This thread should be as dead as the aura, going on ignore. GOM thread for me

[booboo]

Huh.

Aura was born on the back of doing enough.

Our old friend Cueball as assured his players that Aura has gone MIA:

"All Blacks leave it late at Twickenham but watching world will take note of their diminished air of invincibility"
I didn't realize invincibility was a broad spectrum.
But technically speaking, the ABs might have looked vincible but weren't vincibled. Today.

The Torygraph commentary on the Ireland game

[booboo]

Just getting g round to watching ABXV v Georgia.

Richard Cockrill in IV before the game when asked if they prepare differently than for any other team.

"... can't worry about any aura they may have ... "

[Nepia]

Aura still intact enough that the NH include wins over the ABs when rating a players career alongside 6 Nations trophies etc - Cian Healy tying with Coulda Doid for the most capped Irish player.

According to the BBC Andy Farrell has "such an aura". Is the same as our aura or a different one? Has our aura been whoring out again?

@sparky whaura

[Smuts]

@Bones is it too late to get the Aura back from Farrell or is she rooted beyond all recognition now?

[Unite]

Probably can close this thread now, it’s gone.

[ACT Crusader]

This nine and a half year old thread has always been a myth….

[Smudge]

Seems an appropriate commentary on the state of the ABs' aura, especially as fhe author turned out to be as much of a fraud as our current coach.

[booboo]

Ok. She's turned up twice in the space of about a week on Devlin's podcast.

4m25s into this:

She's baack

Martin Devlins active listening skills are par excellence.

An expression of absolute concentration and a subtle and only slightly perceptible head nod.
