Oh bugger, sorry about that TubbyJ/Tussock/Booji.

Ted.

What's the everyone's vibe on the fast track legislation? Personally the idea that major projects can be done quicker makes sense, however having that final decision rest with a minister seems ridiculous without proper safeguards. It seems like a knee jerk sound bite policy which could terrible imp...

Ah yes, that did cross my mind. Combination of a typo and just plain wrong.

All you rabid Crusaders fans merge into one after awhile.

tubbyj telling it like it is!

Tubby is the same that disgraced and embarrassed himself on the Tags Saders thread, is he not?

By all means, hitch yourself to his wagon.

Agreed. The midfield was generally good though there was some worrying defensive signs early on, I suspect that was more a systems thing manifesting in the midfield.

Ted.

Wrong. :lol: Taranaki was part of the Canes region while Paul Williams was coming up - hence why Dan54 is a Canes fan. Maybe you've heard of the Barrett family? The father and sons played for the Canes. Or a guy called Conrad Smith? There's a whole lot of other players from Taranaki too. Only recen...

Got 3 tonight....
He was only reffing one side tonight. Homer aussie refs trying their best to keep the aussies close on the Table.
Paul Williams was born and bred in Canes country.

But Blews through and through.

Pull that lip in.

Ted.

Williams has lost the plot. He warned them. They gave him no choice. I struggled to see an offence that affected the delivery of the ball in several of the last 5 penalties. He was searching for it, so sure the Canes should have been extra cautious, but the also have to be able to play the game.

Ted.

Yay!

Hard luck Drua. That was tough.

Ted.

Williams has lost the plot.

Ted.

If Judd tries another box kick, I'll scream.

Ted.

That doesn't look good for Aumua.

Ted.

Williams is imaging stuff now.

Ted.

Discipline, for pitys sake.

Ted.

A good lineout drive and try by the Drua.

That was my feel too. I'd like to see the Hurricanes drive off the lineouts a bit more like they did towards the end of the first half.

Ted.

If it suits, I'll see if I can't round up a few of the denizens. Will try for a consensus re timing.

Sorry I find you a bit tedious compared to Eugenics so mostly just skip reading your posts that are over one line.

That wasn't too long, was it. You were able to cope? May I suggest you work up to understanding two lines.

Ted.

Mungo, which day do you prefer, get right in, or later in the week?

Welly Cabal?

Ted.

Another cheap shot from the Drua. The ref needs to deal with that.

Ted.

The Canes are not playing well.

Ted.

Lots of wee late cuffs and hits on the ground.

Ted.

Sounds like a plan.

Ted.

Genuine question - what's the Hurricanes back up front row like? i.e. the front row that's playing in this game. I've not seen them play too much. A step down for sure but all the same, have improved immensely this year and have generally held their own when off the bench. The Drua however are supp...

Though being a worker of long standing, Makes me recall fondly my 4th form social studies teacher who wrote “worker” in cursive in my report after I had pointed it out earlier in the year that it looks like “wanker”. And from that early note Mr Mike was destined to life as a lawyer Played. :lol:

Ted.

I don't think any team goes to Fiji feeling confident of a win there anymore. Especially the Canes. If they think all they have to do is rock up and take the win, they deserve to lose. Given who the head coach is, I'd wager that the Canes are more wary of Fijian Rugby than most... One would hope so...

Copperplate can do that.

Well, I am thrilled to be an elite at long last.

And I've been looking at domestic/small commercial wind turbines.

Yeah, we have a gigantic system that maxes out when it's sunny. Farken hate having to pay the $1.30 supply charge each day. Have you costed out a battery? Yeah, I have. Have been told by a mate in the know to wait until the State Govt brings in a rebate for it or some shit. If I had a battery....ho...

We understand it we just want to know what incentive there is in life to grow tall if everyone is going to be made as tall as you. I guess everyone can enjoy their height then. Unless enjoyment is only possible if one uses their height to look down on others. That'd be pretty sad, don't you think? ...

Can those TPU polls be trusted?

Yep that's coming. Ta. I'm guessing it's considered a tax cut despite the fact that not linking it never seemed to get referred to as a tax increase. Which would have been a more accurate description. Moving the brackets and reinstating interest deductibility is easier to understand as a “tax cut” ...
