposite for the opposition. And when Manly let in a few tries in the second half they turned on their players worse than NZ turned on John Hart in 1999. I had as much enjoyment from listening to the crowd as I did watching the game although I must admit I went full feral booing BJ Leilua with the rest of the crowd. I really can't stand that guy.
Brookvale reminded me of McLean Park a bit, the main stand and ugly joining end stand look to be like they copied each other.

It took you awhile but you got a Hawkes Bay reference in right there at the end. Well done.

I like to build my stories to reach a peak, TBF, I could have started with "my mate from school in HB"

Mate Ive had to go to and from Manly for the last 2 years for work and I can tell you two things. The hottest women in Australia all congregate in Manly(and I live on the GC) and the hoity toity crowd are just a bunch of rich as fuck bogans.

Hahaha,, I did live their a couple of years. The hottest women who congegrate are often South American/Europeans IMHO - well the ones that looked hottest to me.
TBF, Oz is the land of cashed up bogans - I assume in your line of work you come across lots of them.

It really is a crazy ladder. Dragons, who had big question marks over them preseason, are flying. The fucking Warriors are 4-0. The Tigers were a few seconds from being 4-0, but are still going good at 3-1 (Benji is killing it by the way). Fucking Penrith are 3-1.
Melbourne have lost twice. The Cowboys have lost 3 times. The Roosters have lost twice.
Parra, who were a lot of people's smokeys for the season, are not only winless, but awful. It's always a joy to see a Ricky Stuart side struggling, and the Raiders really are.
