If the description of the new jerseys are accurate then green is the new grey - highlanders, canes and chiefs all have green listed as an away colour. Crusaders have switched to white away jerseys and blues appear to be going for the same colours home and away.

That might be a goer - a pilgrimage to Pinetree country. I've never watched a game there.

is that a test to see if you're a true supporter - ordering the jersey without seeing it?

Is this the start of a revolution at the Chiefs? Are their troubles just beginning?

Yeah he still had the moonboot when I was @jegga style having coffee with him and his family in Barangaroo last month.
Good work: in the words of Col. Jegga, '...you want me on that wall -- you need me on that wall.'?!

https://crusaders.co.nz/news/1161-ronan-o-gara-to-join-bnz-crusaders-coaching-teamThat’s an interesting development. A number of Irish coaches plying their trade in various unions/comps. O’Shea at Italy national team, Bradley at Zebre, Cullen at Leinster, Jackman at Dragons, McCall at Saracens, Humphreys at Gloucester, Davidson at Bordeaux-Begles, and now O’Gara shifting to Crusaders. I reckon O’Connell is going to try his hand at some point.
