    @dejo The old software used to have 'public details' for users online stats and IIRC some day in 2007 generated the most for some years to come.

    I recall the blood letting and analysis was epic

      I joined in 08 and since then we've had back to back WCs. Obviously the AB coaches have been reading my wise words and made the necessary adjustments.

      I think I joined in 08 too (or 07, it's fuzzy) but I remember reading stuff earlier than that.

      If I was here in 03 the Bitchell thread might have made the Hammettuer thread seem tame in comparison.

        Nothing beats the Paj(?) vs Davidav battle royal that was the Middle East thread. Vigorous. Although Guns and Strippers was pretty close

          Not sure I remember that one. I feel slighted now, I might round up @Chris-B (IIRC Paj was a Hammetteur fluffer as well) and find the old Hammettuer thread and kick start it again to take it to glory.

          Although, the Blues fans during the Tana and Kirwan eras probably generated higher post counts but they tended to do that over multiple threads rather than concentrating it in one.

            I deliberately ignored the Fern after our RWC losses. Combination of newbie trolls and all that knashing of teeth, sackcloth and ashes

                  2002 was all part of the grand plan to win back the Bledisloe in 2003. As Henry did, Hansen is still riding their coat tails.

                      I like it, they completely foxed it, playing boring stodgy rugby based on the Cantablacks and then a year later unleashing the Blues gameplan (that they had secretly told Graham Henry to start practising) on Oz.

                            God 2002 was shit year.

                            Highlights the games v South Africa, a good win at home, and a win in Durban. But the world's most boring game v the Wallabies, then a loss. Took the Taine/Jonah/Cully farewell tour away with a squad guaranteeing they would lose, and they did.

                            Our team was so underwhelming, the results were a bit shit, just a forgettable year.

                            Funnily enough, until the World Cup in 2011, the only year i had been to more than one AB test (Fiji and Saffers in Wellington)

                            Mark fucking Robinson at centre over Tana!!!

                              @mariner4life all put in perspective when winning 3Ns and Bledisloe in 2003. When it actually meant something.

                                Agreed, and I would have loved to have seen you twisting yourself in knots trying to defend the selections of the Hobbit and then that dude playing in the midfield for Auckland in the NPC over him.

                                  I wish Mitchell and Deans had stopped reading your emails back in 02. πŸ˜‰

                                  2002 was all part of the grand plan to win back the Bledisloe in 2003. As Henry did, Hansen is still riding their coat tails.

                                  I like it, they completely foxed it, playing boring stodgy rugby based on the Cantablacks and then a year later unleashing the Blues gameplan (that they had secretly told Graham Henry to start practising) on Oz.

                                  We all know that in the ABs it was Mauger and Umaga that made Carlos, Rok, Howlett and Mils look flash. I blame Deans for those 50 point wins.

                                      @mariner4life all put in perspective when winning 3Ns and Bledisloe in 2003. When it actually meant something.

                                      indeed. when we got a new team and a new plan. 2002 was deleted like a bad selfie. We just didn't go far enough in the end, more cantabores needed to be rissoled.

                                        Was Wayne Smith in charge in 2002? Or did Bitchell take over then? All I can recall is him trying to lecture Cullen on the mechanics of holding and passing the ball, and trying to justify his non-selection in the 2003 cup side by saying he was not even the 4th or 5th best 15 in NZ that year. What a fucking carnt. I still haven't forgiven him for that
