    One of the telling comments early on was Pita Alatini talking about how he was dropped at a time that he thought he was at his peak playing form and had no explanation

    The “journey” John Mitchell was good at that

    that last ep was great!

    Really enjoyed this show, more as it shows these guys who were our heroes, have thier struggles (mentally, physically) and are just blokes like us at the end of the day, just a wee bit better at rugby in thier prime.

    Sensational last episode. Great to see noticeable improvements in loads of them and as we’ve mentioned earlier Flavell, Alatini and Howlett especially should make sure they save Fozzies number into their phones judging from their conditioning.

    I remember an article on Brad Mike back when he was playing. Something along the lines of him being the kind of guy who only needs to lick a postage stamp to put on weight. Will be interesting to see how he goes.

    Glen Osbourne was looking fighting fit when I strolled past him in Welly last year though !

    For those interested, it's on right now.

    Good to see Inga, even though it is a little bittersweet.

    @Dice Heartbreaking to see Inga TBH. Seeing such a man brought to embarrassment at his condition was hard to watch at times. Glen Osborne’s comment to Inga that he had never played with him but was honoured to be there alongside him made our lounge a bit dusty.

    After watching last night's episode, I think Kees Meeuws is that ball carrying prop the ABs have been missing.

    Pretty handy in the gym back in the day, I wonder if he still is ?

    The lads played an East Coast side on this weeks episode and then I see tonight that the East Coast Rising series kicked off which covers their 2021
    Season. A pretty good watch really
