I love my Rugby as I am from Nelson NZ and played for 15 years before a serious injury cut my playing days short, I love my Crusaders and All Blacks. Enjoy Cricket which I also played for 18 years, moved to Australia in 2004. Now in Tasmania which is literally pretty cool, but it is a beautiful part of OZ

Harry, I have been thinking about it for a few days since the SRP final.
In 1996 when the ABs won their first series in SA we had multiple World class players, now I look and think Mounga, Ardie, Aaron Smith and then I find it hard. Ethan Blackadder is the future with others but what do we currently have? The RC considering we are going to South Africa I can see us being pumped like we used to do to them in NZ. Australia in the Bledisloe for the first time for years I feel have a genuine chance to drink from it.

Jones still looking for attention, I will not get it from Rennie so now I rely on Cheika. He really is a lonely man looking for some sort of inter reaction, I wonder if Cheika will call his bluff and praise Jones.

Holloway debut hopes hobbled, May also in doubt as Jones gets ready for verbal warfare

Your surname says it all, back to bed and be happy.
Also you need something artificial to keep you uplifted and feel like a man is sad.
So there’s that.

Wow! I would take that selfie for sure. I would love one with Greg Alexander, as I am a Panthers fan since I was 12.

You are right Geoff, for privacy I cannot disclose his name. But a very good friend of mine works for Sky NZ, and he said that individual Countries invite those they choose. Then the Unions sign off on the deal.

I would not say that I was wise, but used my ignorance to my advantage. Wow! George Smith would be one hell of a signature, maybe Brett and Harry could set you up for a meeting with him. I will take multiple photos on your behalf as well as you getting his signature. As long as I could have just one selfie with him. 👍

BS, disappointing that you did not get Phil Waugh’s signature he was a true champion. The ABs do the same thing, or at least they did, after a certain time they would rotate players for signing signatures. While the players did their drills, I would wait till a player was returning before continuing their next drill. I would hold out my jersey and say thanks, they would usually wink or smile. Yes! I was cheeky, but it worked. 😊

Thanks Rusty, I also met Jonah Lomu, Gladstone Small who was a star, Andrew Mehrtens and Wayne Smith brought me into the changing rooms in Nelson. That was after played they played the Golden Cats from SA. I have some special moments which I will always treasure. Rugby does create great memories that are everlasting, the Roar keeps those memories alive. 👍

Sorry to hear what you and your wife experienced. I admire and respect the French fans and team. I was at Millennium Stadium as it was in 2007. I met French supporters before the game and they were humorous and made my day. Then I was sitting amongst mainly French supporters during the game behind the far end posts, they were the same and included me in good hearted banter. They invited me to a pub in Cardiff which they hired out, it was such a brilliant night! I wish I could go to Paris next year, but my condition will not allow it.

And I put SA any day as a true Rugby supporter over England Ankle. On their day they are unstoppable with their brute force, cohesion and genuine flair. England are not what they where now, and seem somewhat lost for ideas.

Tony, I want to tell you something that happened to me at a young age. I am not sure but I would been about 12 years old, when something special happened. I went Christchurch to watch the ABs vs Wallabies Test, when I needed to go to the toilet. I could not find it so ran down the tunnel after the ABs came onto the field, but had no idea where to go. The Wallabies were exiting their changing room, I asked where are the toilets? I heard a voice saying you can use ours, when I turned around I said thank you Andrew. He said you know my name? I replied of course I do not like the Wallabies but you are my favourite Wallabies player. His name? Andrew Slack a great person. After the Test I got the ABs signatures and decided I wanted to go to the the Wallabies, where mother joined me. Slack approached and asked if I wanted his signature, I replied no as I want your jersey. He said to wait 10 minutes. He came out with a fresh jersey signed by the whole team, I have it still and appreciate his and the Wallabies kindness. Since then they have been my second favourite team, apart from one point only. That was only because of Cheika with his and RA mishandling.
