Regardless of how they do at Rugby Wellington is THE best place in New Zealand and I will fight anyone who disagrees

It certainly seems to be the place to fight randoms over opinions that aren't very popular outside of Wellington...

You guys aren’t randoms. I’m even quite fond of some of you

Hoping for something like :

De Groot
Aumua
Lomax
Tuipolutu
Darry
Finau
Papali'i
Savea
Ratima
DMac
Clarke
J. Barrett
Proctor
Jordan
Love

Taylor
Williams
Newell or Tosi
Vaai
Sititi
TJP
Ioane
B. Barrett

Would love to see that backline get a run at some point.

J. Barrett
Proctor
Love

I'm sure you would

Add Roigard to that backline and it’s even better. Having four Canes in the backline is the obvious ingredient to success.

Not in the competition I saw this year..

To be fair we were top of the table when Cam was fit

Yeah we all know Cam’s injury cost a title this year.

I wouldn't go that far. But his loss can't be understated

Harry Plumber called into the wider training squad, has to be a good thing.

Let's hope it doesn't go to waste. One for the future pipeline.

@Bones typical, you're straight in with a septic response.

I wasn’t being totally serious but his form was very good and his injury probably hindered our chances by quite a fair bit.

[BerniesCorner]

Can't remember ABs having so much prospective depth at halfback.
Roigard, Ratima, Hotham, Viljoen, Pledger, Christie, Perenara
Unreal
Can see a running halfback being a real point of difference.

Attack the inside channels using Savea, Ratima and DMac.

You lost Roigard, but we played Christie.

Who the hell is Pledger?

And I’ve heard Viljoen’s name mentioned a few times.

He’s not a realistic chance after 3 or 4 appearances from the bench in super rugby. I’m not saying he won’t get there, but I’d like to see some evidence before we put him in any AB 9 depth chart.

Yeah the post is pretty much ( insert every super rugby player in any given position ) and ‘wow, look at the depth we have’

[Bones]

I thought Pledger looked very on the small side too. Is he?

Is that Ratima lifting?

I'm also struggling to identify people by their chins and calves.
