do they have link to the full lists?
@kiwiwomble it's available on the All Blacks app.
-
interesting re the u-20 tournament but on a personal level good to see the Highlanders giving some thought to the future
-
Are all matches Saturday/Sunday again this year?
I miss sitting down, putting my feet up with a couple of coldies and end the week watching Friday night footy.
-
@kiwimurph fuck really?
What planet am I on?
Must have been thinking about Saturday night footy then? -
@gunner yeah Saturday last week got moved to Sunday cos of covid.
it's a mix of Friday/Sat/Sun this year.
@kiwimurph come to think of it, was it last Friday that both the cricket and rugby were on?
Got too much going on at the moment and can’t remember one week to the next

@tim I hope they're right about Pasifika players being keen to return from Europe and Japan, even if it means that they'll earn less.
Moana Pasifika won't lead to growth of rugby in Tonga and Samoa if they're going to sign NZ players of Tongan and Samoan descent.
I'm less worried about the Fijian team. The Fijian Drua only had players from Fiji and they may be able to get a few returnees, too. Imagine if they could convince players like Peceli Yato, Semi Radradra, Alivereti Raka, even Nemani Nadolo etc to play for them. Would be great!

It won't happen. It might stop a small number heading overseas though.

6 games into the season and we haven’t had a close contest yet
Closest score so far was the first match - Crusaders beating the Highlanders by 13

Yeah just sounds odd when he says "on review" though eh. They were already on review! One thing I didn't consider - did the ref ask the TMO to check the forward pass or did he do that off his own bat?

@bones Haha written like a typical NZ rugby fanboy who thinks we're by far and away the best in the world where no one else comes close. Our comp is a very average standard this year to the point where I think some of the awful Blues sides from 2004-2019 could compete for 2nd place.

@african-monkey *3rd
@kiwimurph I was replacing them with the current Blues side haha.

The trans Ta$man comp might not be dead in the water after all.
Mid-April rumoured start date of a trans-tasman bubble.

Yep, that's good to see. Also good to see that they haven't changed the back out of the hands directive part.
Should be able to have that try as part of the try of the season awards then
