Sulking because the chiefs suck?
That would have been many years before Rennie and post Rennie without posting.

Nah, that's not quite right
I'm only talking about Bartman who posted plenty about Rennie (remember 'Rage rage against the dying light' about Rennie's Chiefs taking over from the Crusaders?) and he posted during the last RWC
Anyway, lets get back to the Crusaders being poaching scum and their fans having soft skins

I am always amused when people start talking about poaching in professional sport. You have to forget the sport bit and focus on the professional bit. These guys are professionals first looking for the best career path with the best rewards like most of us in the work force and then sportsmen second.

That just reinforced my point about the chiefs not mods. One did pack a sad and resign of course.
A couple of good years in almost 3 decades, quite a dynasty.😉
Please remember that I am a blues fan so my glasshouse is extremely fragile.

Jeez had I known my post was going to make the front page I would have tarted it up. A lot. The standard is clearly dropping around here if dross like that is deemed worthy of a front page appearance!
Your post was a poster child for "Awful analysis, incorrect conclusions, zero insight
Wrong about pretty much everything" -

So many people post from phones/tablets now. It's a pleasant surprise when there 3 semi coherent sentences in a row now
So the front page is more 'promoted posts' than articles
If you want to write longer/better rants I'll keep putting them up there

And here it is. The most underwhelming Crusaders signing in many years.
Stop criticising the Crusaders! Everyone picks on them. It’s not fair.
Too right.
Some of you ungrateful fucks need to start thanking us for allowing the comp to benefit from the players we develop.
The Chiefs have been propped up by Retallick, Leinert-Brown and McKenzie (the good family members; not Calum, Daniel and Marty). Their poaching knows no bounds with Dom Bird, Tom Sanders, SBW, Nepo Laulala and Solomon Alaimalo other shining examples helping to form their patchwork quilt of a playing roster over the last decade.
We let one of our best up and coming coaches head north to try and make the Blues respectable and eventually get them to a faux championship, whilst also gifting them Sam Darry this year as a further boost. Hell, we even allowed and forgave DC a Blues dalliance recently. Not so much those Chemist Warehouse ads. Our generosity should be acknowledged.
The Hurricanes have benefitted from, well, umm, Reed Prinsep, but at 1.78m he's given their line out a significant boost now for a number of years. Oh and Mal Arnold. Or was it Derek Maisley.
Then I notice Highlanders fans never utter a peep when these threads turn into poaching debates. And nor should they given the encyclopaedia of Crusaders and just generally good Cantabs theyve picked up over the years to plug the seive-like holes in their annual roster scramble. Lately they've gone for a Stiflers' mom approach and pilfered the likes of Sam Gilbert and Will Tucker but they also like to have a veritable who's who of Cantab loose forwards in the mix with Harmon and Lentjes there now to replace Dixon and Manu. And let's not forget Sam Harding. Patrick Osborne, Colin Slade and Rob Thompson were lured south from the Crusaders environment to bolster backlines past and where would they have been without Chris King, Siate Tokolahi and DLB. But we still love you, Highlanders.
Didn't you guys poach McCaw from Otago?

Wait, we put that hot pile of rubbish on the front page?
Sheesh, in that case I have a follow up to my previous post so that this dodgy info doesn't spread unchecked. Fully half of the players the Chiefs "poached" were in fact poached by the Crusaders - McKenzie, Bird, SBW and Laulala.

That’s is shocking by the Chiefs, much much worse than the Crusaders ,that’s a double poach shameful by the Chiefs.

So the Canes started it.Now we know who the real poachers are.

@kirwan Word is the McCaw homestead, whilst in the Kurow area, is in fact on the other side of the Waitaki, which puts him at least 5m inside the Crusaders' catchment.
shit like this is how Poland ended up disappearing from the map
