<p>Flying Qantas wearing my all blacks kit, feeling a bit outnumbered but it's all high fives and smiles. Cliffy Palu / Skelton were in the lounge but I didn't see them because I was too busy relishing that I had snatched the last office just as Joe Hockey arrived (even got a dirty look!

Just a good thing you weren't wearing jandals. I hear the style-nazis on the door are down on visible toes! Have a good flight. Give Hockey the bird! -

<p>I remember not even being all that happy after the last World Cup final, had a massive tension headache and collapsed in bed in relief. Was a horrible game to watch with only a one point lead. Hopefully we smash the Aussies and I can actually enjoy the final this time.</p>

<p>Yeah - if we got 40 points in front my jaw might start to unclench a fraction......if there were three minutes left!</p>

<p>A few years back, Otago hadn't won on Eden Park for something like 30 years. They were up by 13 points with 90 seconds to go.... and they lost (I think Joe Rok scored at least one of the tries).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm scarred by that knowledge!</p> -

<p>My boy pulled out three of his own this week. Up your game.</p> -
<p>It was 1996. A young M4L was in the stands watching BOP play for the Shield, expecting a fun day in Auckland, and some beers afterwards. Suddenly, holy shit! There is 8 minutes to go, and we are up by 18!!! Fucking come on!! Of course Auckland came right back, but not back enough, 80 minutes, we're still up by 6! And it's our scrum feed!! Win the scrum, kick it out, take home the shield!! I'm cheering and laughing and it's an unbelievable day. Wait, what? holy shit, no! they couldn't, could they? Carrington? You fucking traitor!! Miss the kick you fluffybunny. Tero. Noooooo!!!! Fuck you rugby gods, why?!!!</p>
