Wellington v Hawkes (RS)

[JK]

Disgraceful, totally disgraceful.

@Stargazer said in Wellington v Hawkes (RS):

I'm disappointed that the Shield has been damaged, but I'm already reading too many assumptions about what happened.

True mate, we should settle - these shields have a long history of breaking themselves

[Stargazer]

@Smudge Cute. There were 12 arrests in Wellington earlier in the year for pitch invasion in the Warriors’ opening match. I didn't hear you about that.

[mariner4life]

Stadium can't handle cricket either

If it wasn't for a couple of wineries the whole province could slide in to the sea Aenima style

[Stargazer]

Geez, can we keep it civil and not insult an entire province. Us locals are just as disappointed about this as anyone else.

[Stargazer]

@mariner4life You realise that we just had a horrible cyclone this year and that this is not something to joke about. There are still a lot of people suffering the consequences.

[Smudge]

@Stargazer per capita, the McLean Park saga leaves the efforts of the fine people of greater Wellington in the season opener in the shade.

And, of course, Wellington didn't break the shield.

As someone who lives in the tropics and gets them regularly, you'll survive

Calm down @Stargazer, no one has had a go at Wairoa or Mahia yet.

[mariner4life]

The last one true tradition left in NZ rugby and this is how it is treated

Rugby as we knew it is dead

Roll on the revolution

True, this is probably mainly a city problem. Napier especially, but definitely Hastings

I’m not angry, I’m just disappointed. Sadly I’m not surprised given the area. Fucking scum supporters too. Only place in NZ that I have gone to a rugby match and felt threatened. Even the fucking can tabs are t that bad. Fucking filth.

I remember going out in Hastings and nearly getting rolled by gang members.
Scary unsafe joint

I'm loving the hate. We have the Shield bitches. (Even if it is in multiple parts).

You guys have 3 shields! Unheard of!

It’s your own fault for thinking you’d have a fun night out in Hastings to be fair

People from Hastings don't go out in Hastings. Plus, they probably weren't gang members, just some intermediate age street kids.

School uniforms can be pretty intimidating

Rugby players, copious amounts of piss and trophies. I’m amazed there aren’t more stories like this.
