    Can the South Central Vikings / Crusaders Light's solitary fan please stick to his own thread? He's got a giant choke job to oversee.

    Ainley and Geldenhuys in the tight five for BoP and May for Hawkes.

    Great to see the Mako doing their bit to bolster the minor provinces! 🙂

    I went to Nelson once, in 2001, it's like a budget Napier, but I presume I'm considered from Ta$man due to that visit.

    If those Wellington fluffybunnies don't hurry up and name their team, we'll have walked off with the trophy while their selection panel is still shitting themselves in the toilets! 🙂

    Another reason why we need a visa system!

    Unless you have NZ-AUS type free movement agreement with your Crusaders big brothers, Canterbury, you'll be back in the 3rd division within three years.

    @Chris-B Excuse me but the Bays component of Nelson Bays comes from the Golden Bay Motueka part of the combined former Nelson and Golden Bay Motueka RFUs. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the Nelson section of the name and is thus disqualified from even being considered as a possible challenger for the The Bay title had they not then subsequently combined with the Marlborough RFU to become Ta$man becoming even further removed!

    @Higgins If we want that Bay title, we'll just send a Takaka-Collingwood combined team to take it! 🙂

    This is just like the Austro-Hungarians!

    We'll just give those pesky Serbs a quick slap and we'll be grand...

    @Higgins Unfortunately not.

    The publican's wife burned it to the ground about 30 years ago. I think due to his extra-marital meanderings.

    @Higgins You are indeed a little out of date there. Fire was 1994.

    Last time I went past (around 20 years ago) there were still burnt remnants though.

    I can recall some of the same in the very near vicinity of the Rat Trap coming back from a Blues v Takaka club game about 1988. Although in this particular instance neither the publican nor his missus was involved. Come to think of it the Blues Senior Reserve team had a win on the field that day too!

    Going back to tonight's game that I will be heading to shortly - it's very windy in the Bay at the moment - easing tonight but should still be a south-west breeze for the game.

    @KiwiPie Wind aint too much of a problem but is their any chance of a wet field or rain during the match?

    Narawa

    What's the view on Narawa at fullback? Good enough for Super Rugby?

    @Tim

    Couldn’t judge him last week, he wasn’t really tested as a fullback. He carved up like he has all year on the wing though

    @KiwiPie said in Mickey Mouse Final: The Bay vs Hawkes:

    The big question is - does this count towards the Battle of the Bays? Or like the Ranfurly Shield, is it only up for grabs in regular season games?

    Well Nathan Harris thinks it counts. He just said that on the tv coverage
