    Joe Stanley was the big hard midfielder of that era and was under 90kg if I recall correctly.

    Just makes me realise how much the AB selectors missed a trick by not picking Marty 'Chuck' Berry. He woulda absolutely dominated.

    According to his stats, he was 83kg. That's probably lighter than Andrew Mehrtens.

      Yeah - although probably more in the Laumape 'mould'. He's not exactly a huge unit.

        I say it every time we play. But "Come on Boys I need this win" My misses and all my outlaws are Irish! I can dine off this for the next year. But if we lose, I cop it nonstop.

          Look. Tana and BOD have buried the hatchet and are sharing a laugh.

          0_1542119909530_original.jpg

          Next on Tana's list are @Kirwan and @Duluth 😉

          Both wearing Guinness shirts , is it genuine, looks like the shooting of an ad ?

          Both Guinness 'Ambassadors', which I guess means that they are being paid to pose for photos with Guinness shirts on and do a talk to corporates on a jolly. No wonder T is laughing, he's thinking of the bank balance.

            Sadly if your in-laws are anything like many of the Irish 'fans' on the interweb you will cop it anyway. They will find a reason (like 'you played too hard').
            Fern company excluded of course. We seem to attract a better quality 😉

              Now that I've left HK, I can enjoy the jovial Irish again. There's a couple at work who are top lads, so win lose or draw, I think we'll have a beer and laugh.

                  In other better news, injury room has de-populated. Kearney, Ringrose and Marmion back in training and all should likely start. .

                  Teams named tomorrow. I’m reckoning
                  1-15
                  J McGrath, Best, Furlong, Toner, Ryan, Leavy, POM, Stander
                  Marmion, Sexton, Stockdale, Aki, Ringrose, Earls, Kearney
                  16-23
                  Scannell, Healy, Porter, Beirne, Murphy, L McGrath, Carbery, Larmour/Conway/Addison

                      I thought there was one where Sexton "took his head off" according to Steve Hansen - and presumably coulda died.....

                        That is the next frame. He put his head back on and neglected to whinge about it for years after.

                                This is a weird week. BOD makes up with Tana, and a Kiwi discovers humour.
                                What's going to happen next?

                                    That’s not saying much.Have you seen Mehrtens lately?
                                    He was at the cafe when I had breakfast with Joe Moody , Jerome Kaino , Damien McKenzie and Liam Squire . Mehrts defence was always a bit suspect but he can tackle any buffet by the looks of him.

                                    First time you've mentioned that breakfast. How did you keep a lid on that for so long?

                                    Mehrts was slight as for much of his career. He didn't smash the pies until later. Who can forget the tragicomic image of him walking off injured looking 20kg overweight and with those ridiculous lambchop sideburns.

                                    Joe Stanley was the big hard midfielder of that era and was under 90kg if I recall correctly.

                                    Just makes me realise how much the AB selectors missed a trick by not picking Marty 'Chuck' Berry. He woulda absolutely dominated.

                                    According to his stats, he was 83kg. That's probably lighter than Andrew Mehrtens.

                                    That’s not saying much.Have you seen Mehrtens lately?

                                      I'm just going to put you down here gently, Robbie, and take the ball if you don't mind.
                                      Ok then.
