Gonna make for some pretty odd viewing if it’s legit

@JK “Our turf team are so committed they’ve even painted the grass black – that’s how ready Eden Park is for this momentous occasion”

Fuck me.

[ACT Crusader]

Black turf, I hope we are wearing our grey jerseys…..

[KiwiMurph]

Well they need to get busy with the black paint as the grass was normal green for the captain's run today.....

[Smuts]

No, no, no. They just painted it green for the bok captain’s run. They’ll paint it black again for the match. Probably.

[JayCee]

Well shit here we go.

Please for the love of god, just play a "keep it simple" / territorial game, remain patient, let the occasion at home give us the upper hand and energy to defend our hearts out.

I fear within the first 5 mins, I'm going to shouting what the fuck was that. Prove me wrong boys.

[Yeetyaah]

It's simple, we just score more points than the other team and we'll get the W

@JK

Obviously it didn’t happen but even just making a meme is more complete and utter nonsense from the cowboy running Eden Park

Maybe this will help us avoid getting pinged by the ref so much...

That didn't end well....

[MiketheSnow]

Could go either way

Cards will be critical

SA by 4-7

[BerniesCorner]

We have discipline, we win. Keep it in the forwards grind it out. BB is the key.

I never really got the hoo haa over that, I was living overseas at the time and it just seemed like a way to support the team from Air NZ. It wasn't like it was a picture of the ABs holding the cup aloft (or was it?).

[Mattasaurus]

I hate to say this but... SA 1 - 12 gawd I want to be wrong after that Cantab rogering

[sparky]

A close one, but the Boks will win by a single score.

Looking forward to screaming my voice hoarse cheering for the ABs.

[Donsteppa]

I vaguely recall a headline of "Time to unplug the Mains" after the 1994 loss at Eden Park.

I fear a similar Sharks Circling Surf Features headline tomorrow, but will be very happy to be wrong.

Hiding behind the couch, don't think I'll be posting much.

You're welcome.
