@no-quarter I don’t think you thought that one through. For every Aussie you piss off there are ten grinning Englishmen.
Although the English rugby team is full of c*nts, I am a British citizen through my very English mother, so in theory they are my second team as much as it pains me to say it.
Me too, except I doubled down serving over there for 14 odd years and marrying one too.
Except she continually points out she's Cornish and British, not English.

Just trying to help.

@snowy Nah it's official now, Cornish is an option on the Census.
How long before they secede?

Does it show the demographic of the Fern that there is an awful of angst towards 99/03/07, with the dominant Cantabs the easy scapegoats, and yet the 90-94 period, and the Auckland guys get away scot free these days? I feel like if this forum was around in 96 there would be a few other names getting cursed.
Too long ago? Too faded from memory?

Not all of us. I'm still blaming Vodanovich for 1970-71

@machpants Well as long as they are happy with their roots, we all are.
@snowy well my wife is from Hertfordshire, but obviously has strong Kiwi roots now.
Anywhoo.
One issue with the match this weekend is it is unlikely to give us alot of insight into anything beyond what we have seen the past few weeks, more so that some of the selections dont appear to be offering much either.

This seems like a good thread to post this:

So Hansen is making a decision on his future and Schmidt makes his next week. Anyone care to offer odds he stay in Ireland?

He's in a pretty sweet spot right now, so it wouldn't surprise me if he stayed

I thought he has already decided to finish after the RWC?
Clearly Rennie isn't coming back for a shot at an AB job.
-
@machpants said in Has Hansen gone stale?:
No he's not declared his decision yet
The guys on PR saying he's finishing at the end of the RWC must have jumped the gun then.

Pick someone who can kick fucking goals, JJ - even if it's Laurie!

God 2002 was shit year.
Highlights the games v South Africa, a good win at home, and a win in Durban. But the world's most boring game v the Wallabies, then a loss. Took the Taine/Jonah/Cully farewell tour away with a squad guaranteeing they would lose, and they did.
Our team was so underwhelming, the results were a bit shit, just a forgettable year.
Funnily enough, until the World Cup in 2011, the only year i had been to more than one AB test (Fiji and Saffers in Wellington)
Mark fucking Robinson at centre over Tana!!!
@mariner4life I was at the 2nd game at Stadium Australia where Richie pounced on an untidy lineout to score and Matt Burke broke our hearts with a penalty in the last minute to retain the Bled. Green and gold confetti fell from the sky. Bled tickets in Sydney were rarer than hens teeth back then.
Weirdly for such an epic last minute Ozwin in the mould of Kefu and Eales there is no footage on the internet (that I can find).
