@Derm-McCrum "everyone take two bags" obviously doesn't fit in Fozzie logic

@nostrildamus he's already had to concede on the props and the midfield. He won't be proven wrong on hooker and halfback too.
I hope they have the bed made up at Keith Murdoch's old place
This is a perfectly random nostrildamus post, well done sir.

I thought it might be passing practice - but obviously I'll defer to your greater knowledge and insights.

Would make sense why I didn't see Christie and Faingaanuku there. Bags would've ended up at Ireland's hotel.

Some really bizarre logic in here from folk defending Christie over Roigard.
Makes zero sense if it happens. Even Roigard potentially shitting the bed would be preferable to Christie slowly strangling us.
The thing for me though, is that when you look across the teams, we don’t have a huge number of areas of clear advantage. Breakdown, set piece, discipline, kicking game - all equal or advantage Ireland. Where we could absolutely have an advantage is the bench. Roigard and DMac can bring a real point of difference to the backs in the final 20mins

The wait on this one is killing me. I really really want us to win this. Not for Fozzies legacy or because I think we can go all the way. I think that would be a long shot.
I just find the average Irish rugby supporter to be totally unbearable. I first noticed it with their holier than thou approach to goal kicking. Ohh look at us we stay silent everyone else boos, so fucking what. You think the kickers give a shit? Its not good sportsmanship its just another type of intimidation. Just like you try and scream over the line out call at every fucking throw in.
I think it all really got out of hand around the time of the "He could have died" cleanout. It quickly became a spare tackle, even though there was no ball. Then it was intentional, then we should apologise.
After that any match we beat them in was because the Ref, or we cheated, or we were too physical or Jonny was targeted or the haka. Then when they started beating us, its not like the fans humbled in their success. No, now they didn't beat us they smashed us! Any infringement against us had to be a red, their infringements were again due to bad Refs or just different because reasons! See soak tackle, a phrase that has only been used once in all the international rugby I have ever watched. They are the only set of fans that think they need to "counter the haka" like its some sort of weapon, its a cultural tradition. If its such a problem just ask we won't do it.
But for me, the straw that broke the camels back, was the shitty mean girls sledging that their fans think is sooooo funny. "You're just a shit Richie McCaw" hahahah good one. That's the kind of shit that should wake you up in the middle of the night just to cringe at the mere thought of.
If we do win, they will be going over the footage frame by frame to see where they were cheated, of that I have no doubt. But for once I couldn't want for anything more.
This is our final, anything after this is a bonus I just hope the coaches are lighting a proper fucking fire in the players. I want to see us come out and show a level of physicality we normally reserve for South Africa right from the first whistle.
2 more days hurry the fuck up!!!!!

But true, Bridge would be a much better pick than Faingaanuku on the bench eh. Because at least George can be rated on tough tests.
For a tough test, you'd pick George Bridge over Damien MacKenzie, because George Briodge never shat the bed as badly as Damien MacKenzie did in a tough test.
