Fair call I get that about many Kiwi fans supporting other teams...

Many Kiwis stayed supporting their original clubs after 1995. You're lucky I'm not a Raiders fan coming in here on game day.

In 1994 it just felt right to go out on a high with the Green Machine. I was ready for Auckland and the new challenge. Others not so.

I welcome BH on this forum.

I don't think he's said anything nasty or untowards. I reckon he's called it pretty fair.

The fact he's here on a game day thread is fine by me too, he's here all the time so it's not like he's come on just to troll.

Does this mean we are now mathmatically out? I know realistically we've been out for a few weeks, but I guess now we can officially plan for next season
BH is a champion bloke, by all observations. Lives in NZ, takes an interest in our team. And seems to have spare time on his hands at work 😂 so posts as much as I do. It's all good. And I welcome other team's fans in any thread, as long as they participate in decent analysis, which he definitely does. He had a Sea Eagles view last night, we have a Warriors bias, it gives different perspective.

There’s no plan beyond ‘if we win the ruck and complete more sets we will win’. It’s like we’ve read a manual on basic rugby league strategy and taken it slightly too literally.
Exactly this, like there was a three day course on game plan development, and our leadership decided day 1 was sufficient

What is good about this forum is there are diverse perspectives, opinions and levels of expertise. I’ve got no interest in an echo chamber blinkered thinking/discussion or anything else. It’s easily the best forum I’ve seen on LU

Echo chambers are one of the things that are the biggest problem with this world.

I like sup's work, too - knows more than I'll ever know about the game. He is very rose tinted about the state of our club at the moment, where others might not be. It's very interesting to see where it goes, and I hope he's right

Thing is if you add prime SJ, Tohu and Egan that’s about all you need as 2023 showed. As someone said in another thread, we’re all cake no icing now. The worry for me is that prime SJ was a big ingredient in that icing and we ain’t getting that back.

Only two players were charged from incidents last night, from about the 5 zillion Butler put on report 😂 that was a wild night of officiating

I think the bunker did most of it.
But we can't blame Casey for jumping at ghosts now can we? As lucky no one was in the bin.

Edit: needed to read Big Marn post first!

was it more from Badger though and he was just regurgitating shit to the player?
Ok, fair enough.

Did anyone listen to her explanation of the Capewell interference for the Pompey no try? Holy hell. I know my mrs can take a while to get to the point but that took it to a new level.

The one for the Lussick knock in goal took that long I thought she was going to bloody give it

I reckon there will be 17 clubs next season trying to sign Gavin Badger

Ha, that might be the one. It sounded like one of my wife's diatribes at me, where I'm not sure if she's going to leave me by the end of it, or declare her undying love.
