If that's a howler whoever plays wing at RWC is going to have some absolute shockers and might as well burn their airtickets home and start walking now!
if this goes as i sort of expect it to, the level of finger pointing on here is going to be fucking epic.

@mariner4life It's a long time since we didn't win a World Cup!

i joined a few months after the last disaster. So i have yet to see it.
You would think that winning two in a row would lessen the pain somewhat. But the walls are going to go up around provincial lines, and the artillery is going to be concentrated and vicious

@mariner4life 2007 was nothing compared to 2003.
Field Marshall Haig would have been quite proud of engineering that.
Can you imagine Nepia being here at the time that Cullen was actually being dropped? There were some Wellingtonians of similar ilk, at the time.
I think their heads actually exploded.

At least one of which was on 6 figures.

Akin to fishing with dynamite. If we hadn't lost it would have been funny.

@mariner4life the layout of the fern back in 1999 meant it was easier to miss alot of that stuff....I dont recall alot of 2003 on here, although I was living in the UK so was in a different time zone...2007 I just banned myself for a few weeks.

IIRC it had those long indented thread things and you had to open them to get all of the comments?
The layout may have changed but the opinions haven't.As for banning yourself in 2007 - I was in a padded cell (again) in Cardiff.

@Snowy they literally were 'threads' and yep, you had to click on the reply to see what Phooey was raging about, rather than baring all as it does now.
@taniwharugby said in All Blacks vs Tonga:
to see what Phooey was raging about
I didn't need to read Phooey's rants to know what he was raging about.

@Snowy ok, to see if he was raging about something/someone different than usual

A very amusing thing about the Cantablacks, was that the Fern did a position-by-position poll to pick the team and picked - the Cantablacks!
I know this is correct, because I've pointed it out many times before!
Didn't stop Mitch being hurled into a pot of boiling oil for doing it. Especially when he did it again!

Tana was part of the Cantablacks.
Edit: Not Broomhall, though. He was a source of outrage.

Not sure that many of us had Ben Blair or Caleb Ralph in our squads in 2003 either.
Doug Howlett, Joe Roks, Jerry Collins, though, and a bunch that I might remember later.
@Snowy that guy Carlos, Mils...was Ali a Cantab then or a Blue (Blues, whatever the fark you call someone form the Blues)

to be fair, Super Rugby 2003 changed everything.

Reuben Thorne anyone? We are back to Phooey's rants with that one.
And just for fun that guy Hammett that has gone on to be a (searching for the word...) coach.
