    Yeah, really?

    Who in last weekend's stellar team is collecting these massive salaries?

    Who in the team that played last year's final?

    Do you have that NBA stadium "Defence cha cha cha Defence Cha cha cha" ringing in your ears there, Sir Chris, of the Shining armoury??

    This obvious and pathetic whining needs to be called! πŸ™‚

    Bring back Team Naming Tuesday in rugby, we'd all have more to argue about midweek.

      It might be the fear of another 12 months of TASMAN as NATIONAL CHAMPIONS seeping into their bones!

        @Chris-B People more unkind than me might call it Karma. There is a price to pay for everything, money is just one thing. :winking_face:

        Yet another aspect that NZR has been lax on this year - the release of that Deloittes report that identifies provincial player/match budgets.

        As I've pointed out numerous times before, Ta$man has consistently been a shoestring team, except for 2018 when our stats were inflated by the costs of hosting a test match.

        A joke that has now turned into something widely believed.

        We've made the Div 1 play-offs consistently on a shoestring - I'm pretty confident that the 2019 data will validate this again.

        And, whilst on this topic - we've made the play-offs every year since we were promoted from Div 2 in 2013. The ONLY team that has done so! πŸ™‚

            I know it is the piss artists - which is why that fucking Mark Robinson needs to get his finger out of his arse and publish the report!

                      Underdog status and fictional character all in one post. Impressive.

                      We might be upsetting the second division guys a bit here...

                      I actually would like to see the shield up for grabs in the Hawkes v Taniwha match. Adds some extra interest to the "championship" final.

                            i think it would be pretty cool for a Union that by all metrics should have been cut from the competition years ago (had the NZRU not blinked) to get a piece of silverware.

                              Because it is a complete misnomer? Amuses me too.
                              Champions normally come first not eighth.

                              Go the Taniwha!
