@stargazer
Being sarcastic/ironic about the UK press. One of the major UK papers famously accused NZ of poaching Kev Mealamu from Tokaroa....Isn't Oakura one of the sister islands of Tokoroa? Still, Durban probably isn't that close to either
was that Oakura from the Taranaki Islands or Oakura from the Republic of Northland?

Fairly excited! Got 18 of us doing a 'undy 500' stag doo. The stag doesn't even know its on this week. He gets picked up from work on Thursday flown to chch then everyone else rolls in Friday. Two vans full to pub crawl down to Dunedin.
Brewery tour and strippers Saturday then some old school scarfie behaviour before the game. I will be checking this thread on sunday to see what happened at the game I was at.
On the plus side he is a die hard AB's fan. He is wearing an old wedding dress Friday but we have got an embarassing outfit for him on Saturday....
He has to go to the game in full Wallabies kits (green and gold face paint) with a aussie cork hat and a banner that bags the all blacks (or talks up the wallabies).
Any good ideas on what to put on the banner....so far all we have it 'bring back quade' 'McCaw is a cheat'

I'd disown people that attempted to do that to me.

So the real question is if I am going to lose a friend over this what should we write on the banner to make it fully worth it.

Akira gets a start surely?
He’s at least got runs on the board by playing well in super rugby, where Frizell has barely played 80 minutes of super rugby.Yup, without even mentioning the massive shift he put in for the Maori v the Lions. I have absolutely no doubt about his ability at test level.
Where though? I think he is more an 8 than a 6 now. Does LW move to blindside or get dropped.
My preference is that AI gets a run at 8 but we need more than LW at 6. Maybe roll the dice and have two rookies with LW on the bench?
It's a pity that we have to be finding a future player because if we want a strong experienced player that won't let the side down I would be quite happy for JK or Messam to come back to fill a gap.Why go backward. Let’s move on and build. Don’t understand the looking back mentality.

Something about McGrub?

Maybe just a subtle fern banner 'whens the team being named?'

@magpie_in_aus 'four more years' should go down well in Dunners 😁. Even though we've moved past that burn it's a beauty.

How about something to really rile up the locals.... 'Colin Hawke was right'

Meet you at Maccas?

Oh please do that!

Depending on the amount of abuse you want him to cop a reference to Folau and his beliefs would go down like a lead balloon.
"Mccaw is going to hell"
"God hates the ABs"
"God is on our side"
"Izzy was right"That way you can offend everyone.
Jesus I would nearly disown myself for that. Bloody good though.

Given that it's a match against France and he is dressed as an Aussie:
"When Phil Kearns and I were lovers we had a ball in gay Paris".

Phil Kearns is right.

Phil Kearns is right.
Phil Kearns: His kid had it coming.

That's harsh. Did his kid live?
