Re: Do you do the 'pronouns' thing at the end of work emails?
I get it for names like Sam (she/hers) or Karol (he / him) but it is pretty sad to see a John or Greg (he /him) like it was a cliffhanger from the name I find it quite handy to have He / Him in my email signature as I have a rather unusual first name.

Re: OFFICIAL CANES V CHIEFS SEMI FINAL MATCH THREAD!
Very enjoyable game of rugby that will now have me going to YouTube to judge the Jacobsen decision as I didn't clock it down at the pub.
I went to the Warriors game last night and thought Mt Smart was a solid stadium, albeit quite small. No wonder they pack it out each home game.

Re: Premiership rugby final - Northampton Saints vs Bath
Couple of post hangover thoughts from me. 1 - Really disappointed by how Saints managed the ref. Same guy as we had last Friday, and we appeared to spend the match presenting exactly the same sort of picture, leading to us giving away way too many penalties. 2 - After we scored those two first half...

The Blues are farewelling him on the socials so looks like a done deal.
He will love life in Japan. The locals won't care about his lack of work ethic when he runs 40 metres with five native players hanging on for dear life.

Re: Premiership rugby final - Northampton Saints vs Bath
The game would be better served by a 20 minute red. The player does not return but can be replaced by a member of the reserves.
The original red card was meant for highly egregious malicious acts on the rugby field - not for accidental collisions in a fast paced contact sport.

And a 20 min red card will not take those things away. Players will try to be just as much careful about hitting high because no one would want a red card. This is not a NH, SH thing.

Re: All Blacks 2024
The problem with Ardie as captain is that if the ref talks to him 12 times all 12 times he will reply saying yes sir, no sir, three bags full sir.
He doesn't have the mindset to challenge calls like McCaw did or Barrett does.
He is not a captains ringpiece. Great player though.

Even great halfbacks like Aaron Smith had deficiencies in his game, to coin a John Hart term.
Pakia will confirm, but I believe his team's retrieval rate from his box kicks came in at around 2%.
