A Robertson, Rangi team looks really good right now. I wonder how they get on? Played together, etc.
mediocre All Blacks make good coaches?
Was more "unsuccesful coaches don't necessarily get better", but I can go with it (I'd give Rangi a better than mediocre though).

I can hear this buzzing noise...
Might be from Christchurch?
Are you sure it isn't flies in your cellar? The weather is warming up now, you should take more care.
No, I removed all the cantabs long ago. Haven't had flies since.

Would have been a little funnier if they didn't overdo the Chiefs thing. Considering there are (rightly) fuck all in the team, and two of them in Cane and ALB have been standouts.
His main blindspot seems to be picking too many Hurricanes, and shoehorning them in.
Well The Chiefs players bit was meant to be a laugh at supporters who think there's a bias against their local team/S15 franchise in AB selections
The thing was my attempt to take the mickey out of the current situation after someone suggested A Day In The Life on Fozzie, a la the ones from the 2005 Lions tour. Doubt if I could get anywhere near their standard.

Every one's a critic...

@mariner4life Rangi wasn't mediocre.
"He scored a total of 141 test points (14 tries, 25 conversions, 7 penalties) in the 56 tests he played." -

Didn't Rangi work for Robertson, pull the plug halfway into a 2-year contract and go back to Blenheim for family reasons but then decided to coach the Blues and moved to Auckland? Not sure that would go down well.

Rangi was on Razor's ticket when he applied for the ABs role.

Yes he did, but I thought it might actually be family reasons. He is from Blenheim so parents and siblings there? Blues needed a coach, took the chance? Not necessarily an issue with Robertson. Dunno.

@KiwiMurph forgot! but was he the first choice?
-
@Snowy yeah you are probably right, they should make an ok coaching team. But why swap coaches now, we are going so well at training!

There was one about either Rueben Thorne or a cantankerous fan which was absolute hilarious. If someone can drag that from the archives I’d be most appreciative

The Day in the life of Brian O'Driscoll was pretty hilarious too . I seem to recall a bit about using the hotels' revolving door to simulate Stephen Jones tackling...

I clearly didn’t proofread my post ( nothing new there ) I actually meant Cantab, not cantankerous.....same thing I guess.
