    Would have been a little funnier if they didn't overdo the Chiefs thing. Considering there are (rightly) fuck all in the team, and two of them in Cane and ALB have been standouts.

    His main blindspot seems to be picking too many Hurricanes, and shoehorning them in.

    He hasn't picked many Chiefs but he's certainly adopted their winning culture from this season.

    Played 8, won 0, lost 8. I'll chuck as many stones as I like.

    The Foster era is ripe for parody, I think @Victor-Meldrew deserves some sort of award for his piece.

    Fred Dagg would be proud

    Best forwards: A. Ioane, Sotutu (I'd mention Cane and Moody but it seems Cane is already been mentioned and few seem to have noticed Moody's defence and work rate so I must be wrong here).
    Best back: Clarke (Smith has been a bit up and down)
    Summary: Thanks, Rangi!
    Blues.

    A Robertson, Rangi team looks really good right now. I wonder how they get on? Played together, etc.

    Was more "unsuccesful coaches don't necessarily get better", but I can go with it (I'd give Rangi a better than mediocre though).

    Are you sure it isn't flies in your cellar? The weather is warming up now, you should take more care.

    No, I removed all the cantabs long ago. Haven't had flies since.

    Well The Chiefs players bit was meant to be a laugh at supporters who think there's a bias against their local team/S15 franchise in AB selections

    The thing was my attempt to take the mickey out of the current situation after someone suggested A Day In The Life on Fozzie, a la the ones from the 2005 Lions tour. Doubt if I could get anywhere near their standard.

    @mariner4life Rangi wasn't mediocre.
    "He scored a total of 141 test points (14 tries, 25 conversions, 7 penalties) in the 56 tests he played."

    Didn't Rangi work for Robertson, pull the plug halfway into a 2-year contract and go back to Blenheim for family reasons but then decided to coach the Blues and moved to Auckland? Not sure that would go down well.
