@Daffy-Jaffy I reckon playing this time of the year on these low grade fields isnt the best idea, given most are likely hard AF.

That just made my blood run cold. I remember playing preseason in Nelson and the sprigs pushed up into the sole of you foot giving the meanest blisters.

jesus, when did you last play?

My first set was when i was playing gridiron, around 2000?

To be fair, in the Waikato, you only needed them at the start of the season, then you needed the 18mm steels for the rest of the year.

In Wellington I used to have a set of both that i took to each game, depending on the quality of the surface, for the most part it was the long ones.

Of course in the Tropics wearing steel sprigs was just fucking stupid.

The main drawback of them in the early days was you couldn't hurt people with them. Then they changed the rules anyway.

I played the majority of senior rugby in Marlborough for Pelorus. 95-2000

@Bones how So?

Because he's a decent kiwi ref and not exactly getting on. Think he could have continued on for a few more years and only got better.

Why is it a good thing?

[Stargazer]

@Bones He's a decent ref, apart from the hometown bit.

[Bones]

@Stargazer meh, in the past.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bones I disagree. Everyone on here bags him and rightly so. He's bias towards hometown teams and has been for years, there's a reason he never got a world cup gig.
