Reds v Blues

[African Monkey]

@Stargazer Personally, Michael Collins.

[kev]

@African-Monkey they haven’t won at this level for a long time buddy.

@Bones a thread is never finished unless there is a Bones GIF mixed in somewhere.

[African Monkey]

@kev I may have possibly been taking the piss.

[Bones]

@Canes4life I note you ignore to respond on the Canes evergreen winning ways. They're soooo good though eh. I mean, look at those titles and semis in the last decade.

No wonder other teams aren't worth your or @hydro11 time.

[KiwiMurph]

No wonder Gregory wants to go to the Highlanders.

[Chris]

Should stick with Plummer at First five he just needs time in the saddle

@Stargazer I'm suprised Umaga hasn't chased his twin nephews.

Peter is never healthy though, although IF he has a healthy run, he could turn out to be a bargain. We have a few open spots for next year.

Thomas Umaga-Jensen has been poor for the Highlanders though. And in the NPC last year, a rookie Billy Proctor passed him.

He's got some big Li size boots to fill.

[KiwiMurph]

Even if the Blues fire that muppet Hanks what players are going to want to come to the Blues?

[Steven Harris]

@KiwiMurph no wonder nobody wants to come to the Blues, not just Gregory..!.
Even Tom Robinson’s dad Alister is questioning wether signing with the Blues was a good idea..(true story)

[Bones]

@Steven-Harris it was hardly a bad idea. What was he going to do, play club rugby?

[African Monkey]

@Steven-Harris Well he can take the easy way out and join a better side (any NZ team), or stay loyal and try and help the Blues turn things around.

Every side has their shit years (we've had plenty), but we've just gotta hang tough and enjoy the rollercoaster (which has been going down and down for a while now).

[Steven Harris]

@Bones more of hindsight comment, now that his stakes have gone up,I would imagine a couple of other franchises would be looking a lot more attractive

[Steven Harris]

@African-Monkey was only a year ago we where hearing about a possible shift for both Ioane boys..was it not..?

Would imagine a couple of other franchises would have said "Tom who? No we've got an All Black thanks".

[African Monkey]

@Steven-Harris Yeah, and they stayed loyal, which suggests they want to help turn things around. They could have fucked off and taken the easy way out by joining a successful franchise with guaranteed finals footy every year but they didn't and they deserve credit for that.

[ACT Crusader]

Score?

[KiwiMurph]

@ACT-Crusader 29-28 Reds.

[Stargazer]

@ACT-Crusader Reds 29 - 28 Blues
