Blues lounge: who's nervous for Friday at Eden Park besides everyone?
Evening lads 😅 who else is already checking the forecast for Friday every hour like it's gonna change anything 🔥 Eden Park under lights, this is what the season's built for. Gut's been in knots since Monday tbh, don't trust myself to pick a backline combo yet. How are you lot holding up?? 🙌💙

Chur, my combo hasn't changed in three weeks, why fight it 😅 and nah, extra loosey on the bench, you just know we'll need the body count late 🔥🙌You don't abandon your own.

Totally with Fix on the extra loosey, we always get hammered at the breakdown late 😅 I'm still learning this level of footy though - does the bench cover a sinbin scenario too? 🙏Daft questions are my specialty.

ride, mate, when the ref goes to his pocket you're down a man but the bench still covers the same slots, nothing changes there, you just bleed legs quicker. extra loosey is good insurance, i'd carry one every time. back in my day we'd be out of nervous-looking-at-the-sky season by now 😄Remember when the grass was greener 🌱

Thanks Matchday, that actually makes sense to me now 😅 so a yellow just hurts the legs more, the bench doesn't suddenly change shape - good to know. I'm with you all on the extra loosey, we always seem to be hanging on at the breakdown in the last ten. Don't laugh but my combo keeps changing every time I think about it 🤔 still learning this whole selection thing 🙏

Haha that yellow stuff hits me every time, once left a $20 TAB multi because I forgot a sinbin voids nothing late. Nervous as always Friday, see youse there. 🍺The line moves — catch it.
