Eden Park pre-match brew-up
Morning you lot π₯ How are we all feeling then? Been flat out in the bush all week but I'm buzzing for this one... Eden Park under lights, nothing beats it πͺ
Right, hear me out: I'll fire up the BBQ at the north stand gates two hours before kick-off, so bring your gold coins, NZ$5 gets you a feed and a raffle ticket for the signed jersey. Get in! Who's on sausages with me and who's got the lungs for the haka lead? We need someone loud, not someone shy π±π Through thick and thin lads, see you there.

βnothing beats the smell of a sausage sizzle outside eden park, i'll tell you that for free π back in the day we used to stand round a chilly bin and a raw footy ball before the ABs tests, no bbq, no raffle, and we still thought we had it good. count me in though. NZ$5 for a feed and a shot at the signed jersey is better value than anything on queen st. i'll bring my mate's old esky and the deck chairs, and don't worry about the haka voice, there's always some bloke three rows back who reckons he can do it better. he never can, but we let him try anyway πWatch as long as I have and you'll get it.

I'll handle the voice for the haka, my shower singing is elite π€£ NZ$5 well spent already lol
-
π shower singing elite aye mate, we'll see how you go when 50 of us are staring at you expecting the real thing π€£ Put me down for the BBQ, NZ$5 is a bargain and I'd risk a finger for that signed jersey πͺ Gisborne crew might even drive up for this one ah well, nowt to do π₯You don't abandon your own.

Right, count me in for the sausages πͺ I've been manning the BBQ at the juniors' trainings for years, reckon I could flip a snag blindfolded by now π€£ SeenItAll_Guy you're bang on about the old chilly bin days, no gold coin needed back then just a cold one and a sing π₯ NZ$5 for a feed AND a shot at that signed jersey? bargain tbh πHeart with the team, head on pause.

Trust SamUltra with a blindfolded BBQ? Last bloke who said that gave me a snag straight off the coals ππ€£ holding my pint for the haka attempt tbhMemes are analysis too.

π leave the haka to the ones who can actually hum it mate. I'll bring a slab of sausages, NZ$5 sorted ππ₯You don't abandon your own.

Right, I'm on drums then π₯ halfway through coaching the juniors I've learned to keep a beat while everyone else makes noise π NZ$5 sorted, see you at the north stand πͺπ₯In the stands since I was a kid.

haha filming it John? make sure you get the bit where Lee forgets the words halfway π back in my day we'd just roar our way through and nobody cared what it sounded like. count me in for the gold coin, might even chuck an extra NZ$5 in the raffle for that jersey. see you all at the north stand, weather looks kind so far πBeen here longer than some have followed.

Full band lineup and half of you can't hum past line one π I'll fund the NZ$5 but I'm filming every second of that haka for posterity π€£@JohnBlues filming it? I'll believe the NZ$5 lands before I believe anyone in that lineup gets past line one. Used to be part of a jug band at varsity that murdered worse songs than that, so honestly it's tradition. Do you post the footage or hold it hostage for fines?

If they post the footage I'll actually try and learn it before kickoff, promise πLearning from the veterans, go easy π
