Want to see class rewatch Kane getting his ‘match winning’ 100.

Class is awesome.

Trophies are better.

Amazingly Warner isn’t even the biggest fluffybunny in that photo

No one should go to work and not expect to make it home safely. I guess we are lucky at least these are so rare, first instance since 2009 accoutring to the media.

I'm pleasantly surprised by that stat. It feels more regular.

Yeah it is a reassuring stat but then any lose is terrible. I’d imagine other parts of the world it’s a daily occurrence.

Just the 33rd in NZ. Sadly for my family, as a few ferners are aware, one of those was my Grandad.

Shit like this always makes my Mum in particular pretty sad so I best give her a bell. Never nice to see her fathers name on the news.

No words to describe the piece of human filth who committed this latest offence so I won’t even bother trying.

What if someone in a wheelchair needed a dump while Aaron was off having fun?

Rugby players are worse than Hitler.

@NTA rarely do either of us ever take our phones into our room, we dont use iPads much either and never for watching stuff in our room (we do have a TV in there though) more so since Miss 11 stood on one of them and has cracked the screen.

TR Jnr is pushing the boundaries on his phone, but I say we dont have ours in our room, so neither do you.

Ex and I got the boy an Iphone for his 12th birthday last friday. Needless to say there's already an absolute shitload of Star Wars and Bond memes getting sent. Just totally over the top. Some of them aren't even that funny.

I suspect he'll get annoyed at the constant bombardment and block my number sooner or later.

Do the ABs need him for the 2019 RWC ? For the back three, they have : Ben Smith, Israel Dagg, NMS, Jordie Barrett, DMac, Naholo, Ioane, Savea, Havili, Duffie and Tamanivalu, plus maybe Nanai, Alaimalo, Will Jordan and Caleb Clarke if they can step up.

No

Bit of a long winded rambling post but you made your point eventually I guess

@Machpants said in Aussie Rugby in general:

When he posts it loud and proud on social media, it is everyone's business

He broke the Inclusion Policy of AR (2014) that he signed up to, just the same as everyone who signs up to specific behaviour for their job. He got a warning last time - apparently not this time

If everyone just went about their daily lives and ignored his post the world would be a better place. Instead everyone is running around drawing attention to it, magnifying the problem they assert exists. Does anybody think sacking him will stop him posting religious nonsense?

What does the ARU think his fellow religious PIs think about this outcome?

I disagree with this 100%.

He’s in an incredibly privileged position, even by pro sportsman’s standards. He’s been clearly warned to tow the line when he’s done this in the past.

He hasn’t.

He’s upset a whole bunch of sponsors who help foot the bill for his massive salary.

Fuck him and all he stands for.

who went and got coffee this morning?

The other half did. I've learnt to tolerate instant coffee.......Jesus. What next ? popping to the bottler for Lion Red or Waikato Draft if I'm not careful.

In happier news I get to see my boys this avo for the first time in a month and I CANNOT fucken wait

that's awesome mate. a real advantage to today

Damn straight. Without delving too much into my personal life the ex and I mutually decided that it was too tough under Level 4 for the boys to see me. If we had a more volatile relationship ( which we don't , she's great and we get on brilliantly ) I would have definitely argued it as I'm assuming lots of people did. Sunny day in Welly, I'm shooting out there this avo with rolls, salami and fizzy drink. Magic.

On the piss in town last night and I have to say that every single Lions fan is an absolute GGC. Great folk to talk shit with. Such a decent bunch. My Mum is a fan too after getting her car stuck on the ledge of a drive she was using to turn around in. A group of about 6 of them lifted her car ( Suzuki swift ) back onto the roadside. Legends.

Town is just pumping. 2005 all over again, only difference is my fucken head aches way more than it did at 28.

@jegga said in Don't ya love it when...:

I was out mowing my lawns and some little shit threw a bottle at me, it missed thank fuck. I rang the cops but I didn’t get the license plate of the car, while I was on the phone the car came past again and stopped at the give way sign. Got the plate, colour of the car and description of the little shit driving.

It was me. I'm sick of you constantly dissing the Hutt.

Dude she's honestly super ordinary with no chest

Good enough for me.

@mariner4life There is no worse type of person than the self described social media influencer.

Being ‘famous’ and an ‘influencer’ online is like being rich in Monopoly. It’s not real.

They're even lower than reporters for Stuff.co.nz

pfffft now who's being harsh ?

Women are so cruel.

@MN5 are you kidding?! Oh dear, oh dear oh dear.

Well, she's not a dead gay guy at least.

@antipodean annoying ginger, who has annoying songs that stick in your head.

Move over Belinda Carlisle, you have competition.

Ironic

Is it possible he could be a gorgeous woman from Warsaw and not a toad from Tauranga?

Ah Baron. Getting a grilling and having no right of reply.

In other words exactly like when any one of us disagreed with him and our replies got deleted.

Bitchy...

Nah just reminiscing.

Ha yes....not that I got defensive or anything

There's no room for sensitivity on the fern.

No worries - I think the baron took most of the over-sensitivity with him when he left.
