@Bovidae said in Mitre 10 Cup - news, injuries etc:
@Yeetyaah It is good if the Ranfurly Shield moves around.
@Chris-B should be cheering for the Naki or Wellington 2 weeks later. Ta$man could finally get their challenge if future results go their way.
What, wait!
Is there still something that money can’t buy?

@Gunner Yes, and the person at NZR in charge of organising the NPC schedule is obviously an Otago fan.
They get the first RS challenge if Taranaki or Wellington win it.
There’s no point Steve Walsh will come out of retirement to ref Wellington v Canterbury shield game and give it to the home side AGAIN!

Can't argue with that. Then again, I'm a sensible Otago supporter who has the greater game at the forefront of my mind.

i think a lot of us are a bit sick of his shit, he doesn't create enough for even the most ardent one eyed supporter to overlook the repeated brain farts at best and straight out thuggery at worst
straight up replacement at 12, thats a better run than ive seen from Sio all year

NZ's no.1 provincial rugby fan...

@Bovidae 'Blue' from Northland would be up there too, goes all over the show with the team too
Was quite ill for a while so wasnt able to attend for a year or so, but is back on the trail of the Taniwha
-
@taniwharugby I am sure there are a few "super fans" from each province but anyone from Northland or Southland has a fair bit of travel to do. There is that guy with the flag from Taranaki but he might be mainly home games.
I've been to a fair few rugby grounds around NZ over the years but not with this level of dedication.

@Bovidae hope Taranaki wins the shield. When Canterbury won it Like Whitelock didn't look to happy about, kinda pisses you off when you see the captain with no passion for winning the shield.
I'd forgotten all about that. I think I complained about the lack of passion at the time. I don't feel as bad about having lost it now.
