@Crucial said in Uncool music you like:

Uncool for many (not @Tim) I'm not a huge fan of the Silk Degrees era, probably due to being overplayed and everywhere when growing up but it is quite obviously quality in musicianship and worth another listen.

Lots of Boz's discography is really worth picking through though. He came full circle back to his 60s blues band origins over time and his period with the Muscle Shoals backing guys is really good.

That song and album is incredibly evocative for me both when it came out and again when I rediscovered it. Epic and pretty happy times in my life.

@MiketheSnow this can open the door for our CC Premier league teams Cheetahs, Griquas and Pumas.

@booboo glad you've had a good trip. Me and Neps have been waiting for you to reach out to catch up, but assume you're saving us for next time.

Yeah not quite sure how to explain to Mrs Boo that i want to meet these random blokes I "know" on the Internet ...

Unless you're around tomorrow (Thursday evening) up the northern end of the CBD?

We have nothing planned ...

Also get excited about this:

Is that the 9th of June 2024, or the 6th of September? I ssk only as we've just been taken over by a Canadian firm and they do dumb American fate shit.

I assume mm.dd.yyyy because stupid North American shit

@SBW1 tomorrow's match is against the Leopards u19s. Understand that they are longer together and a good tight 5 probably most playing for Uni of North West (Pukke) young guns in the Varsity Cup.
One interesting fact is that Ardi Viljoen and Leopards nr 8 Eben Versters dads were Western Province scrumhalves during the last All Blacks tour in 1996. Pretty sure they,ll have a cold one together.

@Frank Here you go, you can watch the whole thing if you want

anyone who watched it in cinemas when it first came out and didn't think it was one of the most visually amazing things they had seen is a lying piece of shit.

Watching it on TV some 13 years later and judging it is not giving the film its fair due.

will i go see the 2nd one? i will absolutely not.

I'm not a lying piece of shit and that's exactly what I thought. I didn't think the animation etc was much of a step above the likes of Shrek etc.

I do acknowledge though that due to my various eyesight impairments, I've always struggled with 3D glasses which may have impacted it.

And yes, the story is piss weak.

Get the fck outta town!!!

It wasn't that great, not realistic at all. I thought it was average, and that was on top of shit characters and a boring story

Boooo!!!

Truuuuuuuuuuuue!!!

@Kiwiwomble said in Marvel movies and tv shows:

@canefan i think they said something about having to make the doco to make some money so theyre pretty transparent

Its interesting with all the cash they're still not out of the conference

they have sparked a lot of debate though, my club wimbledon is struggling and a lot are wondering if its time to drop the fan owned model as its just too hard

They are second in the league at the moment. So they have a shot

@African-Monkey said in Boxing Thread:

@kiwiinmelb Haha, not that it mattered, but that's boxing for you, the worse you look in fights, the more likely you are to land fights on a fairer playing field.

The funniest case being the start of Wilder v Fury. Fury had come off a 3 year layoff on drugs and alcohol binges with 2 lackluster wins over Sefer Seferi and Francesco Pianeta, Wilder's team thought he'd be an easy touch with obvious name value to strengthen his case for being the A side against AJ at the time, and let's just say it was a cherry pick gone wrong for him.

Fury is like a Guy Ritchie movie just larger and more full on.

@MN5 impressive at only 22.

I don’t know anyone of any age who can do that.

True that - an outlier's outlier.

It’s definitely making sure I don’t miss a garage workout that’s for sure !

Inspirational stuff.

It's Planet Rugby. A quick scan of the comments are more interesting than the team named.

@Stargazer said in 2022 Hawke's Bay Representative Rugby:

Rep rugby results 24 & 26 September 2022:
HB U18 24 - 25 Wellington Samoa U18
HB U16 'A' 10 - 18 Manawatū U16
HB U16 Dev 21 - 55 Poverty Bay U16 (played on Monday)

Jaysus, Hawkes Bay rugby really shat the bed on the weekend. Losing to a Poverty Bay team, even as a development team shouldn't ever happen.

@antipodean am stoked with the one I got. $450 I think it was gave it a good clean and took the display apart and alco wiped it now the display works completely.

Far from good as new but rowing-wise does everything I want. Old model but came up good after a clean. I hate cycling and/or assault bikes so having it in home gym has been great.

Did a challenge the other night get 300m or more in one minute then thirty second break. Did eight rounds arms=cooked. Need to average under 1:40/500m

The post I saw the challenge on tagged ex league player Frank Puletua apparently his record was 42.

A follow up to the domino's tweet.

What I can’t figure out is why didn’t Jango fire one pistol up high and the other down low so Obi Wan couldn’t block ?

This is still to me one of the coolest one on one fights in SW history.

6 point fucking 6 percent! No more sniffing pies for you brah!

I think you have plenty of scope to increase the eats and throw in some treats lol

Some beers wouldn’t go amiss either

Ironically I had 4 beers the same day I had that test! Was the Ritchie McCaw event. So probably 7.6% now.

Ritchie looking in great shape btw. Definitely not looking to copy Brendan Llaney.

From what I’ve seen he looks more triathlete than Rugby player.

Possibly fitter than in his playing days but not sure I’d back him to take down a rampaging Billy Vunipola like back in the day.

If you gain over 1% of body fat with four beers I must be over 100% by now !!!!!

Jeez that is fucken impressive, even against oz playing like tools

do we actually think Fozzie will look at that and consider him a 12 now, he just strikes me as too stubborn

Hopefully the performance was so clear the pressure internally will be to provide Jordie another outing to back up that performance. The ridicule from outside the camp would be enormous.

But I share your opinion.

the top team doesn't run out again for 6 weeks. Everyone will have forgotten by then in a beautiful case of "what have you done for me lately?"

Someone will play 12 against Japan and score 3 tries and will be anointed new saviour

Haven't cleaned out the shed enough, but at least this is still getting used. Got some rings for that gymnast look.
PXL_20220925_055802009.jpg

The Jordan De Goey saga continues. He’s a very good big body mid and Saints could do with one or two of those. But he seems a bit of an egg.

AFL do it better than any other sport in OZ and know how to stay in the news even after their big dance.

@Victor-Meldrew said in So what did we learn from Bled2?:

teams who've analysed his play at 12 first

knowing something is coming and doing something about it are two very different things. Big body running straight is a key rugby requirement at the top level. Then if they doubleteam/stack a defence, space is created elsewhere.

Bring it on, JB at 12, Hayman at 8, 2023 is ours

Dagg to 10 and Messam to centre. Mealamu to openside

*Messum

5- Jordie
6- Lomu
7- Mealamu
8- Hayman
9- Cruden
10- Dagg

12- Ardie
13- Messam

DMac as reserve halfback?

I was going to put Ben Blair as halfback, but didn’t want to trigger some of the haters in here

@MiketheSnow Looks like a scam journal, it isn't indexed anywhere. Besides, vaccine reviews would not be published in a journal of "insulin resistance".

I'd hope Abraham Pole gets one of the loosehead spots. Just not sure of the contract lengths for DLB or Ayden Johnstone. Think Abraham Pole has more upside than both of them. I'm just interested to see whether they have a trick up their sleeve for the 10 jersey for next year or if they will be running battlers again.
