Ross should have been there from the start IMO

Bower was poor yesterday. I thought De Groot went okay. Ross should have been there ahead of both from the start.

@sparky I'm shocked that Bower was ever considered a test option in the first place. Nothing against the guy, but he's nowhere near AB standard.

@tim good stuff, Savea is our best loose forward so that will only improve things. ALB coming in for Ioane at centre will sharpen up the backs aswell.

Foster fattening the players up. Might have been appropriate 30 years ago but pro athletes shouldn't be overdoing the dairy.

[sparky]

Eat lots of ice cream and you too could develop the slim, athletic physique of Ian Foster.

Oh for fuck sake @sparky that's just finding fault for the sake of it.

We're not going to lose a test because Ethan had some orange choc chip ice cream.

[booboo]

I miss orange choc chip ice cream...

[sparky]

@booboo I assume you've heard of the concept of a "joke"?

If I believed it was I might have laughed

The scene as the All Blacks bus nears a dairy.

Foster: Fozzy needs foooood. Fozzy needs ice cream. Driver, pull over. I need fooooooooood.

Plumtree: What about the lads?

Foster: They can have ice cream too. Ethan can have triple scoop. And George Bridge can have a fourth scoop coz I like him.

Plumtree: Ice cream stop boys. But remember, don't push in front of the coach in the food queue. Ngani Laumape forgot that rule last year and look what happened to him.

When Plumtree saaid they needed to be more physical I didn't realize they needed to bulk up with more ice cream...

I gave ice cream a few years ago on my dentist's advice. I don't miss it.

Great to see Ardie back, that's the left wing spot sorted.

2nd 5/8?

That's real dedication as Pokeno is a small detour now. I hope the ABs went to the right shop, not the imposters.

You really should work in tourism, I can just imagine the sign on the road:
Pokeno: the small detour

[nostrildamus]

I hope they play Ardie at 7, I shouldn't need to write that.

@nostrildamus As kids we used to stop for an ice cream at Pokeno regularly. Much more fun when you had to cross SH1 to get from the car to the shop. Now it's just a quiet main street.
