@Dan54 said in All Blacks - Springbok Tours: Revival?:
I am stoked this maybe coming to reality. The thought of tours even every 4 years with the Boks excites me no end. I just love the idea on top of everything else that the special relationship we have had over the years with SA will come to something. Even said to Mrs although I reckon I don't need a lot more trips overseas, can see me trying to sneak us on a supporters tour to SA!
100% - especially the chance to support the boks in person as they try to finally avenge 96.
Which reminds me. Late morning of the second test, Fitzy’s boys at history’s doorstep. brunch at some hotel in Durban fill to the tits with excited kiwis. Fair few overexcited ones.
Old mate at the table next to us looks rough, probably feels rougher: underestimated Cane’s destructive powers. he’s swaying, obviously got a bastard behind his glassy eyes, and the strain of not spewing the one bite of egg he takes is etched on his green face.
With obvious effort, he lifts the table cloth, revealing an even rougher kiwi. His ABs jersey smeared with chunder he lies quietly moaning curled between the chairlegs. There is no way he’s making it to kickoff.
With impeccable timing, the slightly less rough bloke tuts: don’t worry mate, you’ll be alright. Just pace yourself.
And drops the tablecloth.
