    Oh, one question, is super rugby merch easily available in Auckland/Wellington? Like you can easily get a Blues/Canes hat or something basic without going to some niche shop way off the beaten path?

    Rebel Sport will do those, relevant to the area, so yep. There used to be a shop on main street in Welly, but not sure anymore. Auckland main streets are dead and full of shit, avoid.

    Thank you.

    Injuries pretty bad, I guess it maybe hard to tell as this is the first time we've had this clarity. You've got to add those left out from niggles (eg proctor) and as yet unconfirmed injuries (eg Higgins)

    n total, 62 players were unavailable for selection in the Super Rugby Pacific’s opening round – with 43 of those being across the six New Zealand-based teams. The Crusaders were dealing with the most absentees, with 13 sidelined

    The surprising injury count ahead of round one of the Super Rugby season

    i'd love someone to go back and actually look at what its been like in previous seasons, if im honest i cant remember a time when we havent started a season without a few injuries....so thinking it is just the fact i wouldnt have looked at other teams before so where as i felt we were always unlucky...everyone might have been int he same boat

    One criticism of the refs is that there seemed to be a lot of crooked lineout throws let go when the opposition did compete.

    I was disappointed that the Chiefs didn't compete more, as it forces the hooker to nail their throw.

    @Bovidae i noticed that as well and started to get shitty about it...then we did a few crooked ones and thought...at least hes being consistent and then decided it probably had little to no effect on the game so would rather play on than pull it back

    @nonpartizan I used to always listen to The Breakdown on Spotify but they stopped putting it on there last year.

    Read the captions a little closer and you might figure out what they are. I've seen them all and there's a theme to them.

    Embarrassing if so. Leave that to the NRL if that’s what it is. Would looks ridiculous if that theme was copied.

    Here’s hoping it’s the 1996 jerseys

    @Landers92 plus the SA teams did it probably over a decade ago...you know...when marvel was big...rather than when its a bit of a joke
