Whats your "second team" in Super Rugby?
-
Highlanders for me due to a few Canterbury boys. Harmon,Lienart -Brown and ex players Gilbert,Tucker etc, plus got to support the South Island.
-
Whoever is playing against the Chiefs….

Blues, cos I live in the region

fuck i love this
i remember when we were the highlanders. People liked us because we sucked.
Now? They hate us because we don't. And the Cantabs really hate us because big ben ate a couple of favourite sons.

Generally depends on the composition of the team and the coach. I've never really had anything against the Chiefs but very much enjoyed their losing streak when Gatland was coach.
I was in absolute awe of the Blues in the early days and 2003.
Theres a really cool team in the capital. Jonah, Cully and Tana used to play for them. Bull was the captain. JC and Rodders ran around for a bit too. What about them ?
Dude. What is the title of this thread?

@mariner4life look I admit my dislike for the Chiefs has changed over time. They used to be my second hatiest team behind the Waratahs, but now they hold that honour 😀
-
I’ve never had a second team. I tend to support certain players from other teams and like seeing them play well.

i still hate the Waratahs the most, even though they are pathetic now
i also hate the Reds and their ref bashing fans.

by that logic the Highlanders have always been the Highlanders

nah, we used to like you in the 90s for positive reasons, not pity.
Cool players. Cool style of footy
cool song
"Otaaago
Highlanders
Welcome to the house of pain"Chainsaws on one wing, Goldie swan dives on the other. Glorious failure.

Blues. Did I do this right?

given your post history, this is absolutely on point
to paraphrase Bill Shankly "there are two good teams in Super Rugby, the Blues and the Blues reserves"

Unlike some, I don't hide from my bias.

Yeah but I just assumed the Reds would be your first team. I mean, you live there right ?

You are seriously breaking my balls here.

Hard for me to pick a second NZ team as I go through phases of hating them. Drua always fun to watch for the last couple of years so probably them at the moment.

nope now you are the Force
They'd be my second team because they try, but hey, they are the Force so they can't be!
(Full disclosure the Clan have always been my second team).

Moana and the Blues equal 1st (love them both).
Crusaders distant last.

I don't get how one can hate another NZ team. Or another Super team for that matter.

Because I live in Canberra, I hate the Brumbies. Not because of the people at the Brumbies, but the dickhead supporters I'm surrounded by.
I also hate the Tahs, so that's a poor decision that's come to haunt me.

Canes. Because they need it.
-
Yeah, I don’t mind the Highlanders. They are a lot more palatable than the other three NZ teams who aren’t the Hurricanes.
-
Blues, Highlanders, MP equal second for me.

@Nepia Don't lie you like the Crusaders as your second team aye 😉

He’s like that girl at school that keeps telling everyone that she hates a certain boy, even starts throwing a few stones and hitting him, but deep down has always had a crush and luffs him very much.

It's a thin line between love and hate

Hey I've alway said my dislike of the Crusaders is less about the players and coaches (aside from Deans TBF) and has always been the fans.
Meanwhile my dislike for the Canes is about the ownership, selectorial policy, coaches etc and less about the fans, although @Canes4life does an admirable impression of a Cantab style supporter.
@canefan Why are you ganging up on me with the Cantabs? I thought we were bros.

Sorry mate, I was just throwing a comment out there. We all know your second team is anyone other than the Saders

If you're a kiwi and support an Ozzie team over a kiwi team, I have a present for you, traitorous dog

I wasn't counting the aussie teams. They are beyond contempt, especially the Bumboys

Yeah, I'm kinda neutral in Most NZ games - I really just want to see every team and its players playing well and providing lots of competition and options for the ABs. That said, I will generally support whoever is playing against the Crusaders just for the variety of seeing another team do well (and, interestingly, there is a negative correlation between our world cup wins and their success).

@junior 2011 we were robbed…
One of my favourite Crusaders matches was the semi final win that year against the Stormers in Cape Town. DC put on a masterclass.
-
Supporting the Blues is painful enough. No need to drag a second team into this.
-
First team: Highlanders
In order after that:
Blues
Drua
Reds
MP
Chiefs
CrusadersEveryone else
Hurricanes

Yes, and I was definitely pulling for your boys that year (and will always back them against non-NZ teams)

Waratahs

All jokes aside, it's whoever is playing the Crusaders. And that includes the Waratahs.
