SF - Wellington vs Shield Snorters

[Stargazer]

@Kirwan Go to Specsavers or learn to read instead of twisting words.

[Kirwan]

No I'm good.

Hopefully they don't return the Shield so it can be kept safe.

[Higgins]

@kirwan Still waiting for an answer to my perfectly legitimate question, one for which you must have the answer for given you are so confident you know the intimate details of what happened and those that must have been involved.

[Kirwan]

I would hope that the police would investigate, especially when it's so painfully, stupidly made public, but in the current climate I doubt it.

@Kirwan said in SF - Wellington vs Shield Snorters:

Nobody has ever split it in half, snorted drugs off it and took pictures celebrating both acts and posted them publically. It's a new low.

That comment indicates you have already convicted someone for something that might or might not have happened. I was unaware that you were a court judge in the NZ court system with the powers to convict someone that has not yet been arrested and without any actual evidence other that a photo that could have been doctored. Congratulations on your astuteness and clearvoiantness, you have saved the courts a lot of time and money that would have been spent in actually prosecuting the case

[Kirwan]

That's a lot of words you are trying to put in my mouth to justify the bogan celebrations that broke one of the most treasured trophies in NZ (Well, treasured by the rest of NZ anyway).

I though Higgins went well enough on the wing so am pleased he gets another start. Even though not in his preferred position.

Still a weakness at 9 and 10. Morgan puts me off watching Wellington. Whereas Clarke, while certainly not perfect, was the opposite. As was Preston.

@Winger add in Julian Savea as a weakness, he was horrible last week. Dropped the ball about 4 times and looked sluggish.

Nice to see Asafo Aumua back in the side.

After last week's physical onslaught, I can see why we've gone with an extra forward on the bench.

[Machpants]

James O'reilly will be out to smash fluffybunnies (that didn't invite him to the snorting)

[Canes4life]

@Machpants now don’t be surprised if he signs for them next year. 😂

[BerhamporeNinja]

HB showing good D here on the Fern 👌🏽

Sorry to anyone going to game from Wellington, but GO The Bay!!!!! (I want a final up here in the Naki!)
And if you not going well you don't care enough (or live elsewhere).

[Canes4life]

It’s a storm here in Wellington atm. Hopefully it clears a bit before tonight.

Well we have Wellington supporters in here so assume they do.

[Canes4life]

@Magpie_in_aus I’ve been going to sporting events in Wellington all my life. Not sure what you’re even talking about. Some of the best sporting crowds I’ve been apart of have been in Welly.

All Blacks vs Lions and other big tests
Canes vs Landers Final and the 2016 final.
Bmac getting 300 at the Basin
All Whites vs Bahrain
Black Caps vs England at the WC

So many memorable moments and that’s only touching the surface.

[Canes4life]

Weather has definitely improved from this morning but still windy.
