wait I've just paid attention to that graphic. Max Gawn and Dustin Martin are kiwis? Get the fuck out. That's cringey as fuck.

And the other change is the coaches have managed to get the sub back. Despite 4 on the bench constantly swapping, apparently losing a player is the worst thing in the world. It started with a concussion sub, but they have managed to get it for any injury. Stop listening to coaches!
Just wait for players to depart with 'hamstring soreness' late in the 3rd quarter, allowing teams to bring on fresh legs in the final term.
aaaaand a "corked knee" in the first game of the year. What a fucking stupid rule.

If your dad supports the ABs, you are a kiwi. -

If your dad supports the ABs, you are a kiwi.I've said it before. Australian mothers, Australian born children, wear and support All Blacks.
One of my niece's class had a supporters day at school and half of them wore All Blacks gear.
-
Was in jest but I'm sure most of the foreign based kiwis wouldn't object to their kids being called kiwis.

Good win to the Dees yesterday over Freo. Could have been a wider margin had they been more accurate in front of goal, but also credit to Freo for hanging in there and staging a couple of decent fight backs. Was an entertaining game.
And all the more reason to support New Zealand's team, Melbourne, with those two 'Kiwis' in their side, especially big Maxy Gawn. I'll have to look them up on Wiki. Dustin Martin's parentage is well known due to his Kiwi Dad having been deported but I suspect the other guys are similar ie Australian born and a Kiwi parent involved.
-
Ok big Max has two Kiwi parents, was born in Australia when they migrated but did return to Greymouth as a baby before moving back. So to be fair, it's a reasonable link. I'm sure he considers himself to be an Aussie but the parentage is unquestionable and I'd wager there is a pic around somewhere of Max as a giant child wearing an All Blacks or possibly Crusaders jersey.

Possibly not as cringey as the NBA game where Adams was marking Baynes and the comms referenced how rare it would be to see two New Zealanders playing each other in the NBA. Baynes was born in Gisborne but plays for the Boomers FFS.

Baynes is from up here
Also fucking Lions. Sydney? Really?
And I thought Geelong was the team everyone would be laughing at today

I can’t remember the last time we scored over 100 and three different guys with three goal so not relying on Papley to have a blinder , I enjoyed that
