    A bit weak compared to a competition like the Top 14, apparently, they had 5 million people tune into the final alone.

    @nzzp said in All Blacks Vs France, Test One, Dunedin:

    There's really only downside for the ABs - a win is expected; if they struggle or (god forbid) shit the bed, it'll be flaming torches and pitchfork time

    Pitchforks will be out regardless....ABs are in a no win situation for this game.

    Thrash them - played shit, poor skills, poor decisions
    Close win - should have thrashed them
    Loss - should have thrashed this shit French team

    I believe we won last 2 out of 5 against France.
    If they send a B or C side, thrash em.
    If they send an A side thrash em more... the cheese-eating surrender monkeys ..

    @Canes4life the old one they used to do (c 2000 - 2010, player values fluctuated, you had like 3 trades a round I think (which wasnt ideal, especially with so many byes in current format, so what they could do is allow unlimited trades on players in bye week or listed as injured, subject to your salary obviously)

    That's the rock n roll lifestyle though.

    Plus they were asking people to handle them with care before they'd made 50 so the didn't have the right mindset.

    Now 50 year olds are down at the gym squatting 150kg - apparently.

    Not sure about their gym stats but if ever a group was greater than the sum of their parts it was them. Handle with Care is a great song.

    Really? I don't think the group produced anything better than what the individual sum parts produced on their own. Well, TBF I can't really comment on Jeff Lynne as I don't really know his stuff.

    Actually now I think about it George Harrison and Tom Petty did a few bangers.

    The big O had a wonderful voice.

    Never liked ELO or Bob Dylan ( when he sang his own songs )

    But yeah my point is the fact I really, really like Handle with Care. Such a great track

    I was going to get pissy and say start your on thread, but every notification gives me a reason to re read this thread and bring back the good times.

    I injured my ankle so had 6 month out. Back in now, Althoigh I’ve got an extremely tight hammy so currently just on the rower. Joys of being old.

    Awesome work @African-Monkey. You should be very proud of yourself.

    Yeah I do apologize as you did start the thread. I was going to start a while back, but saw you had the same interest and thought I'll come in and be a dick and blend in and join you.

    I do hope you make a full recovery and hope you can make it back on the roads again. You were making some really good progress with your times.
