It looks like BNZ are on the blues collar....
SBW must bank with the Bank of Allah.Well that's a weird one then.
Not weird at all (if it's a bank). Islam prohibits charging interest on money.
Not sure if the tape is a good look though.
Well, they prohibit calling what they're charging interest at any rate ....
Indeed, there are loopholes that are used (quite cynically) Still, not a total surprise a Muslim might not want to advertise a bank.

Surely a player, regardless of their religion can't be allowed to cover up a sponsors logo.
If I was that sponsor I'd be pretty fucking pissed having no doubt paid thousands of dollars for the right to have a logo there.
Cant be different rules for different people, especially religion based ones.

@Damo what about Investec, they do banking too?
Maybe, but their core business is investment advice/brokerage.
I'm not necessarily defending him by the way.

@Northlandallday Needs to work on his throwing though.
First throw overthrow not good, the rest were spot on. Did ya see P-T wild throw and Parsons numerous miss throws.

SBW makes my rugby dick hard. Fuck off @MN5 stop proving you know fuck all.
Nutbrown has out the whistle away and it's a free for all at the moment
That comment is still less gay than liking Nicole Kidman I guess

It happened in cricket..
Michael Jones didn't play on Sundays..
If you're not careful you could lose those players for good.. Sometimes even money can't pay for people's values.. -

I thought that was a better game for the Blues but still too many individual errors. Fekitoa was awesome. Just played tough, kept coming and by the end he and Buckman had won the midfbield battle against the Auckland stars.
Yeah Fekitoa's best game for some time. He was a monster on defence and showed a few nice touches in attack.
Dixon played really well in that 2nd half. Tackled like a demon and covered a lot of ground.
Francis was excellent I thought.
Not much in these teams and in Orcs it could've been the other way round.
A good game to watch.

Ref wasn't great, but that wasn't the reason the Blues lost. They have plenty of talent there but it seems not many rugby brains. Far too many errors and the lineout is utter shit. I heart Umaga, but I'm not sure he's that good a coach. This team just don't appear well-drilled, well led or well conditioned. Must must obscenely frustrating for Blues fans.
Duffie must be close to AB selection surely. His aerial skills alone are pure gold at test level.
