With no basis in anything, I'd always assumed it was Ranfurly Shield rules.
Meaning that you keep it for the rest of the year...just saying.
Those rules will work against us one day in the future I imagine. Thus the vital importance of not losing to Hawkes is written into the Bay coaching job description...
Personally, If you guys come second, I think the rugby world will be referring to your lot as 'of Plenty'.
Like you'd give up the Ranfurly Shield under the same circumstances

It's not like you're playing for a decent title. All you are playing for is to play against more of the same teams next season. It's no thrill

There is a trophy though.

We wore that with our beers, this time last year.

Can't be that important, you haven't even hit 50% of wins since the NPC restructure. (Hmm, probably should have checked the results of every year before making this claim).

If you're feeling a bit left out, like you can't contribute, Magpies captain Ash Dixon is from Chch originally ....

I suppose job descriptions are more wish list than reality.

Christchurch! Does that mean we can change your logo and consult on a new name for Hawkes?

Noted ... I'm going to reference this in my next discussion with the CEO as their are aspects of my job I would not like to be doing!

Your captain is "from" Gosford, Australia - Bay of Plenty Waratahs has a nice ring to it.

I have a minion to proof read my work stuff ... I guess I'll need him to proof my forum-ing now so I can avoid a smackdown from @booboo.
-
@Nepia That might not go down so well.
"This prick on the internet is hassling me about spelling and grammar, could you proof this? Otherwise this other bloody corrector is going to annoy me too."
As Boobs would say, "we're helping".

Hahaha, although, I work in a Chinese organisation, the proofing my minion does for me pales in comparison to some of the other stuff he does.

I hate to think.

Im up for playing the title every match, Raeburn shield style, not Ranfurly Shield.....The Bay-Burn Shield
As clearly noted loser of this game will cop lots of banter either way..

Hmm, maybe I need to emphasise, I don't work for a Chinese govt organisation ... although I'm 97.26% certain they're monitoring this discussion!

The Bay-Burn Shield
That's good.
@Nepia said in Mickey Mouse Final: The Bay vs Hawkes:

Quite likely Eddie.

Why don't they make mitre 10 cup one big competition like super rugby and top 8 for quauterfinial spots

Ha Ha True @Donsteppa , however charity would be giving them a point start and I am definitely not suggesting that!
I'm sure we will need the game just as much as some stage and I would hate to have this thread hanging over us

The thing is, I don't mind the banter. If the moderators hadn't (ab)used their privileges to change things, you wouldn't have heard me about it.
Oh, you are serious?
Cute

I think the fair thing to do is we each drop a Wellington origin import ... you guys drop Tiatia and we'll drop Joel Hintz.

what a strange thread this is

@Nepia I have already donated this year, no more charity thanks

Being a BoP Mafia should help future proof any such ethical considerations

TBF, I think @Stargazer avctaully adheres to the rulz and calls the Magpies Hawkes ... something I will never do.
