It's not even factually proven, high heart rate can mean over arousal, which is what we normally see as the ABs often are crap from the start. I was very happy when other teams did the track suit stuff. Pathetic

@Duluth 100% proven to induce cringe and boredom in me.

So, we will win the game if we do a bit of this apparently. Must get the message to the coaches immediately.

Hopefully our forwards will be too busy to fall in love.

I heard that Eben was triggered by Alaalatoa asking if he even lifted.

This Thursday night game feels really weird. Like, I'm at work and not really hyping for it. It's like it's just going to sneak up on me tonight.

I’m a 5 minute tram ride from the stadium and despite a grey typical Melbourne day, there’s quite a few people out and about. I’ve seen a few people wearing AB and Wallaby jersey’s and scarfs.

@ACT-Crusader i work across the road from the intercontinental where the wallabies must be staying, saw a few of the out and about around the place

Were also and 15mins from the stadium

Well... it's all well and good for you folk in the canary-yellow timezone(s).
Here - sitting at work, stalling, trying to figure out how to not be already plastered by a 9:45 kick-off (probably actually 10pm - cause Australia)
And if any fluffybunny suggests "self-control" - well... fuck ya. That's not one of my things.
Drinking is one of my things. And all of my other things are done accompanied by drinking.
Except motorbike riding - but I'm not going for a goddamn motorbike ride on a Wellington September evening.

Fuck it - I'm going to the pub to sit and think about this.

Of course the Haka is an advantage. It's a literal war dance. They did that shit before war for a reason.

Deal with it.

Tim

@Derpus you bore every team to death with the 5 minute long welcome to country land acknowledgement stuff.

Your players must be far more used to enduring that stuff than foreign teams. You have your own advantage.

Amazing. Every single word of what you just said was wrong.

The Docter

Can the real ABs finally show up?

Imagine being an international forward and putting your hand up to say " yeah, the opposition dancing and yelling at me before kick-off really psyches me out, I very much wish they would desist".

The backs I can understand
