Evening lads πŸŒ€πŸ‰ how are we all doing then? Cyclone season properly back and the wind down Masterton way is already trying to rip the clothesline out, so Saturday at the cake tin is gonna be spicy for sure πŸ˜‚ Counting myself in. Bus up with a few of the juniors I coach, God help anyone attempting a cross-field kick into that northerly πŸ™ And I'm calling it now for the bar bet: Ardie's first pilfer somewhere around the 23rd minute, right when they think they've got clean ball ☝️ what a result it'd be if I win that round of NZ$9 pints, been skint all week as a student tbh πŸ˜… she'll be right tho, who else is braving it?

    The old place used to howl like a kettle back in the amateur days and it hasn't lost the touch, so Saturday should be a proper test of who holds onto their hat. I'll be up there bundled up like it's the 80s all over again. And for that pint bet, I'm saying minute 23 for Ardie, seen him poach around then plenty of times before πŸ˜„ loser's shout is $9 a head these days, dearer than my first car warrant.

    Seen it all, lads.

  • Batten down the hatches boys, I'm putting my money on Ardie nicking one around the 34th minute purely cos that's how long it took me to give up and buy my own round last time 🀣 Ultra88 mate you'll need more than an 80s jacket Saturday, wind up there once took my pie clean out of my hands mid-bite πŸ˜‚
    Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿

  • Pie gone with the wind down the Cake Tin πŸ˜‚ mate that's a memory you never live down. I'm in Saturday, coming up from over the hill, just pray the ferry crossing isn't a war crime this weekend πŸ™ Going 22nd minute for Ardie's first pilfer, purely cos you just know our lot never make it easy and he'll have me sweating on my $9 before halftime... ah well, nowt to do 🍺πŸ”₯

  • Wind's already half the team selection and you lot are pricing Ardie like the TAB 🀣 Millie, 51st minute?! He'll have three turnovers by then and you'll be buying everyone $9 pints with a smile. My shout's on the 12th, right when some poor fullback looks up and realises the kick's coming back with interest πŸ˜‚

    Haha @Supporter_Faithful1987 you sound like you've never seen a good match in your life πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. The $9 pint isn't the only thing that's premium, the rugby is too honestly! Ardie isn't just gonna show up for a photo op, he's gonna be absolutely tearing it up no matter the clock, you just need to trust the skill, nah. Worrying about turnovers means you're looking at it like a punter, not a fan. Get behind the Hurricanes, man! What more do you want from this lot? πŸ’ͺπŸ”₯

  • chur Scrum_Legend, 17th's a cheeky shout πŸ˜„ reminds me of back in the day when the old Eden Park crowd would roar for a single turnover, same feeling at the tin when Ardie goes hunting. count me down for the 63rd, seen worse predictions go up on this wall and lose anyway πŸ˜‰ one way or another someone's shouting a round of those $9 pints, see you lot Saturday πŸŒ€
