Still a pointless use of the word but so is learnings
Don't start me.
What was wrong with lesson, or even lessons? A perfectly serviceable word.
Fuckwits everywhere, mutter, mutter. You'll find me in the GOM thread.

@machpants I have seen defection used in that context before, but I think it was during the M10 Cup last year on Stuff.

I'm with @Snowy, it was wrong then, it's wrong now.

@machpants Where? I've never seen it before. Hinton loves American sports; is it common in American sports media?
Maybe it is in UK media? I am certainly aware of having read it before. Still a pointless use of the word but so is learnings
Learnings is the worst.

Not in UK. Mind you when someone is grassed in the tackle they are said to hit the floor, rather than ground.

I am starting to see what others having been seeing about Papalii. I do wonder what position will be his best in the long run, especially at AB level. He seems a cross between a 7 and a 6 to me.
Great guy to have in a RWC squad. Like a cross between Kaino and Cane. Wouldn't be upset to see him start at 6/7 if Cane or whoever the 6 is was injured. If he goes ok at 8, he could take Ardie's bench spot when he leaves after the RWC...

hopefully this was a learning conservative selection. We've only got to do two things to win the comp remember
- get to final
- win final
No chance of a home final now, so you may as well beat the crusaders once only. Kind of like France v the ABs in RWC; it only takes one good game

Ofa T signs on for 4 more years with the Blues:
Major signing as Tuungafasi extends time with Blues and NZR until 2024
All Blacks and Blues prop Ofa Tuungafasi has signed a new contract with New Zealand Rugby (NZR) and his Blues club, it was announced today.
Wonder how many more reckless cleanouts he can do in that time?
10? -
