    Crusaders marketing team one, "we just convinced the crusaders that changing from a badass knight to two sets of cocks and balls touching was a great design idea! Top that"

    Blues marketing team "hold my beer"

    Have the canes unleashed this years atrocity yet? I'm setting my expectations to low based on that thing in the picture.

            Yeah I don't understand the fuss about the Canes one. It's just your usual stark yellow Canes Jersey with a bit of black stuff on it.

                  Does anyone recognise any of the wtg/acadamy/injury cover players in the video above? I wondered if the player with dreads second from the right in the 'wedding photo' at 2m35s was the young Auckland halfback Taufa Funaki ?

                      @nzzp yeah they all seem to put it in pre-season, so comes down to other issues that see the results fall the way they do.

                              Going by the Blues latest video the main leadership group is

                              Patrick Tuipulotu (captain)
                              James Parsons

                              Tom Robinson

                              Also - Doug Howlett looks to be involved - great to see!

                                  @Dice yep.

                                  I hope at least Nuia/Eklund get proper minutes off the bench. If Parsons starts he shouldn't be playing more than 50 minutes max.

                                        @Daffy-Jaffy that drone footage is amazeballs. Looks brutal (like most years) πŸ˜„

                                        I liked the one where Ofa was having to bear crawl up One Tree Hill. Look hideous.

                                        That was quality brutality, eh. Glamorous life of a pro athlete.

                                        Brutal? Ha, weak. We* in the military had to do all this with heavy loads, and weapons.

                                        • By 'we' in the military, I mean those who didn't try hard enough at school and ended up as a grunt, or similar. As aircrew, I obviously went from air-conditioned accommodation/ hotel to chauffered air conditioned vehicle to air-conditioned jet. An officer should never run, as it alarms the men.
