    @dogmeat I just noted those TAB odds - MN5 evidently hasn't yet got around to putting his house on the Black Caps.

    England $1.85, NZ $2.80.

    Are NZ punters still living in the past, or just anticipating disappointment?

    Perhaps still some scars of the last away Test series.

            Geez, anyone would think we were opening with our two Blairs ( Hartland and Pocock ) to counter all their ollies.

                To be fair, Shane Bond took the flight didn't he? Just forgot to pack all the pieces he needed in his back!

                Message to these English fluffybunnies.

                You can actually win these tests. There's just about nine of our players that you may not break fingers or toes on.

                  I think it's a permanently ingrained psyche. We expect and demand the All Blacks to win. We expect and fear the Black Caps to FUBAR any great opportunity.

                  @MN5 may be fully healed, but the last game we played at Lords and the last away Test series remind our inner conscience that any version of the Black Caps are still capable of managing an Idiot Foster against Argentina.

                  Couch and bean bag at the ready for hiding behind purposes.

                        It'll be interesting to see the off side fields and bowling plans to Sibley. He doesn't at all look like he's set up to play off side. Infuriating. Ollie Pope is a very good bat. Their pace bowling attack is also very good. Wood shouldn't be underrated.

                        🤔 probably run out of curses....

                          @chris-b i went to that one. Howling gale ( triggering mn5) and Walsh says it's the fastest and best he ever bowled. Couldn't track the ball from looking on square to the pitch.

                            They were in all those games and ahead going into the fourth day in the first and third tests.

                            Lost Bond before the tests, Vettori after the first test and then Martin and Mills both broke down in their first spells of the final test.

                            In hindsight it wasn't a bad effort given what that English team became.

                                You’re certainly not saying anything that’s not wrong, but I really think this team is different.

                                Think of a Warriors fan saying “This is our year” but actually meaning it.

                                        There’s a disappointing lack of keyboard tough guys on here now a certain someone decided to leave.

                                          Can’t wait to see Conway get to show his worth at Test level. Hopefully he takes this opportunity with both hands, arguably the best batsmen in NZ atm with Williamson out of form lately.
