      At the ground heading into the lounge.

      Glorious, feels like early autumn. Cool but dry

        Gotta say I love test day, makes doing my chores and other things easier knowing I have a game to look forward to tonight. I hope you all enjoy your Saturday and get your jobs done so you can enjoy the rugby guilt free. 😉

        Same to you mate. Wife is out at her friend's wedding which I somehow managed to get out of, so it's me and my 3 boys at home for a boys night in. I've had ribs in the slow cooker all day, to be served with onion rings, chips and beer. Can't wait for the first test of the year, bring it on!

          Interesting to hear your opinions. I think as an Irishman I'd say we only have the edge in the starting props (reserve front row is a big step down), Josh Van Der Flier and Henshaw. I'd give it to the All Blacks in every other position.

          And if you're right, that really speaks to how poorly coached our team is

              I'll probably take one of my wife's anti-anxiety pills 20 minutes prior to kick-off (I'm not kidding)

                Like you need the drink to get ranty, it's just a bonus.

                    Though the most fun I ever had was after the Perth debacle when I was pretty pissed and went right the fuck off.

                      Okay, get your predictions in before kick-off.

                              A new game plan* for the ABs, rusty as fuck, but pull away in the last 20 over a tired end'o'the season Irish.

                                I've got ABs pretty comfortable, 34 - 12. After the tired display from the Irish midweek team I think their A team will probably run out of puff as well.

                                SB the first try scorer, and the media "experts' will laud his move to 6 as a resounding success based on that try and that try alone.
