Anyone know which hotel ABs are staying in?
Trump Tower I believe.
With the Irish?
Yeah, top and tail.

@Hooroo said in Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown:
There was media pressure on the Irish team to change from Trump towers. I never realised AB's were also going to be there
Yeah I saw that. They were told they should "keep sport and politics separate" by NOT selecting the best hotel that best meets their needs.
These people must actually be retarded.
Not a Trump supporter by any means FYI.
I got told the ABs are starting at Trump too, I'll confirm during the week.

So there's no legal option for those in Australia to watch?
Doesn't appear to be anything on Foxtel. Is that Setander or whatever it's called still around?

No, Setanta is now BeIN Sports and part of your Foxtel package if you have the sports pack, BeIN has three of the Wallabies games I see but no one seems to be showing this weekends Ireland v All Blacks game, can't see the Italy Test next week on either of these either...unbelievable, actually it is believable.

"The new beIN SPORTS channels will also feature expanded rugby coverage from the Northern Hemisphere. Fans will get selected LIVE matches from the Wallabies and All Blacks Spring Tours, every game of the 2017 RBS 6 Nations LIVE and some of the best European club rugby."
The operative word is "selected"

Yeah I saw that BeIN only had Wallabies. Farking bullshit if there is absolutely no way of legally watching the game in Australia.

These fucking fluffybunnies. For the last few years the best AB games have been on Setanta and i have missed them. This year we get Setanta/beIN, it shows a fuck load of rugby, but the big AB games are missing. You fucking piston wristed gibbons. Put the fucking rugby on you bastards.
One possible ray of hope is that the broadcasting of the tour always seems to be finalised very late.

Might be worth giving them a call. Fingers crossed.

The part im confused about ,
Do they have the right to show it and they are electing not to ?
Or they cant show it because they are not allowed ?
Here is their email address anyway , maybe if they get enough emails they might show it ,

Didn't take long. Not even an English newspaper.
Haka: Tradition must be abused, or at least ignored
‘Why should a side coming to Ireland get the first applause by doing a dance’
-
Rambling. Incoherent. Unstructured. Outdated stereotypes. Loose use of facts. Looser use of bullshit. No clear path from opening point to finish.
Wonder if he wants to post on TSF?

@Billy-Tell ah, there we go, it's November tour time, and right on cue we get our first haka troll. This one's a fairly poor effort though, it reads like a parody. If by halfway through you've already got the haka; BOD-gate; preferential treatment; and poaching, you've gone off early. Add in a quick "amateurs against professionals" quip, and you've pretty much got a bingo.
Look son, you're obviously new at this, a good troll comes with subtlety, and hiding it among more honest opinions. This is like using a shotgun, doesn't have the same impact. 3/10, good for a laugh though

‘Why should a side coming to Ireland get the first applause by doing a dance’
Next year I'm going to do a NH bingo game with a prize of a couple Denis Lalane books for the first one to get
a haka troll
mention of BOD nearly dying
A manatee thrashwank about the refs favouring the abs
Three mentions of the aura
An accusation of arrogance
Two mentions of poaching
A mention of "south seas islanders" the only time I ever see this term is when a nh writer/troll is making a cock of himself.
A diatribe about a transgression from the abs that went unpunished
A fuckwitted tweet from Brian Moore.There's a couple more spaces to fill if anyone has any ideas?

with us winning 18 in a row , not so sure will get a - no longer have an aura - story this time, that is what would normally come next

Ireland playing with a lot of passion and heart ?
Mentioning the glorious victory Munster had in 78 ?
Stephen Jones being the kind of fuckwit Moore could only dream about ? I'm picking the Walrus will sink his tusks in on their behalf and using skilful journalistic wit turn everything back to the Poms and their magnificent massive forwards and orgasmic ten man gameplan that these All Blacks and their ridiculous basketball rugby ( I think the Walrus can single handedly lay claim to that term, when he's lying on his death bed bitterly whinging about all the tries scored in the modern game he can turn to the gibbering coot next to him and say he came up with that ) couldn't hope to emulate and how these victories don't mean a thing and they're lucky Eddie Jones and his men don't have a chance to crush them until 2018.Oh, and him specifically mentioning Island Bay as the latest All Black poaching ground cos they got the Saveas from there.

I don't see any lineout issues for us on our own ball, Romano at 2 is safe, Tui or Read can easiliy will ball at 4 or 6 with Franks & Kaino lifting. Add to that all our backup loosies are lineout options - Luatua, Dixon, Squire.
And Ardie. How tall is he?
He's gone back to being a "project" player till he puts on 5kg of shoulders & 3 inches of hair

None of the wobbly games are on FTA.
