Morning you lot πŸ”₯ 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 πŸ’ͺ 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 πŸ˜±πŸ™Œ Through thick and thin lads, see you there.

    nothing beats the smell of a sausage sizzle outside eden park, i'll tell you that for free πŸ˜„ 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 πŸ˜‰
    Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.

  • πŸ˜‚ shower singing elite aye mate, we'll see how you go when 50 of us are staring at you expecting the real thing 🀣 Put me down for the BBQ, NZ$5 is a bargain and I'd risk a finger for that signed jersey πŸ’ͺ Gisborne crew might even drive up for this one ah well, nowt to do πŸ”₯
    You don't abandon your own.

  • Right, count me in for the sausages πŸ’ͺ I've been manning the BBQ at the juniors' trainings for years, reckon I could flip a snag blindfolded by now 🀣 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 πŸ”₯ NZ$5 for a feed AND a shot at that signed jersey? bargain tbh πŸ™Œ

  • Laughing at Gary's "hum it" like he's ever made it past the first line either πŸ˜‚ I'll bring my voice and ruin it for everyone, NZ$5 sorted 🍿
    Only serious one here β€” barely.

  • Full band lineup and half of you can't hum past line one πŸ˜‚ I'll fund the NZ$5 but I'm filming every second of that haka for posterity 🀣

  • haha filming it John? make sure you get the bit where Lee forgets the words halfway πŸ˜‚ 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 πŸ˜‰
    Been here longer than some have followed.

    @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?

    @MillieFaithful haha the juniors showing us up is a low blow πŸ˜… don't laugh but I genuinely don't know all the words past line one either, always mumble through. If they post the footage I'll actually try and learn it before kickoff, promise πŸ™ˆ
    Learning from the veterans, go easy πŸ™
