Na, that's cool, appeals to a younger audience too.

[Bones]

Yeah that's a neat idea. And thanks for explaining what gopping means.

[KiwiMurph]

Nice touch by the Blues

Younger? Those sort of shitty rings are USA from the 1830s!

Huge numbers liking this on social media, really leaning into the American Sports, which the younger generation are obsessed with.

[Kruse]

Oh FFS... let's hope that's a one-off gimmick/joke.

Yeah I'm GoM and half British - can't stand that crap. But it's great bling for the younger generation of wannabe Yankees, for sure.

Semi-related

Whether you buy this or not, seems an interesting take on why younger people may not be watching rugby.

Hearing North Harbour lock Cam Christie could possibly be out of Super Rugby 2025 , took 3 head knocks in 2024 and still suffering symptoms
Hopefully he makes a full recovery very scary

Audio interview with Coach Vern -

'We're keen to move forward': Blues head coach unpacks strategy for 2025 season

There's plenty of speculation as to how the Blues will build off of last year's momentum in the 2025 Super Rugby season.

@Chris In an interview at the Launch in Sydney BB said Sotutu had a small knee issue but should be playing soon. I have heard nothing re: Christie but he did not play either of the preseason games.
I like the idea of Clark at 8 but thought Suafua might get the spot first. Maybe Suafoa is covering Lock from the bench due to the locking injuries.

Thanks Mate for the up date.

[Nogusta]

@Daffy-Jaffy they had rings made as well after the trans Ta$man trophy win in...2021?

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Nogusta Not that I am aware of, but the NRL have done them for years e.g.
