Been watching a lot of old Hurricane games lately.

Still in awe of some of the stuff Cullen did back then.

I remember watching this test at a pub in Taupo, as I was working in the region at that time.

BTW, for anyone who has Sky TV they are showing all of the 1996 test series against SA today starting from 1 pm (SS1).

Both teams are full of ABs. There are even some on the bench. This is what the NPC could be like again.

RIP Sione and Jerry.

@bovidae lol your do dreaming, NPC is a loss making enterprise, if we go back to that, we have to pick ABs from overseas.

JK had a pretty good game too.

Classic moment about 13 mins into that video when Fox runs into a huge gap, and realises that he might have to go for it.

Was that when he did a little swerve and then passed to Ridge who streaked away and put JK in for the try?

[Tim]

@nepia Yeah.

@nepia Yeah.

Iti got three tries! That's a good find. I use to have the Rugby Annuals (as opposed to the Almanacks) and for most of the 90s probably could have told you the score to that game if you'd asked.

@nepia I remember going to the game with my neighbour. Auckland vs Australia in 1990 was good one too, IIRC.
