This shirt will be worn by the battle hardened men of the ABs who put thier bodies on the line repeatedly to hold up the reputation of our game against the worlds best. They are the epitomy of excellence, courage and professionalism. Put a teletubbies face on it for all I care. Nothing will erase the proud history of NZ rugby or the feeling of pride in our boys as they take the field. I only ask that if these scumbags want to be associated with our game they raise thier standards and ethics to the level expected of the worlds best.

Actually - the whole thing has just become too frustrating with trolls ruining what should be a fun harmless way to waste a few minutes.
Good luck to you all ( except the trolls ) and go the ABs.
Goodbye all.

HT - I sometimes wonder if wonder if you are the saner but equally Shet stirring alter ego of a certain marsupial troll that stalks these halls brought out after tirades of "6th most popular sport" or "Aussis don't care" fail to get the hoped for reaction. No accusation, just a thought that occurs as you have the same MO of waiting for certain bloggers to appear and goingon the attack.
This forum is for all to express opinions, likes/dislikes and maybe get a laugh but certain individuals feel it was created for the sole purpose of giving them an opportunity to abuse and condemn others.

HT - pull YOUR head in dickhead. Why you feel the need to jump all over other people baffles me and as I seem to be one of your regular targets I am really vetting sick of you.
Forget about Suncorp last year, without Genia running ridiculous lines shepherded by his forwards or that crap penalty awarded against McCaw by ****inson late in the game it sould have been a very different result.
We all know the Wobblies have been great and may be again some day however we don't need you constsanly using that as an excuse to berate others.
Lastly - Wobblies are massive underdogs currently yet just as prior to every game we get these denials of reality by Wobblies in articles like this that leave me wondering what
these guys truly said and whether or not the article is nothing more than journalistic hype.
You really are a **** stirrer.

For anybody questioning the success of future ABs I suggest you look at the ITM. No shortage of class, youth, good management and proven systems. Nz rugby has reached a level of professionalism right across the full spectrum of levels unmatched by other nations. The production line is running so well the only fair thing would be for NZ to have 2 teams, an A team and A+ team.

Why do they write these rubbish articles and more to the point why is this pathetic journalism dished out to us prior to every AB v shackle dragger match? I am starting to think its just a conspiracy by the media to stir up controversy because surely after losing so many times after spouting off like this they would have learned to pull thier heads in. These 2 are either:
a) reciting the company line
b) delusional
Or c) really are that full of themselves

100 games in AB shirt all the more significant because as an AB it means not only best in position for NZ but probably in top 2 or 3 or even best in World for a very long time!

Epic leader, Awesome team. So proud to be a Kiwi.

Sorry should read - NOT top dog. Damn iphone.

And Wally - not cool mate.

Was that twitter rant alcohol fueled? Seems to me like he hasn't been able to handle the pressure since and during WRC especially as defenses have gotten used to him and now is upset at being the top dog. Remember it was not that long ago that Oz media was calling him the best 10 in the world and prior to every game against the ABs there were predictions of how he was going to show up DC. Well it didn't happen and he has infact performed very poorly and like a spoiled brat spat the dummy - publicly. It is not Deans game plan to kick good ball away, throw crap passes and run laterally without any penetration so his comments about not being allowed to play his own game along with that rubbish about facilities which I belive is something his manager came up with as a smoke screen are just obviously excuse to justify his poor performance and childish behaviour. How frustrating was it watching him on the tele? As a Cooper is a Fox employee and a large component in Foxs branding of the games coverage the whole show was scripted as an****covering exercise. The comments made by the panel and the qustions they were asking had a definite Cooper bias and I struggle to understand why he has not been publicly sacked. Somebody must be pulling some string here because he is just not worth all this from a purel contribution to the Wallabies perspective.
